Okay, today really IS Friday! And this is what went on the frame last.

I’ve had this top hanging around for a while because I couldn’t decide how to quilt it. I decided to do my random grid with occasional loops design. It requires turning the quilt after quilting all the lines one way.

I don’t measure anything or worry about straight lines. Here it is after the lines one way are complete.

And here it is after the second pass.

Here is the back. I hand dyed this piece a couple years ago.

And here is the added texture after washing.

I am linking up with Confessions of a Fabric Addict for “Can I get a Whoop Whoop?” for finally finishing this UFO!
Until next time…





I am interested in getting a long arm- I think the quilting done on them is beautiful! How did you decide on your brand? Is the stitch regulator worth the cost?
I do have a stitch regulator but you definitely to not need it for this. I have done this both ways and prefer to stitch this without.
This is beautiful! I love how you add the little loops in an otherwise very geometric design!
Do you use a stitch regulator with your long arm?
Beautiful!!! Love your quilting, too!
Great quilt, and I love your quilting design! Did you just freehand the straight lines on your frame, or do you have an inhibitor of some sort?
Whoop whoop!!
Wow, that is an awesome quilt! Love the little loops in there every once and while. Beautiful!!
Great job quilting. I love those little circles thrown in with all of the straight lines.
The loops add that little unexpected. Like tjd one in the orange cross. Nice finish!
I agree with everyone… just stunning and so wonderful after washed. GREAT idea to throw in the curly cues to add a touch of whimsy! Go you!!!
I really like the unexpected circles quilted in the straight line quilting.
This one turned out great! I love how you threw perfection out the window so to speak on your quilting.
Fabulous quilt!
BRAVO!!! What a great quilt. The quilting is perfection.
beautiful job…wonderful symmetry throughout!
I love the quilting! Great idea!
Great job! Those loops really add to the quilting design.
I love it. Great quilting idea and I love how it looks after washing.
