This smallish quilt took ages to quilt, as I stitched in the ditch around EVERY coloured square and the borders. Once I’d done that, I stitched various largish motifs inside each large on-point square, then did a simple meandering stipple in the white space and in the border.
Just some simple stuff.

Threads used:
- Top: Robison-Anton (40 wt rayon? maroon/burgundy for the stitch in the ditch, and ‘Old Gold’ for the stippled border); Fil-Tec Glide for the white space stipple (40 wt trilobal polyester, ‘Cream’ colour 20001)
- Bottom: Magna Glide Classic pre-wound (Lead Gray)
Again, your work is lovely. It is a nice quilt, but the finish is perfect.
ps–Could you move Australia a little closer to the United States so you can quilt one for me?
Looks wonderful Rhonda!! Worth all the effort to achieve that effect.
We had a busy day today at the CQ Bee. Although the main emphasis wasn’t on kitting up tops we still got a few done and there are a few that I thought you might enjoy…. will get down your way yet!!
Cheers Gwen
