Finishing Touch

Nancy used custom quilting to add that

special fi nishing touch to her design and

create an heirloom quilt. An alternative

option is to use an allover design to fi n-

ish your quilt. The Filigree Facets Quilting

motif is a lacy design that dances across

the quilt surface and accentuates the

Flying Geese.

download the Filigree Facets Quilting

motif.
