Cathy's Quilt is Finished!!

Cathy was referred to us from the wonderful staff of Wish Upon a Quilt in Raleigh.  Lucky us!  This quilt that Cathy made for her daughter is stunning!
By the way, it was great to see everyone at Wish today.  We got to meet Clark and personally deliver his quilt to him.  A great guy!  Thanks for all your help Wendy.  I now have an official project to make with my GO! Cutter.

Hobbs Tuscany Silk was the batting that was chosen for this quilt.  The Bears work with, and stock, about 12 different  types of batting.  Do not hesitate to bring us your batting questions.  Margaret's extensive knowledge of textiles and fibers comes in quite handy in the batting department.  There are soooo many choices out there.  The type of batting that you select will affect the look and performance of your finished quilt.  A meandering feather design was applied inside the borders.
The inner borders were all SID.  The outer "blocks" border received an individual design in each square.  The quilting pattern was made by Johnny especially for this quilt:
