This is one of first few quilts I experimented with Free Motion quilting. Its from Louis Smith's Strips & Curves book. Also one of my first quilts with a wavy border. Picking the fabrics is the BEST! It is shades of purple and golds. I found some glow-in-the-dark star fabrics and fun outer space fabrics. Plus a little applique.
17059_tatems_golf_quilt.jpg
I made this for my stepson as he was interested in golf. Found a fabric with golfers, another with golf balls and some other colors to match. A grassy one borders the whole quilt. Best of all in the light blue fabric, I stitched as many golfing terms I could think of....

Here's another Buggy Barn pattern. Its a large quilt which took me 3 years to finally quilt myself on a home sewing machine BUT I did it! The stitching up close is neat to look at.
