Molly brought me this gorgeous Bargello Quilt top she made.
The Pattern is called "Melindas Heart" by Heidi K. Farmer.
To decide what to quilt on it, I took a photo of the quilt top, then printed it out on a few regular sheets of paper, and started to doodle some ideas. The amazing 3-D nature of the quilt design popped out right away, and I was able to distinguish where I wanted the feathers to go, etc. I also used a water-soluable blue marking pen to draw out all the feathers and lines I wanted right onto the quilt top, so I wouldn't have to spend time thinking about it while it was on my quilting frame. So most of the work was done before it even got on the frame!
I am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Hi I love this quilt and would like to make one for my son as a wedding gift. Do you know where I can get a downloadable/pdf patter from. I have googled it with no success. I checked out erica's but the freight to get it shipped from America is not worth it. Hoping you can help.
Hi Lyn! Sorry, I can't help you with that!
You could try Ericas again but write them to ask if it is available as a download able file.
Also, if you belong to a forum or quilters group on Facebook, you could try posting an ad there.
Good luck!
Ok, when I saw this it said free pattern but not how I go about getting that free pattern. Saw this on Pinterest
.
Sorry, this is not a free pattern.
I would like to buy this pattern. Is it in a book? Where do I go to get it?
Hi I just saw this quilt hanging in an amish quilt shop and it was beautiful. I asked if they had the pattern and guess what? they did. So the quilt shop is called Country Fabrics and it is in Shiloh Ohio. You can google them for their phone number.
