The Wonky Improv-Curve Quilt


I took these photos a week ago.  I've been so busy that I forgot to post them.  This is the first quilt I've had custom quilted.  The lovely Georganna Hawley quilted it for me.  She was well recommended and I had a chance to meet her at Quiltcon this year.  We live about 3 hours apart, that's how you measure distance in California, so the quilt traveled via US mail.



I'm in love with the result.  I haven't decided on the binding, yet, so I can't mark this complete!
May your bobbins always be full,

The Wonky Improv-Curve Quilt Top and Back



This is what I came up with for the quilt back.  I kept it random and ended up with two pink rectangles together!  That's how you know it's random!

I've decided to us a Long Arm Quilter that I met a Quiltcon in February because she does custom quilting.  Before I met her, another quilter from the Ventura MQG had highly recommended her.  It's always great to have an independent recommendation.

Since I'm not much of a leave it to chance kind of gal, in spite of the evidence in the quilt back, I came up with a plan for the quilting and I'm going to let the quilter "run with it".  She has a busy schedule, so I won't have it back until August.
May your bobbins always be full,
