It was finally dry enough outside to take pictures of grandson Ethan's quilt, Ducks Unlimited. The quilt measures 100" x 102". Daughter-in-law Amy, Ethan's mother, found the small duck prints at a secondhand store, all on one big sheet of fabric; I cut them apart. The central panel of mallard ducks was designed by artist Randy McGovern.
The batting is Quilters' Dream 80/20. I used Magnifico 40-wt. top and bottom, Cream Puff on top and Venetian Blue in the bobbin. I designed the quilt in EQ8. It was quilted on my hand-guided 18" Handi Quilter Avanté. The pantograph is called 'Ducks Taking Off', by Deb Geissler. The quilt took 79 hours from designing to label. The label was machine-embroidered on my Bernina Artista 730.
