Tutorial: Cartwheel Quilting Motif
I got lots of questions about the quilting detail on the 100th Post Giveaway mini quilt. Some thought it was a simple square motif. However, you can see from the illustration above that it is a bit more complex than that. The shape is almost like a 4-leafed clover, with intersection-points in the center of each cartwheel. You can start at any point on the motif and quilt in a continuous line until you reach that point again.
Here’s the view from the front.
The mini-quilt was machine quilted, but I think this motif would work equally well with hand-quilting.
Stay tuned! The winner of this mini-quilt will be announced tomorrow.
