Wedding Quilt

Laurel made this quilt as a gift to her daughter and her new husband.  It is a beautifully pieced "simple" quilt with a great pieced backing.  Baroque Hearts kept it understated.

Kathy Did It All!

Kathy came for a short visit, brought her quilt, and quilted it all herself.  Even she admits that she is now hooked!

Hummingbirds

Cara made this quilt for her mother for Christmas.  Her mother likes blue and hummingbirds.  Quilted Quail used a hummingbird pantograph to repeat the hummingbirds in the fabric.  She'll love it!

Cara's Sampler

This is a bright quilt.  We used Signature variegated Brights to tie  all the colors together and we gave it connection with Blustery Day.  The backing fabric says it all!

Border Prints

This quilt lives with Tessa in Virginia.  Tessa is really good at using border prints.  These are Ginny Byers fabrics and they are designed to go together this beautifully.  We used the Simply Clematis pantograph to give the quilt a fresh flowery look.

Hearts Because She Loves This Quilt

Pat debated a lot about how to have this quilt completed.  She decided on Baroque Hearts because she loves this quilt to much and plans to use it for herself for years to come.  The camel-colored thread blends the Baroque Hearts in so that you see her precise piecing.

Color Bridge

Judy did a lovely job with this 66" square quilt.  The colors and lovely piecing make the piecing simply pop.  Windy Meandering allows it to have softness.  The sand dune thread and its subtle changes adds interest.

Lynn's Mystery

This is another mystery quilt whose last step was to put it together however you8 like.  Lynn worked over the placement for hours.  It turned out to be symmetrical.  The Simply Clematis certainly shows up on the green backing fabric.

Hunter's Star

Barbara made this quilt for her daughter.  Her piecing is beautiful and the color choices are outstanding.  We used Old Rose colored thread to repeat the pinks and Windy Meandering to stay in the background but give it contours.

Barbara_Oriental.jpg (48945 bytes)

Block-of-the-Month

Barbara decided on the Asian blocks for her quilt.  The fabric with the cranes is very special and she used an appliquéd crane as the label for the back of the quilt.  The round, open Oriental Clouds pantograph was perfect to complete the idea of the quilt.  It was made for Barbara's daughter.

Winter is Coming

Mary did this cute X and O quilt in snowman fabric.  The quilting included snowflakes, pine boughs and Christmas balls.  The snowflakes originated the old fashioned way with folded paper and scissors one hot day in August.

Art Quilt

Libby has such a wonderful eye for color!  Then we made this quilt a real piece of art by using page 89 in "Quilting Makes the Quilt" by Lee Cleland as a sample for the quilting.  This is a one-of-a-kind quilt for sure.

Joyce_crazy.jpg (49992 bytes)

Joyce_crazy_closeup.jpg (49072 bytes)   Joyce_crazy_back.jpg (49546 bytes)

Crazy Quilt

Joyce used preprinted crazy quilt fabric and a good choice of piecing to make this planned crazy quilt.  The custom quilting emphasized the piecing.  The backing fabric was the crazy quilt fabric.

Burgundy Beauty

Bette used these burgundies and pinks together for a lovely effect.  The medallion in the middle and the great open spaces are perfect with Baroque Hearts in burgundy thread. She made this quilt for her granddaughter and will deliver it in person soon.
