Joan's second quilt is so beautiful. She used all 1930's reproduction fabrics and the pattern is from Quilt in a Day. She found it in a magazine and it certainly looks like she had fun!

My favorite part is the border. She plans to scallop the border so I kept the motif 2" off the sides which will give her room to make the scallops. The best part is the feather ellipses. Joan will use those to form the scallop and they will work just perfectly together. Flying Geese Garden with custom quilting by Angela Huffman - QuiltedJoy.com I quilted the interior of the top just like the magazine photo Joan brought me when she dropped off her quilts. The flying geese have a continuous curve. The flowers have leaf stems and petals. The background is a loopy-loo meander. Flying Geese Garden with custom quilting by Angela Huffman - QuiltedJoy.com I used a white Sew Fine in the top and white Coats &Clark prewound in the bobbin. Batting is Hobbs Heirloom 80/20. Such a happy Spring quilt! Lone Star quilt on the APQS Millie frame - QuiltedJoy.com On the frame now is this amazingly flat and square Star of Bethlehem. This one is going to be a show stopper.
