Mary McIndoe's Circle Quilt



Isn't this quilt so warm and gorgeous? Mary McIndoe made this quilt using the circle templates from Elisa's Backporch Designs. She started quite a trend at the February retreat... Laurie and I were both working on one becuase we were so inspired by this beauty!

The coolest thing is that Mary allowed me to quilt it for her! We worked together to come up with a design for the quilting. Below is an image of the design idea in pencil and paper...
and here is the finished design in thread and fabric...
Pretty cool, huh? I used Superior Threads King Tut in Crushed Grapes.I think the Hobb's Heirloom batting really helps the texture stand out. Thanks, Mary, for letting me play a part in this beautiful quilt!
