Kathy's Quilt


This quilt was a gift for my mother-in-law.  She has been hinting that she would like one for at least 4 years now.  And I kept planning to make one, but Christmas creeps up so quickly each year.  This year I bought the fabric in January and started work on it right away.  I was still finishing it just days before Christmas. 



I used lots of Joel Dewberry's Deer Valley collection, although I can never stick to just one designer.


This was my first time using my handy free motion quilting foot.  I traced the outline of the flowers on the border of the quilt only.  It was a great way to get used to the foot because I had the design right there to trace.  The rest of the quilt I stitched in the ditch.
