Quilting Angel Wings panto on customer's quilt.

50"x 60" two pieces of fleece quilted together with freehand feather meander.

Small quilt using preprinted fabric. I stitched around each flower component and did a pebble stipple as a background.

50"x 60", I quilted around each image on this fleece throw and then did a stipple meander as a back ground filler.

Here is a thread painting that I am quilting. I took a class on thread painting from ~ Anne Fischer ~ ( www.annemfischer.com ) at Carriage House Quilt Shop, Naples, NY
( www.carriagehousequiltshop.com ) and this is my rendition of her design that she taught.

Here is the finished project.

I bought this top off of e-bay, I used a panto for the quilting in the center of the top. I then SID and did bead-board on the green inner border. The outer border I did swages.

I quilted the center with a panto called Tea Rose.

I held the quilt up to the window so the sunshine would show the Tea Rose panto pattern.

I used a solid piece of flannel with small roses printed on it.

I recently purchased a Handi Quilter Sweet Sixteen sit down machine to do thread painting on. I had been using a Bernina 440 but found the available space limiting. Now I have 16" of throat space to do my thing with.

Here is a little flower garden that I thread painted using the HQSS.

I made this mini whole cloth from 2 pieces of muslin. I did all the stitching on my Sweet Sixteen. I did a pebble stipple in the back ground. I colored the designs with colored pencils and textile medium. Still have to do the binding. Quilt is 15" x 20"

I did a panto in the center of this quilt. Freehand vine and leaves was done in the inner border. The outer border I did a freehand rose, leaves, and swirls.

This is the back of the Rose Trellis quilt. The quilting stands out better.
