I am off this week and having fun trying to finish this beautiful quilt. This is the quilt I worked on at the 2015 quilting retreat organized by Martha at covered bridge quiltery. The quilt is from Joan Ford second book scrap therapy plus one. The pattern is called flower bed.
I am using stencils for this quilt, that I trace on a stack of about 12 dritz paper. I sew over the traced template with the powerquilter to perforate all of the 12 copies of the dritz paper. Of course no tread in the needle. I positioned one of the perforated paper copie and secure it to the quilt with double sided tape. After that I am ready to quilt following the perforated line, sewing trough all of the layers. It is a continuous line stencil. Once it is done I tear away the paper and voila, beautiful quilting.
