The Vintage Airplanes quilt is all finished except for the label, and that will have to wait until I get my Bernina Artista 730 back from the tech. Hopefully, the tune-up and repair will not take too long (or cost too much).
This quilt measures 73" x 84". I designed it in EQ8. The airplanes are cut from a panel called 'Flying High', by Dan Morris for QT Fabrics. I used Omni light charcoal 40-wt. thread on top, and Bottom Line red 60-wt. thread in the bobbin. The batting is Quilters' Dream wool. The pantograph is called 'Air Show', by Judy Lyon.
The quilting was done on an 18" Handi Quilter Avanté on a 12' Studio frame. My machine is hand-guided, not computer-driven. The binding is sewn on entirely by machine.
This quilt is for grandson Justin, age 12.
