This is Coleen's Curved Nine Patch quilt and the pattern is by Sew Kind of Wonderful. She asked for custom quilting and I was able to quilt it with two different thread colours. An off white So Fine thread in the background and a gold So Fine thread in the Nine patches and outer border. Batting is Quilters Dream Blend batting. I quilted free hand CC's in the Nine patch blocks and stitched in the ditch around all the curved piecing using my 15" Quilted Pineapple curved template. I added pebbles in the background with a curved echo on either side. Did wishbone loops in the melon background shape and more CC's in the sashing corner stone. The outer border has traditional feathers.. It has been so windy here but I did manage to get a few outdoor shots to see the quilting texture better.
