Post 38-Quilt Market Quilt #2
This beautiful quilt was also featured in the RJR Fabrics booth at Quilt Market 2014. It is called Parasol. Very fitting, don't you think?
I did a little research on parasols and tried to stay true to their feminine qualities in the quilting design. I chose a curved scallop design to connect all the points and used feathers and crosshatching to fill the open space of the quilt. However, I also wanted to accentuate the 3-D look to the parasol, so I added some simple angled and wavy lines.

ReplyDeleteMarilyn, Thank you!! You made my day! I appreciate your kind words so much! Regardless of whether I quilted a quilt yesterday or 10 years ago, they are all treasures to me and I'm grateful when others see them as treasures too. :)
DeleteFabulous 3 dimensional feel! And I love the colors. Great the way the dimensionality gives it energy and the colors and flowers are relaxing.
