whole cloth quilting

Jul 15, 2008 6 Replies

Are there many people out there who enjoy whole cloth quilting? I really enjoy it! Several years ago I purchased a kit for a Christmas tree skirt just to see whether I could have success with and enjoy the technique, and am just now finishing my third bed-sized quilt.



I have several of the small whole cloth, pre-printed quilt tops. Have quilted 2 of them, am working on a third. I enjoy them and they aren't too big to do in the summer here in the desert. Great way to use sample squares of different battings too.

I love whole cloth quilting. I made a queen sized quilt years ago which is on my guest room bed. I started another one for DD so I would have it someday when she found Mr. Right. Started it when she began college and figured I would have it done when she graduated. WRONG. I am only 1/4 way done since I have worked on so many other quilts in the ensuing years. Am now getting back to hers.

Yes, I enjoy whole cloth pieces! I need to get stuff out and do another one. Hmmm, perhaps on a soft contract batik with a contrating thread.......

This is something I would love to try. Maybe after I retire.........

I have a crib sized kit that I haven't started yet. I'm a little intimidated by all the quilting, but I love the look of whole cloth quilts.
