Rolling Waves Done and Stash Report

I have blogged about this quilt several times already, but now it is quilted, bound and ready to give to my sister.  If you follow my blog, you will know that I already have given several quilts to 'my sister', but I have four sisters, and this one doesn't have a quilt yet.

Rolling Waves is a free pattern you can find online.  The whole thing is made of nine patches.  If you are going to do multiple colors as I did, a design wall is helpful.  The pattern as written only has two colors.  

The last time I tried to photograph this quilt, it was dark outside, and the batik print didn't show up well.  Today it is lighter out, so you can see the swirls and different colors in the design.  I have been looking at other batik prints, thinking I might make another version of this quilt.  So far, I haven't found a batik I like quite as well as this one.  

My longarmer, Vicki Johnson of Threads That Bind Us, chose the quilting pattern.  It is a pantograph  with a big. loopy swirl that gives the quilt a lot of movement.  I'm very happy with the design she chose.  You can really see the pattern on the back.

So glad to have this quilt done!
