Now that the Swirls are back on the table, I think most of January will be swirls or freehand quilts. ( I have 3 other Coins tops waiting for quilting). I know other people get bored doing the same thing but I like taking advantage of having the templates set up and as long as I do some freehand quilts in between I shouldn't get too bored. I also need to decide which top to quilt the Wonky Feathers on and I want to try Dwirling from the Pajama Quilter DVD too.Monday, December 31, 2007
Coins and Swirls
I've decided that my favorite quilted design on Chinese Coins type quilts are these Swirls from my Circle Lord template. (This is the donated Stashbuster top I showed yesterday draped across the longarm.)

You are right - it's perfect!
I like this quilting too. I am perusing many blogs to view machine quilting as I am planning to send a quilt out for machine quilting for the first time ever.
I can see why you love it - this is just gorgeous. Your photo is well-done. I just love how the quilting lines help to blend and soften the colors.
The swirls look great!
The swirls are cool. I'm with you once I had everything set up I would leave it too.
wow, I really like that quilting design. Makes me wish for a Circle Lord!!
Lovely swirls. Complements the straight piecing very well.
I am with you--once the templates are set up it is so nice to continue with another quilt using the same design. I like to slip my own quilts between customer quilts before changing templates. It saves a wee bit of set up time if I plan on using the same template as the customer chose. Happy New Year!
I love it. Circle Lord is on my 'wish list'.
Happy New Year.
I LOVE that circle swirl template - so perfect for the straight lines of chinese coins. Looking forward to seeing you try the wonky feathers 'for real' :)
Very cool design!
Mary,
