This is just the 3rd quilt that my client, Nadine, has made. But it's obvious that she's done a lot of other kinds of sewing. She is a true technician. Points were crisp. Seams were flat. Everything was square and straight. It is a real joy for a quilter to work with something like this!
This is what I would consider a mid-level custom quilting job. Not too ornate. I did some differentiation in the body of the quilt by applying two different fill designs to alternating blocks, but I didn't go crazy making every single block unique and intricate. I added a little bling to the setting triangles around the perimeter, which I think turned out really well. Loved playing with a new curved "boomerang" ruler I recently purchased from Deloa Jones.
All quilting is free-motion, hand-guided on a longarm quilting machine.
Every other block was filled with this swirl-feather filler that I learned from Judi Madsen via YouTube.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3rys6b_NsHZ91lvh6fqPFpImLVM8wlOisKFQm3a7Xl0L1JzjOr5xqVy3xR-GxFUbyW18Qr2T0UFV8TIijM6mAE10vcjxEWZLn8L5dQD5sYPkrA6Y51n7FfOj0XnHPSIn1xXoLJ63uRw0/s640/IMG_9943.JPG)
I tried a new-to-me fill pattern that was modeled on a design I saw by Christina Camelli. Beads on a string, with wavy lines between strings. A tiny bit time-consuming, but not bad, and I think the effect is worth it!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3cWMUrrWdPtfWs8tbUV-cFI4-vQwLVXigx4NtHFTLC3a0Om2xZFsqzfHfvwXXL_2hRD67m_lXGAnBmt-2WXqpaRjkw3YcmRAX3znKzqk-tvulB-D1CbDR2FC0NwM6aQbdK0_rZNg88gA/s640/IMG_9945.JPG)
Nice quilting choices! I like your approach to the quilting on this.
