I participated in a Zoom workshop with Shannon @ Shannon Fraser Designs for her Cloud Surfing pattern, which uses oval curves. I made the baby size -- 34 inches.
I used Kona: Quicksilver, White, Kumquat, Grapemist, and Regal.
I did straight line machine quilting in the background fabric and then did some big stitch hand quilting with perle cotton.
It didn't turn out how I envisioned, so I added more hand quilting and added more colours. LOL I definitely like it better now.
I love the texture.
