People often think that for me to quilt for them they have to have a pieced top. With being the feature quilter at the Field of Quilts I wanted to show that a plain piece of fabric could be quilted and be striking and beautiful.
I also wanted to take it a step further and show them that other fabrics besides cotton could be used with fantastic effect. This is a piece of green synthetic silk(?) that I bought out of a remnant bin.
The thread was my favourite Aurifil yukky green. The pattern used, there's only one, is a Kathy Olson from Just Quilting Designs, with a bit! of McTavishing in between motifs.
This one is unbound at the moment, I ran out of time.
