My finish for today is the little Sister quilt. Here it is before washing.
And here are some after washing.
And the back.
I learned that I need to use more registration marks when doing a border like this. My scallops are very uneven, but they really don’t show much on the front anyway. Usually, I prefer the look of a quilt after washing. In this case, I liked it better before. If I hadn’t washed it, my phone would still be alive as well!
This is the most intense custom quilting I have attempted. I learned so much doing this. It was definitely worth the time involved.

Beautiful quilting on this! The choice of quilting patterns fits so well. Congrats on the finish.
Wow Katy, great job! I’m also impressed how quickly you got it done.
What a beautiful quilt. Only you would know if it wasn’t perfect. It is good to hear the LAQ’s need to practice, too….just like the rest of us.
OMGoodness! Your quilting is so pretty! Beautiful Job! Margie/NY
Oh my goodness ! This is so GORGEOUS! Your quilting looks amazing. It’s so beautiful. Hugs,
Your quilting is AMAZING!! What a perfect design for the white spaces. You go, Girl.
Absolute PERFECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the backing…WOW!!
Have you ever posted about the rulers you use/like the best. I love the work you did on this quilt. I want to get started on ruler work, but because of the expense, I want to make sure that I buy the most “useful” first.
Beautiful job, what a neat backing!
So beautiful! You did an amazing job on the quilting.
Katy,
Your quilting is to be admired!
What are your preferred threads to use in the bobbin and thru the needle?
Do you have a preferred batting?

this is beautiful! thanks for sharing
I am in love with this! The design is perfect for those little squares! Your quilting is outstanding! It’s gorgeous!
The feathered diamond quilting looks great on this quilt. It really complements the piecing and the resulting quilt is fantastic!
I think the custom quilting was worth it. I love the motif you used in the white negative spaces paired with the simple continuous curves in the patchwork. Congrats on your finish

Wow…wow…and wow…!!!!! Gorgeous quilting !!
You can proud of your work !!

Oh wow, that looks so good. That quilting is wonderful! Thanks so much for showing us.
Lovely quilting! I enjoy seeing your machine quilting, I don’t machine quilt just hand quilting, but I still can get inspiration from your work. 😄
This is amazing. The grid work in the middle really stands out.
Sounds like you weren’t able to resurrect your phone? I’m so sorry. But I do love this quilt … it’s fabulous!
