Swoon for Genny!

Genny pieced this adorable version of the popular Swoon quilt, I love her version, it's so cheery!
When Genny brought me her quilt she told me I could machine quilt it however I wanted, she just wanted custom machine quilting. I remembered seeing one that Angela Walters had machine quilted and I loved the way she quilted the background, so I took inspiration from Angela and added in a little bit of my own ideas and this is the final result! I love it!
Of course, here is the photo eye-candy, how could I not take a bunch of pictures of this quilt!
As I was finishing up the machine quilting yesterday the light was shining just perfectly through the studio window, how could I not get a photo of the cool texture in this quilt!
And...the backing, sometimes solid quilt backs are my favorite! I love when they become almost as awesome as the quilt top!

  5. Wow. I just purchased your Free Motion Quilting book 30 minutes ago. Will I be able to do what you do when I finish reading it? Lol. Wish me luck!

  6. Gorgeous, Natalia!! You are such an inspiration. Am getting a new machine today! And I have your book handy so I can practice, practice, practice, then attack the laundry basket full of flimsies on my closet floor. You have such vision when it comes to machine quilting. I hope I can build upon my skills and do a quarter of what you do someday!

  7. Just stunning. I can't wait to get started on my own Swoon quilt. I know that I'll be referring to this one when it comes time to quilt it.
