I had to snap a few photos of the quilting on this quilt the other day (it’s my Vintage Memories Quilt pattern with Katie Jump Rope fabric) and realized I never shared the final quilting on this. I went with bubbles and really like the effect with the fabric line. I don’t quilt this pattern often, as it’s a little time intensive and difficult to maintain those perfect circles, but I sure like the effect when I do!
I got an iPhone a few weeks back when my cell phone went kaput. I’d had the money sitting in savings since after Christmas just waiting for Verizon to get the phone, and then waiting for the new version to come out, but I got tired of waiting and apparently my old phone decided 2 years was long enough. So thanks to that, I now don’t seem to pick up my real camera for photos anymore. I need to stop doing that, but the phone is just so convenient! Anyways, the point of all of that is to let you know I’m on Instagram and share quite a few photos every day, some of family and pets, some of crafting and some of food. I love seeing what everyone is up to on there, so stop by and say “hi” so I can add you to my list! I’m SometimesCraftr (just like my Twitter and Pinterest).
I am working on revamping a pattern for the holiday season and will of course be busy with that, but I miss my little blog and have some plans to revamp it as well. It’s time for some new buttons and a little cleaning up. Also, I wanted to mention if you need a quilt quilted, now is a good time as my bin is empty, so there is quick turn around. Once the holiday season hits, it takes a little longer and that is almost upon us. Well, almost upon us if you consider September the holiday season like I do. I hope everyone is having a terrific summer so far…I’m still waiting for ours to arrive.

I love the circular quilting you did on this! It's gorgeous!
WHOA! Love that quilt Christina! Shoot, now I need to come up with two more quilts to send you! One for feather quilting and now one for this! :)
The bubble quilting is wonderful. All of your circles look so perfect!
The quilting is wonderful! I'm going to check my stack of quilt tops since you have some openings!
Wow- that quilting pattern is gorgeous! Do you cut the thread and start each new circle?
love the quilting. And I got an iphone for mother's day (sort of, long story) and i love it, it's so easy to take pics whenever!
Love that quilting! Someday. Someday, I hope to have those skills. But it will probably be a while...
Oh my goodness Christina, this is gorgeous. You know I love the fabric, but that quilting is amazing too! I definitely think I need you to quilt my KJR quilt, too.
I love love love the quilting :) must practice!
Hello, beautifull, perfect :)
This quilting is beautiful...as well as making the fabric seem, somehow, more vintage, it looks like it would be extra snuggly! Well worth the extra time :)
Great bubbles!! I love my iPhone, too and will see you on Instagram (coolest app next to hipstamatic!!...oh, and Cardstar, which is also the bomb for clearing out your wallet).
Love the quilting and the effect it creates! Gorgeous fabric! It's a beautiful quilt!
Since I got my iPhone, I've been terrible for picking up my camera. I haven't touched it since Christmas... Mind you, it wasn't fancy and the phone camera is pretty decent. If I had a quality camera, I might feel a little guilty. But until I get one, I'm having fun with Hipstamatic. :-)
