Gracie and Annie Quilts

I quilted this little girl's quilt today using a pantograph called Daisy Doodle.



The red little girl fabric is called Gracie was a small piece that I really wanted to highlight. So I chose to make one large star that incorporated every single part of the fabric.


I also had 5 yards of the red dot so it worked well for the backing and binding. I like how it turned out and I think I will try this technique again when I have a good focus fabric.


I also had a piece of green little girl fabric called Annie. I chose to highlight this focus fabric in a simple square block because I had a little more of it than I had of Gracie. 


I used a pantograph called Carnival #2 to quilt it. I also chose a thread called Omni-V which is a variegated heavier thread than usual. It took a little fine-tuning to get the tension right which was a good lesson.
