I hope you have enjoyed working on the Ice Crystals wall hanging/table runner. I've decided mine will have a place on the table in my family room. I've done a number of extra blocks -- so maybe I will do a gift as well. As a reminder, this free pattern will be available on my website until the end of the month. In quilting Ice Crystals, I'll admit that I threw it on the longarm and used a snowflake pantograph. However, I have thought a bit about how I would quilt this on my domestic machine. I went back to an old favorite, snowflakes and loops. This is a very forgiving pattern and a great one to practice your machine quilting. The points of the snowflakes don't need to be the same size and it looks fine if they don't even stay on top of the line when traveling back. Check out this video to see how to quilt this out. Here are a few photos of a recent customer's quilt in which I incorporated this technique. This stunning quilt was done by Judy Berry and will be on display as part of the Redwork Show at Four Season's Quilts during the month of February. Check the show out to see this quilt in person. Happy quilting.
