Aldoa's "first professional quilt"

Aldona is a new to me customer, and I really hope that we'll develop a long relationship.  She describes herself as a new quilter, and has always completed her own quilting on her domestic machine.  So, when she brought me this joy, I was a little anxious to make it even more lovely than the beautifully pieced top that she started with.

She began with a jelly roll pack, and used that to make the fan blades.  I showed her photos of some other similar quilts I had quilted, and she like the idea of the feathers in the background, and along the borders.

Although difficult to see, there are continuous curves in the white background of the 9 patch units.

Beautifully pieced and a joy to quilt.  Sure hope we get to work together again!
