to market, to market

Sadly I'm not going but some of the quilts I've quilted are!

Barb is a new pattern designer for Moda. When she brought in this first quilt, I had to quilt it. And then keep it. But that's not allowed; me keeping it that is. But Barb did give me the pattern so I can make my own lol.

Isn't it beautiful?


Here's what I did. I stitched in the ditch the border squares and brought the lines out into the black outer border. That made a very fun pattern(and for some reason I didn't take a closer picture)

For the white around the door, I followed a pattern in the fabric.



Next up, straight lines in the door itself; mimicking how the wood grain would be in a wooden door.





Inside the wreath and the birds, I quilted 1/4inch on the inside, following the shapes.



I absolutely love how this turned out. And I really wish I had gotten to quilt more of Barb's market quilts but it didn't work out time wise for me. Next time!

What a beautiful Christmas quilt! And the quilting that you did on it is even more so. I'm going to have to watch for that pattern and buy it.
