Bento Box Progress

The other weekend I loaded my Bento Box quilt top onto my quilting frame and started stitching on it.  I don't recall the name of this pantograph, but its got a nice flowing design to it.

I'm using Superior Threads King Tut in Grotto Green in the top and a matching light green from the Bottom Line thread line.  They are quilting up beautifully and they play so nicely together!  :-)

The backing fabric is a single piece (extra wide) batik backing.  Its a green color similar to the dark green shades in the strips I used in piecing the quilt top.

I can't wait to get this quilt top done.  Its going to be very soft and snuggly and look great! :-)  The batting I'm using is Quilter's Dream Cotton.  Its in the thickest variety (Supreme).  It is beautifully soft and I can't wait to see what it looks and feels like after the quilting is completed and its washed.


Happy Crafting!

  1. It is even more beautiful in person. I'm so glad I got to see your machine in action. Give me a cup of tea, my knitting and I would have stayed and watched your quilt all night.
