I love swirls!

This is a customer quilt I finished yesterday.  It’s a small toddler quilt with a bowling ball theme.  I love the back of this quilt!  This quilter is an amazing piecer, I can only dream of doing such a nice job myself some day!  All the seams were beautifully pressed (I confess, this is a weak area for me!).

Some of the qilt is cropped out of the photo.  I did something to my Photoshop settings and can’t figure out how to save in pixels rather than inches again, and so I cropped it to size.  I guess I better figure out how to change it back!

Some closeups of the “Swirls” quilting:

     

This is hands down my favorite quilting pattern for kids.  It’s plenty dense so that the quilt can take a lot of abuse, without being so dense as to make it stiff.  But it’s also one of my favorite quilt designs period!

Way to go, CJ. I love swirls on just about any quilt.

Cute!!! I like the swirls too.

As for the photoshop setting........ I believe you change the setting for the pixels to inches in "preferences". Click on "photoshop" and the pref's are down towards the bottom.
