Hurray to the quilts marching in the GRAVITY Quilt Along finished quilt parade today! Five amazing quilts are featured and have been entered in the Grand Prize Drawing! Three entries are from Canada, two are from the United States, and my quilt makes it a tie for Canada and US at three quilts each!
I've included close-ups of the quilting since each one is quilted so differently. These quilts prove that custom quilting is not required for a stunning GRAVITY quilt, and quilting in a simple allover meandering stitch, a pantograph, and custom quilting all look great!
