I
call this beauty, “Whispered Lace Meets Delft China”
I
created it from Amy’s “Whispered Lace” pattern out of her “Modern Neutrals” book.
When
Amy first revealed this beautiful quilt pattern I totally fell in love
and knew I had to put it on the to-do list.
Queenie
decided to challenge herself and limit the color pallet to cool neutrals…
Of
the beige, blue and grey variety…
That
really reminded me of beautiful Delft china.
With
Delft china in mind, I decided an edge to edge floral pattern of quilting would be a pleasing
complement.
This
is the first king sized quilt I’ve quilted on my Innova quilting machine named Sir Owen.
And,
of course, it was a smooth sailing hand guiding Sir Owen through the quilting.
Another
first, was printing my quilt label on the computer. Queenie's quite pleased with the result!
Last
month I showed and telled at the Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild to many Ooos and Ahhhs.
Most important of all...
It’s gotten the Honey Man seal of approval <3

Oh my, Queenie! I LOVE this quilt (the pattern, the palette, and that Sir Owen served you so well)! A king! That's huge! I'm gobsmacked!
The detail in the lace is gorgeous too.
