Long Arm Quilting – Disappearing 9 Patch
When I first got Spike, a very good family friend sent me a quilt top she made for charity, complete with backing and batting. She said it was something I could practice on. I was so grateful for her trusting me with something that she made. It was the first quilt I loaded after getting my new and awesome Red Snappers installed. Speaking of which, I will NEVER pin again!
When I first looked at the quilt I was a bit stumped, but I decided to load up a lovely yellow thread from Signature and just getting going.
I love this quilting design, it is so much fun and versatile for the different sizes and shapes that are in this quilt pattern and the yellow thread popped just enough in some places and receded perfectly in other places.
The back looks great too! The backing was a solid navy and I used Superior Threads Omni in the bobbin, it was a golden brown color and it pops so beautifully. You can really see how the quilting looks!
I love how the quilting stands out on the back and makes all kinds of interesting patterns!
I will likely be accepting customer quilts this summer! Just working on the business end of things! Can’t wait to get started!
Have a lovely Monday!
