My husband has bugged me for a few years now to make him a quilt for on our bed. He told me he wanted a white one that we could put under our other quilts (blankets) to add that extra warmth. Well, of course I couldn't just throw one together simply. lol so I took on a whole cloth quilt challenge. My first large WCQ on my longarm machine. I do have a whole cloth quilt project in progress on my Facebook Group 'Free Motion Quilt Along With Ren'. I am quilting it on my sit down domestic sewing machine and will be using the Quilt As You Go method to put it all together. You can check that out here: Free Motion Quilt Along With Ren to learn more.
Now back to this beauty here: I felt overwhelmed trying to figure out how I wanted to go about this quilt. After endless hours on Pinterest and Google Images I finally decided to break the quilt up into sections. Hence the horizontal strips. This was great because I just did my own thing in each strip and it was so much easier to quilt. (at least for me it was) ;-). There are a ton of pictures here and of course they don't do the quilt justice at all. It is really a beauty. Oh and of course I couldn't hide it under my other blankets. It's right on top!!!!
