Dragonfly Delight

Dragonfly Delight is an amazing panel wall hanging. I had a blast doing custom quilting on this one. The client trusted me to “wing it”. Pun intended!

Custom Quilting

This quilt consists of three borders of varying colors ad widths and a center panel. The interesting part about the panel is the insects and scale background.
 
I used all gold thread to detail the moths and a dragonfly then mirrored the scales. This created a great background texture

For the borders, I used both brown and gold thread. I created custom feathers with the brown and a neat diamond pattern with the gold. I like how the different densities look.

Quilt Back

Due to the business of the backing fabric, the brown showed up much better than the gold. The back still had a lot of nice texture nonetheless.

Dragonfly Delight is a small quilt but it was a perfect candidate for custom quilting.
