The finished quilt! This view is almost like looking out over a shoreline.
I really like the way the machine quilting turned out. I used a long, slightly wavy stitch in two different widths, so some lines are more wavy than others. This is one of my favorite stitches on my Viking. Each strip (about 3-1/2 inches wide) has three lines of wavy stitches and one line of straight stitches right next to the seam.
It feels so good to have a project done! Next, I'll start the hand quilting of the linen quilt. It's in the frame ... just have to carve out some time.

Oh, I just love this - soothing with the soft coloring and wave-y quilting. Aaaah!

You did a very good quilting job, I just love your quilt
This is absolutely a beautiful quilt. I love the fabrics that you used in making this wonderful project. It's indeed simple yet beautiful. Keep up the good work! :)
I hope you haven't stopped blogging because your quilts are so lovely. I also gather used clothing instead of buying fabric.
best, nadia
