Autumn Twist

The San Francisco Stitch Company gave away the embroidery files for four really cute little animal blocks with an autumn theme, and I couldn’t resist making them. The border and corner files were more than reasonably priced, so I opted to use them instead of plain borders. The quilt is approximately 18.25″ x 18.25″ and was machine embroidered and machine quilted. I finished it in November, 2018.

Here are a couple of detail pictures of the quilting. First I did free-motion feathers around the animals in the blocks:

Next, I used ruler work to do the diagonal lines in the borders:

In April, 2019, our local guild had its annual quilt show, and Autumn Twist earned a first place ribbon!
