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. Each has a pantograph from The Pattern Man. The doggie
paw prints march over each one.
Connie
is a beginning quilter and all of her quilts are square and
flat. She seems to enjoy her quilting experience!

Tulips
Donna
pieced this cute tulip quilt. she selected Windy Meandering
because of its curving lines to soften the square lines of the
piecing. The sunlight yellow thread picks up the colors in the
quilt without overwhelming them.

Birthday
Irma
made this quilt for her cousin's birthday. We used rustana
thread and falling leaves to continue the outdoor idea from the
fabric.

Circles
I
bought this quilt on E-bay, not knowing what it would turn out to
be. It is a vintage quilt that had some fabric to replace.
It was tied in its earlier use. I got it because of the circles
and wanting to quilt custom circles. All of the circles are
different sizes and all of the custom fillers show a different
technique. The back tells the story.

Block
of the Month
Susan
pieced this lovely quilt and Quilted Quail did custom quilting.
Her blocks and sashing are very square, so the stitch-in-the-ditch
(SID) was easy to do. We used leaves in the sashing and
free-hand leaves in the border. QQ did the binding.

Red,
White, and Blue
Susan
pieced this patriotic block-of-the-month quilt. We did custom
quilting that included SID and continuous curve. We used
feathers in the sashing and around the borders to make it a very
traditional quilt. QQ did the binding by hand. Susan signed the name of the recipient and the year on one of the front
blocks.

Scrappy
Look
This
custom-made quilt is headed for a quilt shop display. This 60 X
75-inch quilt has lots of pieces and lots of detail. Carol
pieced the blocks, fused the appliqué, and satin-stitched all of the
figures in a very short time. The custom quilting is designed to
make her work stand out.
