Free Motion Friday - Lloyd and Lola Quilting is Done!

Lloyd and Lola are done!  This was a LOT of background quilting.  I used 3.5 of the large size bobbins that go in my Bernina 770QE.  I didn't want to get bored while doing this quilting so I decided to use a variety of motifs to keep changing it up.  Here's how I started.

And then I kept adding...

Until it was all done!  Here's a few shots.

Now it's time to bind it....but it's not mine so Ann will have to do it...hee, hee, hee.  She's fast.  I bet it's already done.

I hope you get to quilt today!

Free Motion Friday - Lloyd and Lola Part 3

Lloyd and Lola are coming to life!  This week I worked on the llama bodies.  I did some swirls in teh light brown to make them look a little fuzzy.

For the dark brown on their bodies I wanted contrast so I used large pebbles.

I hope you get to quilt today!

Free Motion Friday - Lloyd and Lola Part 2

I keep working away.  Here's the final Llama blanket on Lloyd and Lola.  I had fun with the feathers. 

There are half octagons at the edges of the quilt.  This is how I chose to quilt it to give it the same texture as the full octagons.

I hope you get to quilt today!

Free Motion Friday - Lloyd and Lola Part 1

This quilt is so darn cute!  I love the llamas!  It's Lloyd and Lola by Violet Craft and it was stitched by my friend Ann.  I'm quilting it for her and will be showing you a series of posts about it over the next month or two!  Happy Free Motion Friday!

For the octagons I decided on this simple, but fun pattern.

I did some feathers on the saddle blanket.

I hope you get to quilt today!
