Marsha’s Rose Embroidery Quilt

Hi There,

I’m excited to share with you some of the custom quilting details on this beautiful quilt that Marsha made.

She embroidered the Rose Blocks from Ace Points Embroidery, and then designed the rest of the quilt. I love the sweet blue floral she used, it pairs nicely with the rose blocks.

I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads, and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

As you can see, I echoed around the embroidery blocks.

To try and create a beautiful frame around the Rose blocks, I quilted a couple of different curves. You can see a video of me quilting a block like the one below on my instagram.

I used my 9” Circle2 machine quilting circle ruler to quilt the arcs around the outside of the orange peel petals. My Circle2 ruler sets are available in my shop.

I used an Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt those beautiful lines. I quilted the lines leaving a 1/2” space between them, it’s simple and beautiful.

I used my 4” Circle2 ruler for the orange peel petals, after quilting a line with an Edge ruler of Linda’s. I love mixing lines and curves, when I custom quilt.

Check out all that lovely texture!

A close up!

Thanks for coming on by. I hope your making lots of pretty things in your free time. If you’re interested in having me quilt for you, check out my schedule. Happy quilting! • Leisha
