Winter Quilt

I recently quilts a bluework quilt for a customer - It was so adorable!!

We decided it would look great with lots of movement - sort of like the snow:

Isn't that fun?

Need a Quilt Quilted?

Let me know ;-)

The back!

Sometimes it is really fun just to check out the back of the quilt.

This is the first quilt my client ever made by herself. She has participated in a few with her mother... but this one.... ALL her own.!!

I just had so much fun with this.!

And now for the front - there were lambs appliqued on it, and pinwheels, and a poem that she wrote.

A Row Challenge Quilt

My client participated in a Row Challenge at her guild. There are 4-6 people and you all switch quilts each month to add a row to the quilt. You don't always know what the original row is, so there is a bit of a challenge.

This one turned out fabulous!!

The challenge for the Quilting - The Client likes lots of it - her husband wanted it fluffy!

The whole time I was Quilting - I was chanting - fluffy...fluffy.... fluffy....

I did use a Poly down Batting - so that REALLY helped.

When my client came to pick it up she was just tickled. So I think the challenge was met!!

Fussy Cutting

My Client finds the most amazing fabrics! She fussy cut these so that each snowball had a winter scene it it - Lovely!!

I just thought that was such a cool effect!

PinWheels

I just love this quilt! A client brought it in for an allover design in the quilting.  So I picked up some of the motifs in the fabric and used lots of leaves...

Of course - it is not trimmed. I ask my clients if they would like it trimmed or not. Since the majority of them hand stitch the binding - they prefer to do the trimming themselves.

A scrubs Quilt

A client of mine's Daughter is a nurse and she had tons of scrubs. They spent a weekend fussy cutting them and putting them into this great quilt.

I quilted lots of texture - but didn't want to overwhelm all the fun fabrics in the quilt.

She loved it!! I am so glad!!

Vintage Blocks

This client loves to take blocks that she finds at Estate sales and put them into beautiful quilts. I fell in LOVE with these blocks. The colors are really outstanding.

She added this fabulous brown and antique pink in the settings - and I quilted it with a Baptist Fan. Fabulous!
