Getting Up Close to My Quilting - Whimsical Doodle Quilting

Kim from Persimon Dreams sent me her Tula Pink 100 Block Quilt to quilt with Doodle Quilting. I quilted every block with a different quilting design from loops, wiggle lines, swirls, waves, spirals, bubbles, daisies, cross hatching, meandering, and more ...



I used eight colors of thread to quilt Kim's quilt. Yes, that is a lot of re-threading, but it was worth it!








I am sharing several photos of the quilting on each of the blocks. There are 100 quilt blocks, but I only took about 40 to 50 photos of the quilt. 









Whimsical Doodle Quilting is not a perfect quilting.  It is a fun freestyle quilting. Sometimes I outlined things and sometimes I quilted around them. Whatever I thought would look best.





























I flipped the quilt over, so you can see the backside too.




I took photos from all angles so you can see all the designs and the color changes and the quilting in the borders.


















What a fun quilt to quilt!

Kim posted about her Tula Pink City Sampler 100 Block Quilt on her blog - click here.

Enjoy!
