Strip to Be Square

This quilt measures 51″ x 70″ and was made from a design by G.E. Designs. I completed it in October, 2024, though it will be gifted much later as a wedding gift for another grandson and his bride.

The quilt was machine pieced and machine quilted, using free-motion feathers in the squared-off rings and meandering borders. In the setting triangles around the rings, I used ruler work as a contrast. I did all of the quilting on my Bernina 790Pro and added my usual corded piping next to the binding.
