Cheryl made this beautiful medallion quilt and sent it to me for some edge to edge machine quilting. I know that I mentioned this yesterday, but I truly believe there is a time and a place for edge to edge machine quilting and also custom quilting.
Something that I always ask my clients when helping them decide how to quilt their quilts is how the quilt is going to be used. If a quilt is going to be used, and washed a lot then, as much as I LOVE custom machine quilting, edge to edge quilting might be a better fit. It might hold the quilt together better and it'll save you a bit of money.
Cheryl asked me to machine quilt this quilt with some type of a leaf and vine type pattern. I selected one that I thought was the best fit, and I'm really happy with how the machine quilting turned out.
