Leaded Glass Quilt

I hope all is well with you all, I have had a crazy busy couple of weeks, with traveling, and preparing for quilt market! I'm getting back into my groove and working on some custom machine quilting

A few months ago I had the opportunity to machine quilt this gorgeous Leaded Glass quilt for Tracey of TraceyJay Quilts. Tracey designed and made this quilt. The pattern was just released in the current issue of American Quilter Magazine.

I was so honored when Tracey sent me this quilt and asked me to machine quilt it for her. She basically gave me the go-ahead to machine quilt it as I wanted. When I saw those large white borders I knew I had to machine quilt some awesome feathers!

As I began the machine quilting I shared this picture on Instagram, I always think it's so much fun to see how machine quilting can bring a quilt to life!

Besides the feathers, I machine quilted swirls, some stitch-in-the-ditch, and some melons, along with pebbles and swirls as background fillers.

Thanks so much Tracey for letting me machine quilt your gorgeous quilt! It's a stunner for sure!

  6. I'm not into pink or purple fabrics, but I did gasp when I saw this. Wow-see its stuff like this that convinces me I need to work with those colors anyway. Stunner is exactly the word that came to mind-had to laugh when you used it in your write up. Thanks for sharing this wonderful quilt.
