I just got my quilt back from my quilter!
My quilter is my good friend
Juli Stubbs and she always
does a fantastic job!
When she asked how I wanted it
custom quilted...
because she always does
that for my applique quilts...
I just kept thinking that
my Prim Quilt was more suited to
a simple repetitive pattern
that was used for hand quilting
back during my great grandparents time.
So I asked Juli if she would
do a Baptist Fan and
of course she said yes!
I am so happy with that choice!
I think it fits the style
of the Prim Quilt perfectly:)
I took a lot of photos
from several angles
so that you could see everything:)
I also wanted to keep the label simple
for this quilt...
so I cut another of the star blocks
that we made for the corners...
And stitched it up like this.
For the inside star background
I used CLOUD which is a
Confetti Cotton Solid
by Riley Blake Designs.
Cloud matches all of my fabrics perfectly.
I love this block!!!
I used a Micron Pigma Pen
to write my name and also
the name of the sew along and the date:)
This is the Prim wide back print color way
that I chose for the back of my quilt
and so I chose prints from Prim
to match accordingly
when making my Star Label.
I treated my star block
just as I would a Sew Simple Shape
and sewed it with the interfacing
so that it could just be appliqued
onto the back of the quilt...
Like this!!!
Of course TOBY had to get in on
the action (as usual)
as I was taking pictures.
I think he looks handsome
in his navy gingham bandana:)
I just loved every step of
making this quilt and I'm going to
keep it hanging on my wall
for a while because it
makes me happy every time I see it!
So...I told you when this sew along was over
that I would announce my next sew along
and it's for my quilt called
FLEA MARKET FLOWERS
This is what the quilt looks like
and I cannot even wait to make it!
Of course we will be using my
next fabric collection called of course...
FLEA MARKET
next month (December 2020)
And the sew along will begin
Monday, January 25th 2021...
and of course you are invited!!
You can find out information about it
by going over to my

On Friday I filmed all about
Flea Market fabric and the sew along...
And I also introduce you to my

to go see all about it
and I hopoe you enjoy!!

Lori, this is such a sweet quilt. I so wish I had been able to participate. Life has gotten in the way the past few months as we've moved parents into assisted living after both having major health issue. I hope to get back to my many UFOs soon and look forward to your next project.

I love this quilt and am making one but am doing it from my scraps. I'm only on block 2 but am loving the process. I am doing hand applique. I love the quiet process of handwork. Thank you for your talent and your willingness to share it.
