πŸ‚ Connecticut Countryside Quilt 🍁

Kim, my co-worker at Quilt Cove, made this cuddly flannel quilt for her friends who live in the countryside of Connecticut:
She requested "leafy, swirly quilting". I quilted it with "Falling Leaves", which has many different leaf types, with swirls between:


"Falling Leaves" has an amazing 85" repeat, with 4 shift positions (longarm quilters know what that means--even more randomness), which makes it look freehand.

The backing is flannel, also. You can see more of the variety of leaves here:

This quilting design, "Falling Leaves" is by Sophie Collier, who is a member of our Minnesota machine quilters guild, Upper Midwest Machine Quilters.

Kim, great quilt! May it be loved and cherished and used for years to come.

Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy
