I've seen these cool circular fmq designs so I decided to research them a bit. I kept coming across the word "concentric". Evidently, I missed that day in Algebra or totally spaced it or something. So, after looking it up, I found that a bulls eye is a concentric circle. That will be a cool design to try some day when I have the patience to fish all those beginning and ending strings into the quilt.
I'm quilting giant spirals. I was just winging it, but found that using marking pens helped a lot, especially since I'm quilting this on my regular pfaff with the itty bitty throat space.
Ooh your quilting looks just fabulous!
ReplyDeleteOooh I love Noteworthy, and you did an amazing job on this quilt. :D The spirals look awesome! You have a lot more patience than I do. o.O
ReplyDeleteLoving the spirals - they look really fun. :)
ReplyDeletevisiting from WIP wednesday. This looks awesome
ReplyDeleteLove it! The concentric circles are perfect for this quilt. Well done. I'm visiting from we did it Wednesday.
ReplyDeletethis looks great! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt looks greats!
ReplyDeleteLooking terrific!! I'm going to do a rain-drop interplay of concentric circles at some point this year, and now I'm thinking I should do like you and put some marking in since it's going to be done with a desktop machine.
ReplyDeleteLove the spirals with the blocks - fun mix!
ReplyDeleteQuilting looks great! How did you draw the spirals to get them so evenly spaced? Another beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! These look perfect!
ReplyDeleteThere is a similar pattern that is very old and traditional -- "Baptist Fan" is the name, I believe -- concentric half circles. Bonnie Hunter is a big 'fan' (ahem; no pun intended); you might check out her Quiltville website to learn more if you are interested. Meanwhile, your circles look great!
ReplyDeleteThe swirls are just perfect!
ReplyDeleteFun! I love a good spiral!!!
ReplyDeletelove your spirals
ReplyDeleteLove the spiral quilting. Looks wonderful with the cross pattern.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I made one full size quilt with a big spiral, it adds a cool look to any quilt! I started the center of the spiral with a free motion foot, and a drawn spiral, then switched to a walking foot and a guide. I like how you are making a bunch of big spirals on your quilt, I will have to do that sometime :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the cross pattern of the quilt and the spiral quilting pattern - nice job :-)
ReplyDeletegreat job on the spirls!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful quilt and that quilting is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThe quilting is a nice contrast to the pieced pattern, that will be a lovely quilt.
ReplyDeletespirals look great! must also try the cirles one day in my itty bitty space of my machine
ReplyDeleteNice quilting and I LOVE that bucket list fabric you used.
