Machine Quilting Designs


Yesterday at Calico Cutters Quilt Guild our speaker was Barbara Persing. She has a new book out called Listen To Your Quilt.

Oh So Sweet made by Barbara Persing and Mary Hoover

May Day made by Barb Persing and Mary Hoover

I love how Barb quilted this circle. I never like how I do mine, this might be a good one to try.

The Sampler by Barbara Persing
This is a really beautifully quilted piece. It won Best Machine Workmanship in 2009 at the Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza.

That would have been such an interesting talk. The sampler quilt looks amazing, I bet it's full of wonderful ideas. Ill keep my eye out for that book.

Thank you so much for sharing. I might have to get her book. Maybe I can break away from meandering!

great show and tell. Looks like a great lecture.
I like the title, that is how I work, not pre -planned.
