Sewing Ladies

This fun quilt is a sample for Gracie Lou's.

On the spool blocks I outline quilted them and then added thread detail across the centers of each spool.

Around each of the picture frames I quilted a different border pattern.

Everywhere else I quilted an all-over design with sewing tool elements. Above, a sewing machine.

Here is a pair of scissors.

Here, a spool of thread (above) and needle (below)

I connected each of the sewing tools with a meander, and used an eggshell colored thread.
