I love straight
line quilting, it works so well on so many quilts, and it’s so easy! The
possible combinations of straight lines are endless. 
These
pieces started with postcards of Chinese cigarette advertising posters
from the 1930's. I love them so much, that there is a very large framed
one hanging in the guest bathroom. (Talk about getting off the subject!)
I
printed these on Printed Treasures fabric that comes pretreated with
stuff that I can run through my ink jet printer. The purpose was to get
them done so I could bead. (I bead after the pieces are quilted and
bound). So straight line quilting was just the thing. I wanted nothing
fussy, nothing to distract from the beading. I really like both of these
pieces. What a difference, to see the before beading and after beading pictures.
