Dawn and Sandra's Fire Escape

Dawn made this quilt with her mom, Sandra, which makes it a very special quilt. Dawn is going to use it on her bed, and wanted double batting, so it's delightfully heavy and cozy. The pattern is Fire Escape by Atkinson designs. Their patterns are always so well written.
I quilted this way back in March or April, when we were still operating under pandemic protocols, so Dawn dropped off the quilt and then we phone consulted about thread colors and quilting design. There were many great options for thread color.
We decided on the teal colored thread, and the E and 3's quilting pattern--its my go do design for a reason! It always adds great texture and movement. The fireside backing shows the quilting nicely, and adds to the weight and cozy of the quilt.
