Whilst I have done wall hangings before with stitch in the ditch quilting, this is my first ever quilt. I made it for my mum for mothers day, and she loved it!!! The designs are all built ins from my Brother quatro 6000D. Cheers Claire

Thank you, I got my inspiration for the quilting from some of the infinity quilt block designs. Cheers Claire

18167Claire, this is lovely work - as usual for you - I can see why your Mum loved it, too. What are the colors in it - this picture seems to me in the yellow & brown tones - but not sure that is the picture or your quilt color?

Thank you Shirlene. The central colour is a light cream and the border is purple with a narrow emerald green slick between the 2. The pansies are purple, pink and yellow and the lattice work and my quilting are all done in gold. Unfortunately different computers display images in some funny colours! Cheers Claire

I'm not sure if they are on that brother card as it isn't one I have, but yes the designs are lovely!!! 2010 is my year to get into quilting, I already have the fabric for another one. Hugs Claire

70767This is great. Love your pattern. Where did you get the big fan stitches? What pattern is it? I'm also new at quilting. I do alot of embroidery, but finished my first quilt in April 2010. Colleen Marie

Hi Colleen, the fan patterns are my own creation using mainly straight stitching with an inbuilt fancy stitch every now and then!!! I'm not confident with stippling yet so I decided I needed to come up with a design using straight lines. The central star is just straight lines at 6mm intervals, and the fan shape is at 20mm intervals on the inside edge and they all terminate in a point at the outside edge. Cheers Claire
