Free Motion Quilting - An Applique Quilt

My week has had a fabulous start, I hope yours has also! I started the week by custom machine quilting this fabulous quilt made by Nancy, I am so impatient when it comes to hand work, so this type of hand applique is always so amazing, and inspiring to me.
Nancy sent me this beauty and asked me to custom machine quilt it for her. She didn't have anything in mind, just wanted the applique to stand out. 
So, I outlined all of the applique and then machine quilted a small echo with some fun little swirls. Then in the border blocks I added some feathers and some textures in the nine-patch blocks. Even though they don't stand out much in the pictures they turned out gorgeous.
Thanks so much for letting me machine quilt this beauty Nancy! Your work is jaw-dropping amazing!

  1. I love that you let the delicious appliqué take front and center over the (also gorgeous) quilting. In doing this, I think your work and skill and talent harmonizes with that beautiful quilt. A lovely balance--thanks for showing this to us!
