Nelda did a great job on this Mirage.  Aren't the colors wonderful?  We Used El Passo in green thread to give it a southwestern flair.

Quiet Quilt

Mary made this quiet quilt and we used a new-to-us pantograph called "Paisley" that repeats some of the patterns in the fabric.

Mary_FarmScene_closeup.jpg (46021 bytes)   Mary_FarmScene_back.jpg (48504 bytes)

Farm Scene

Mary used this lovely farm scene toile in the windows of her quilt.  We meandered in the background and helped the scenes to stand out.  The harvest moon adds color that she will repeat with buttons in the window pane sashing.

Toot! Toot!

Nelda will warm the heart of her little friend with this train quilt.  She machine appliquéd the trains around the borders.  We used Stars and Loops in gold thread to give it a festive air.

Delectable Mountains

Dee made this lovely quilt for her daughter.  It is definitely a feminine quilt with the pinks and now the Simply Clematis flowers in deep pink thread.  I know she will love it!

Jean's Special Quilt

Jean spent many hours with all of these different fabrics and little pieces.  We used orchid thread to tie it together since the border and backing was that color.  Feather Meandering added motion and roundness to the quilt with all its square pieces.

Do Snowmen Play Checkers?

This Thimbleberries quilt is a clever mix of square lines and round snowmen.  We put stars in all of the boxes and snow drifts and snowballs in the borders.  More snowmen may appear!

Large Golden Quilt

Angie took a class for the basics of this quilt and then kept adding more squares until she had this large beauty.  We used Egyptian Topaz (gold) thread and Simply Clematis for an all-over look.  She incorporated some of the fabric from the front to add interest to the back.

Joyce_Christmas_closeup.jpg (49238 bytes)   Joyce_Christmas_back.jpg (47113 bytes)

Christmas

Joyce made this scrappy Christmas quilt.  We outlined all of the colored fabric,, did continuous curve in the 16-patch blocks, meandered in the background, and added holly in the borders for a final Christmas touch.

Texas Star

This large beauty (108 X 108") is simple and traditional.  The continuous curve in the star make Joyce's piecing stand out.  The double square feather wreaths nestle nicely in the corners.  Since the fabric has roses, we chose  Rambler Rose in white and then black thread to give interest to the borders.

Girl Quilt

Doesn't this look like 1970?  Mary made this for her granddaughter.  Her granddaughter helped pick out the fabric.  We used large happy flowers and turquoise thread to make her happy.

Small Jacobean Beauty

Mary used another panel and made a little different wall hanging.  This time we used larger meandering to make the center and the leaves pop.  the backing fabric is even Jacobean!

Lovely Pastel

In keeping with the pastel colors, Mary chose Sunlight Yellow and Simply Clematis to finish this quilt and match the buttery yellow backing.

Mary_carpenters_star_closeup.jpg (47053 bytes)   Mary_carpenters_star_back.jpg (48055 bytes)

Carpenter's Star

Mary made this Christmassy Carpenter's Star.  We used dill-colored thread to emphasize the holly leaves in the panel border.  We also used the pantograph "Chrissy" to add some softness to the square lines.

 

MaryS_holly.jpg (49373 bytes)

MaryS_holly_closeup.jpg (46915 bytes)   MaryS_holly_back.jpg (47621 bytes)

Merry Christmas

Mary used wonderful Christmas fabric and a different colorway of the holly border for this quilt.  We repeated the dill thread and this time used a holly over-all patterns.
