Churn Dash Quilting

Every stitch I quilt is one more stitch towards being finished. 


This week the left side border and two churn dashes were quilted. 


Also the bottom of two white squares were quilted.

I hope you have a good week with your slow stitching projects!

I just love your quilting. This is one gorgeous quilt!

Quilter Kathy said...

Are there parts of these designs that you prefer to stitch over others? I think that feather design might be challenging?
Looks beautiful as always!

Karen said...

What do you use to mark your quilting design onto the quilt?

I very much like the quilting designs that you have chosen. Keep stitching.

Gretchen Weaver said...

I've been hand quilting so long that I can twist and turn in just about any direction. I like all the designs.

Gretchen Weaver said...

Thank you. I'm having fun with it.

Gretchen Weaver said...

Thank you so much, you are very kind.

Gretchen Weaver said...

I feel happy whenever I hand quilt, and relaxed and content. Glad I made you smile today.

Oh, the crispness of the colors and the quilting--I am totally in love with this quilt! It makes such a stunning piece of art while you're working on it in the frame. I never learned to quilt on a floor frame. I had one for awhile, but I had learned to quilt on a hoop and just couldn't get the hang of the bigger frame. Your in-process pictures of this quilt make me wish I had kept trying on the frame.

With the introduction to the "modern" quilts, it is such a joy to see how beautiful a 2 color quilt with repetitive blocks be made into a beautiful heirloom with the quilting. I just need to come take lessons!! Absolutely beautiful Gretchen!

Hanne said...

Your quilt looks wonderful - you are very skilled :-)

Kate said...

Gorgeous as always - and you're right, every stitch counts!

This is going to be beautiful, a real heirloom. How about putting up a little video of you stitching on it to show us your technique? You are clearly very skilled, it would be nice to see you at work x

Gretchen Weaver said...

Thank you. I may be very skilled in hand quilting but I wouldn't have a club how to make a video with my camera. I know it is possible. Perhaps when our daughter visits this summer, she can make a video,if she's here before the quilt is finished anyway.
