This quilt involved lots of different ideas. As a medallion-style layout, it features a showcase design in the center, and then builds outward from the middle. I used ruler work in the stars. Swirls in the green lattice strips. Triple cross-hatching in the large squares. Curved cross-hatching in the cream odd-shaped spaces.
My quilting is all free-motion, hand-guided on an APQS longarm quilting machine.
Curved cross-hatching in the cream odd-shaped spaces, with serpentine in the curved, navy blue spaces.
Ruler work in the leafy half-square triangles. Some swirls in the creamy, leafy squares. And cross-hatching in the gridded squares.
I outlined the flower border and left it unquilted. Then applied an alternating piano-key treatment in the outer borders. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjvUjj02gKgMRrUkwOTuW1PXitvstnuQOThhAs5XGqns3bC_2ocQcL8AYG-F7aFmrzhVQRYpL7SkB9By5FHE-8vhMsrdSSl7eI3mn3J-wihMnNtWuz52rHwqEFZZO48jYn9QoktvS7rg1n/s640/IMG_4010c.jpg)
