My 4 Birds quilt is in the right hand column. This was an interesting quilt that began as a continuous line drawing that was abstract. When I was done with the line, I started searching and found these birds in it. I had the pattern enlarged, cut each piece apart for a pattern, cut out the fabric and sewed it all back together. It was quite a feat because it is all continuous curve piecing...............the most complicated quilt I have ever pieced. I backed the top with black and began the quilting. Quickly I discovered that my quilting was making a wonderful thread painting on the back of the quilt. I really think I like the back best---the thread painting, but the front--the curved piecing was much more difficult to do. Which side do you like the best?
