Liz's Lipinski project

Liz started this top in a class taught by Mark Lipinski at Pieceful Quilting.  She gave me total freedom on the quilting, and I had a blast!

I love the spaced triple lines.  I don't know if it has a name, but it looks like beadboard to me.

I repeated the triple lines in an inner triangle border with flowers in the next border.
  

Ribbon candy (So Fine thread colors throughout the quilt were matched to the fabric)

I knew immediately that I was going to put butterflies in this section.

    Thank you both. I just wish I'd been brave enough to use variegated thread.

    Thanks, Jennie. It was in last year's show. The quilting looks good here, because of selective photography LOL! But because I used the same color thread as the fabric, it's not that noticeable : ( One day I'll be brave.

    The center is so cool, with the butterflies and the sun rays!
