"Pretty in Pink"
This is my latest finish. Another in my Flaminingo series of quilts. Similar motifs to "Placidos Flamingos, but almost a wholecloth...the birds are the only elements keeping it from being a wholecloth. This little quilt is 47" x 49" and will be donated to the auction for education at MQS next week. I also did step by step video instruction on how to make this little art quilt. It is available to premier members of MQR .

The feathers are free hand cut from wool felt and were attached on the longarm during the quilting process.

I used two layers of batting; Quilters Dream Puff over warm & natural. And all the threads are by superior..all King Tut except for So Fine in the "sky" background fill.
