Lisa’s On Point Quilt

Hi Friends,

Happy Friday!!! I’m back from visiting my sister, and ready to share some more quilts with you!

This was a fun one to custom quilt! Lisa was one of my first mail in clients, and it’s been so much fun to see the quilts that she’s made over the years. This one is called On Point by Cozy Quilt Designs. It was a Craftsy pattern. I can’t find it in their shop. If your interested in the pattern, contact them on their website.

Lisa wanted it quilted custom, and I think it turned out so fun. It has a clamshell like look to it. I went light on the custom quilting, except for the border, because she sent minky for the backing. I think too much quilting can make the minky more stuff instead of the soft and cozy we all love.

I love the fabrics, especially the off white grunge background.

I used my favorite natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads, and my go to 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles out of Ogden Utah.

If I remember right, I used my 8” Circle2 ruler to quilt the curves. I use the outside of the ruler to quilt the inside arc, and then use the lines on the ruler to quilt the next two. My rulers can be found in my shop.

Lisa’s quilt looks sooo soft and cuddly.

I used my favorite Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple for the 1/2” lines in the strips and the Diamond motif inside the centers of the blocks.

I decided to do something fun in the borders, some of my Overlapping Lines but with pinstripes instead of just lines. With some Overlapping Circles to break up all the hard lines. If you’d like to learn how to freemotion quilt either of those designs, head on over to my shop and check out the Quilting It Freemotion course that I have available.

A little quilty swirl is always so fun.

Another look at all that beautiful quilty texture.

I’d love to quilt for you!! Contact me or send me an email at quiltingit@gmail.com
