front

back

Mary pieced this quilt with the front matching the back~~almost.  She used her stash of Asian fabric.  We used dill thread and the Asian Dragon pantograph by The Pattern Man, Dave Hudson.   In the last picture you can see the dragon's face.

 This quilt makes a statement!

Pineapple

Nelda did a great job with this scrappy pineapple quilt.  We used Windy Meandering to accent the color and simple provide contours.  the blue thread matched the backing and brought out the blue in the front.  The pieced blocks in the border added the final touch.

National Dog Show

Connie is taking these throw-sized quilts to a national dog show.  She has been collecting fabric with dogs on it for years just for these quilts. Most feature a puppy paw prints pantograph from The Pattern Man. Some have Stars and Loops and one has flowers. 

Connie is going to sell these quilts at a booth.  Her company is called "These Aren't Your Grandma's Quilts."  And they aren't!  She likes lots of color and pattern and the paw prints make them even more exciting.

Feathered wind Mill

Libby pieced this 54" X 54" quilt.  Yale blue thread and Simply Clematis brought out the springy colors and accentuated the pattern.

BOM

This lovely block of the month quilt came from Debbie's talents.  The custom quilting is designed to emphasize her piecing and make the colors and designs pop.

Christmas

June likes the look of stippling.  Check out the centers of the log cabin blocks.  You will find pieced blocks besides the pattern created by the lights and darks.

Block of the Month

 June pieced this quilt, too, with special centers to the stars.  She simple likes the look of stippling and requests it for all of her quilts.

Texas Star

Joyce pieced this wall hanging to go in her New jersey bedroom.  She used the premarked backing fabric and it gave her crisp, clean points.  Each diamond is stitched in the ditch.  the feathers in the setting pieces give this an elegant look.

Thimbleberries Sunrise

Joyce belongs to the local Thimbleberries group.  The colors in this "Sunrise" are very fresh and cheerful.  The stitch in the ditch around the blocks makes them pop.  The small borders have freehand vining leaves and the wide outer border sports waving leaves.

Quilt and Pillow Tops

Laurel pieced, embroidered, and appliquéd this set.  Because of all the stars, "Stars and Loops" was a perfect choice.  Red thread accented the colors both front and back.  She is keeping this set for herself!

Barbara's Beauty

Barbara pieced this small quilt a wile ago and is now going to get to enjoy it.  It is fresh and springy.  The Simply Clematis in white thread gave it a clean sweet look.

The Gift of the Magi

Barbara used fusible to appliqué this interesting quilt.  All of the colored figures are "ditched" and the background has McTavishing.  This is a lovely 21" X 56" piece for a wall or the back of a couch.

Versatile Barbara!

This row quilt demonstrates Barbara's versatility.  It is almost a calendar quilt with the clever rows in order of the seasons.  She pieced, appliquéd, embellished, and smiled over this one!  We decided that Interlocking Falling Leaves would show the seasons and give the quilt a connection.

Grandma's Rose Garden

Arlene has done it again!!  This quilt is the sample for a pattern sold by Arlene Wash Designs.  It will be available as soon as the embellishments are complete.  We understand that it will be sold as a whole quilt and the individual blocks will be available as well.

We always have fun with Arlene's quilts because of the great details she uses.  Notice the fussy-cut rose fabric in the centerlamp.   That lamp will have fringe.  Do you see the cute little blue butterflies?  She used black rose fabric in the borders, so we designed a rose quilting pattern to accent that.  Check out the rick-rack.  This is a modern/Victorian quilt!
