Susan Corbett Custom Machine Quilting

This quilt was ideal for a part custom, part overall design scheme, with a flower meander on the pieced bars and a flower/circle background fill. A video of the quilting is up on my YouTube channel. This quilt was made by Mary Ann Thompson.

This one-patch tumbler quilt said diagonal lines to me, connecting points along the way. I quilted triangles, squares, a diamond and dimensional quilting to add texture and a lot of visual interest. My client hand pieced these 1 1/4”-tall tumblers, including fussy-cut red cats to break up all the blue. The end result is a stunning custom throw unlike any other.

Two quilts I quilted are on display at the Plano, Texas, quilt show, and they won ribbons. Both were in the North Texas Quilt Festival last weekend. Kathy Sibley’s bed quilt won a red ribbon this time, and Charles Maxwell’s black hole quilt, his original design, won honorable mention and an award of merit for excellence in quilt making. Congratulations to both!
