rachel's pinwheel quilt...
back in march... i left a comment on her post...
"as for quilting i'd mail it off to julie and ask her to quilt it with her loopy allover design on her big 10ft frame ;-) ... she'd say yes because she loves you... and frames do a wonder with a million seams and make it like they aren't even there."
and she did... and i quilted it... and here it is....

i used a panel on one side...
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_zKI59C_Ebps/Sls1y2alzqI/AAAAAAAABg0/qfso5NWPLM4/s400/DSCN2059.JPG)
with her name embroidered on it...
i'd like to say she is named after me... but she isn't...
and the other side is pieced... back in the day i made 4 matching baby quilt tops... so i'd be ready... and then they sat..and sat... i wanted to use one for this but it was square and the panel was a rectangle... so i added flannel triangles to the sides and chopped some parts of it off... and here it is... i really like how it turned out..

It did turn out awesome! Your other works are so beautiful too! Great job! Jenn
Very nice. I like the loopy quilting.
You do beautiful quilting! :) And I love the baby quilt.
~Molly :)
Oh my, is there such a thing as "quilt envy"? These are absolutely delicious!
YUM,YUM!!
cute! love the pinwheel quilt
I love that cupcake fabric on the back of your disappearing nine-patch!
The quilting on Rachel's quilt is beautiful. I love how you did thread changes. My friend has a long arm quilting machine, and I know how time consuming thread changes can be, but it's so worth the effort. It's gorgeous!
Just curious what you charge to do this quilting...the same loopy-meander...per square inch/foot, however you charge. I may have some work to send your way if you are looking for it!

Beautiful work! I would be interested too on how much you would charge. :)
I love what you did for Rachel and love your quilts and quilting.
I love the stars, it came out so cute. Can't wait for you to get here. I bet you are getting excited to get away too. See you in a little over a week.
Your work is awesome! Rachel's quilt looks beautiful and so do your other quilts! Let me know if you are taking orders because i would love to send you some quilts!!!
Rachel's quilt looks absolutely beautiful. And I enjoyed the lovely quilting pictures.
wow, beautiful quilting, you are so talented!
Wow...Julie...everything is beautiful! And I didn't know you did machine quilting...how did I miss that?!
Rachel's quilt is beautiful. You can leave that message on my blog. ;-) I love all of the other quilts you did too. The panel/piecing baby quilt is really neat. I have never seen that. I am going to be happy to say I knew you when. You are definitely a star!
Beautiful quilts, but I really love the job you did on Rachel's quilt!
Beautiful projects and the photos are lovely too. A pleasure to browse.
P.S. you're awesome! What a great thing for you to do and your quilting is amazing!
