Dot’s Tahoe Quilt

Hello Friends,
I hope you’re having a great week! I have a fun southwest quilt to share with you.

Dot made this beautiful Tahoe quilt and the pattern is by Cluck Cluck Sew.

We talked about several designs, and even the possibility of quilting it custom. More on that in a minute. I quilted Patricia Ritter and my Morocco design on it, and I love the texture it created for this quilt!! Morocco is available at Urban Elementz.

Custom quilting vs. edge to edge quilting…I’m sure I could have figured out some fun geometric design to quilt in the quilt block itself, however quilting the background in a block that’s offset like this is difficult. The angles just make it tricky. Some quilts are better quilted edge to edge. Edge to edge quilting can enhance the quilt, and still give it fun texture and personality.

If I remember right, I used Hobbs wool batting on this, and my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads.

A couple more close ups of this fun quilting texture!!

Hope you have a great week!! Happy quilting… • Leisha
