I have finally finished hand quilting my second Southwestern quilt. I had the first one machine quilted, but Wendy, my daughter, wanted hers hand quilted. I bought the pattern, Ancient Spirits of the Mesa. I had only 12 blocks,and I wanted a queen size quilt, so I made up 8 more blocks. I also did not like the kachina pattern. I had a friend who was an art teacher. She said she had a kachina, and she could draw it for me. I used her kachina, and used the block border from the purchased pattern.
The first 12 blocks are from the pattern I purchased.

The directions called for using machine satin stitch, which i don't care for, so I hand appliqued the designs. There is some machine pieced on the borders of the blocks.

The next 8 blocks are the ones that I designed. I will put them on the next post.
