It's done! The first king-sized quilt I've quilted on my APQS George! This quilt was so satisfying to work on. I like to try different techniques on each quilt, and I sure got a lot of practice hours in on this one!
I used a free-hand all-over holly leaf design in the center of this one, but followed a diagonal grid versus the random meandering holly leaf design I used in the previous Christmas quilt (here). I didn't count them all, but that's a lot of holly leaves.
I used a twisted rope design in the inner border, and straight lines/piano keys in the outer border.
Thanks to the Quilt Suspension System I installed, this 104" square quilt was a joy to work on.
I used a pattern called Wander Through the Woods by Hope Nelson, but I enlarged both the size and number of the trees and added borders to scale it up to a king size.
So that is the last of the quilts I committed to finishing before Christmas. Now I can enjoy the season and start a new project.
Merry Christmas!
Awesome job Kathy. Your daughter will love it.
