Quilt Notes/Techniques

Lighthouse for Grandma MJ. Made from Safe Harbor range by South Seas Imports.  Pattern called for it to be a double sided quilt as you go banner.  Changed to one sided wall hanging.  Used red, white and blue variegated gutterman cotton thread.  Ditch stitched around borders and straight lines in centre panel.  First time using walking foot for straight line quilting.

Nautical for Mom. Safe Harbour range of fabric plus Moda nautical fabric in red.  Alternate panel from Lighthouse wall hanging.  First machine quilted project after reading Alex Anderson’s machine quilting book.  Ditch stitched around borders and squares in panel in red, white and blue variegated thread.
