Jennifer's Quilt is finished!

Jennifer made this beautiful quilt for her Aunt.  The red and gold fabrics are exquisite.  Jennifer requested that we quilt in the Chinese symbol for longevity.  This is a one of a kind quilt.  Enjoy!


We used gold metallic thread on the top and a gold thread from Superior Threads Highlights line on the back. 

Fun facts to know and tell:  There were 309,375 quilting stitches  taken.  That's 2,148 feet of stitches!  WOW!  But guess what?  The silk batting that we used keeps this quilt very soft and drape able.  Not stiff like you might expect with all that quilting.  It really is beautiful.
