What kind of thread did you use for the outline quilting? It almost looks like embroidery floss.
It would be nice to see even more pictures!

Looks good! Other than the hand-stitching, what other changes did you make to her pattern / tutorial?
I have a ton of scraps I could do this with, too.

I love it!! The handquilting is perfect, glad you did it. I just started a quilt like this but I put my 'stamps' closer together. Yours looks so good, I think I might go back and spread mine out (luckily not sewed down yet, just pinned). Yours is just beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration.
Posted by: Lisa | 25 September 2010 at 10:44 AM
oh wow Penny! that is so beautiful!!! love all your fabric choices and the hand quilting looks devine!

The hand quilting was worth every minute!
Posted by: Amy | 25 September 2010 at 12:12 PM
OH. MY. WORD. I am pretty sure that is the most awesome quilt I've ever seen. SERIOUSLY! I am so doing one of those. Oh it's beautiful! Where did you get the orange dots, I've been looking for something just like that. Is it older fabric or something that's still available? I would sure appreciate it if it'd work for you to email me and let me know, thanks so much Penny - you are AMAZING!!!
Posted by: Janna | 25 September 2010 at 12:21 PM

TASTEful addition to the dining room. Everytime I see that orange dot on someones blog or on one of your pieces, it makes me think of The Storyteller quilt, and Orange Creamcicles. Yummy. What are you gonna do if that orange dot supply every runs out? Gotta love its versatility. Wondering what flavor will every be able to be its successor?
Posted by: Glynis Cozza | 29 September 2010 at 03:57 PM
What setting do you use on your machine to make circles? I got a new machine and I'm pretty sure it can do it.
