A Bear of a Medallion Quilt

Marsha came over to show Jane and I (Kirsten) her completed four patch quilt.  It turns out, Jane had just got the binding finished on her second medallion quilt.  It is the one with the bear in the center.  She did the stitch-in-the-ditch for most of the quilting on her quilt, then she did a big, kind of, zig-zag stitch around the borders.  It rather mimics the angles of the hash marks in the fabric design.  I think it is an eye-popper.

Jane helped Marsha hold up her quilt, so I could take a photo.  It has a big four-patch scrappy design.  It certainly turned out lovely. 


Marsha has been busy working on her medallion quilt, too.  Maybe next time we get together, we can see it.  Of course, I have barely got a plan for my medallion quilt.  But I made some new valances for our quilt room, from the cute pineapple fabric I picked up in February when we went to Nyssa, OR, and spent a little time at the Country Corners Quilt Shop.
