Granddaughter Joanna's Jardin de Fleurs quilt is complete. It measures 101" x 101". I designed it in EQ8. The central panel and the light blue fabrics for blocks on the outer borders and the backing were from Joanna's other late grandmother's stash.
The batting is Quilters' Dream 80/20 cotton/poly. I used 40-wt. Omni thread front and back in light blue, natural white, pale yellow, light green, mossy green, variegated fuchsia, variegated peach, and variegated pastels; and 40-wt. Magnifico in indigo blue and medium blue.
The custom quilting, with rulerwork and free-motion, was done on my 18" Handi Quilter Avanté on a 12' Studio frame. The hibisci in the corners were machine-appliquéd.
