Geisha Portraits

Geisha Portraits - Problem: I knew quilting the portraits would be difficult. The lines are so delicate that I knew it would require careful stitching and pivoting - and I was not looking forward to quilting delicate lines while wrestling with a big quilt sandwich. Solution: The Cotton Theory method allowed me to quilt the piece in small units, then assemble them with the sashing and border units.
