When this quilt first arrived in my studio its maker said that it was a true challenge to make and she is an expert quilt maker!
I can see why as I too have taken on patterns where the directions for pressing do not cause the seams to oppose each other making for not so smooth piecing and when you are dealing with so many small half square triangles it can be frustrating.
However another beautiful quilt top was created and put together with a gorgeous backing it’s now a quilt.
Its maker requested the pantograph bubbles which you can see was a perfect choice. Using curves against angles is a fun treat to the eye!
I find that it is always worth the extra time to press both top and backing before loading the quilt on to the Longarm.
This step provides an opportunity for fresh eyes to look the quilt top over as well as making sure that there are no creases in the backing fabric or missed seams which can happen to the best of us and to catch any dark threads sneaking under light fabrics.
How gorgeous is this backing! This quilt was trimmed and ready for binding at pick up.
