Getting Up Close with My Quilting - Special Area Quilting

I quilted this snowman quilt in December for my customer so she could hang up for the Holidays!  Or display it on the guest bed.

Every year, about this time, another one of my customers finishes their Snowman quilt.  It was a block of the month several years ago at Picket Fence in Prairie du Chien.

Special Area Quilting gives details and dimension in just the right places.

From wiggle lines to swirls to bubbles to spirals...

I took up close photos of each block in the snowman quilt for you.

I wiggle line quilted the tree to give it look 3 D.

Using white thread, I quilted swirls and spirals on the snowman and on the white backgrounds too.

I changed threads with every color.

Double Bubbles in the thin border and Paisley Swirls in the outside border.

Circles in the mittens for texture and stripes in the background.

 Wavy lines in the hat and the window frame.

Some photos at an angle.

Here's some photos of the backside too.

See how the backside really shows you the the details of Special Area Quilting.

Special Area Quilting makes it fun and whimsical.

Rolled up and ready for my customer.

Another full view of the front.

And a full view of the backside.

Enjoy!
