Here is a sneak peek of my Sashiko-inspired quilting along my Single Irish Chain. The top is cream with scrappy oriental fabrics forming the chain, so I thought a dark navy backing would make it all look pretty neat.
The quilt inspector approves.
So far I'm enjoying the chain motif - I'm not sure whether to call it an orange peel, a cathedral window, or 'round shaped seven treasures'. Who knows! I seem to have found a way that is comfortable to move along the chains for FMQ and that's a big deal; less stress on the arms and shoulders means more quilting!
But you know with all that lovely creamy muslin space --- I'm just going to have to do feathers.
