Custom Quilting on King-size Quilt

It was good to get back on the Lang arm this week. I worked on a King-sized custom quilt for Barbara. She made the quilt top using Eleanor Burns' Day & Night quilt pattern. She used fabric she bought in Mesa this past winter. It is very striking!

We decided to meander the centre part of the quilt and then to use freehand stitches in the boarders. The blue border I quilted stacked rectangles, beige border was wishbone pattern and the patterned boarder was geometric meandering.
