STRING BY SUE CHARLESTON


 

This king size quilt was brought in by one of my newer customers, Sue. So many pieces! This quilt is spectacular!

I used YLI "White" cotton thread and  the digital quilting design is called "Alpine Grande", and is available from Urban Elementz. The perky little flowers and swirls really compliment the florals in the fabrics.

Here are two closeups of the quilting, on the front and back of the quilt.
 

Below is a short video, that highlights the photos of the quilt, and below that is another video of the quilting. There was a glitch and I was unable to combine the two. Sorry!

 
 



The size of this quilt is approximately 99" x 107", and the cost for my services was $189.45, which included a set up fee, digital edge-to-edge quilting, and thread. Sue provided her own batting. The batting I sell is not wide enough - only 90" - so I would not have been able to sell Sue batting. And the quilt was finished and ready to be picked up in only a couple of days!
