February 2005

qsig_nemo.jpg (49333 bytes) Where's Nemo

We supplied some of the patients at TMC with a blank slate and they made this colorful quilt.  Connie assembled it and we used Interlocking Surf's Up to give the feeling of ocean waves. It represents the work of the children and will hang in the newly refurbished Children's Wing.

Susan made this cute pastel quilt for her young daughter's bed. It looked very girlish with the hearts and butterflies is the white areas.

Feathered Beauty

Jean did a wonderful job piecing all of these stack and whack wild animal blocks.  We added some contours to the quilt to make the piecing stand out with Feather Meandering.

Echo's project

Echo worked on this quilt through some tough times and ended up with a beauty.  Baroque Hearts fills the space but there are rows of quails and geckos as little surprises.  This is a very large quilt with a variety of fabric and spots of interest.  It is backed with flannel so it will be warm and toasty.

A Set

Bonnie made two "Trips around the World" quilts that are exactly the same.  We used Windy Meandering to highlite the lovely fabric and piecing.   The Green union thread matched beautifully.

Larry's Sampler

Larry is a piecing perfectionist and local quilting teacher.  "Blustery Day" pantograph added motion and interest to this sampler quilt.  The variety of tones in Sand Dune thread added a little mystery.

The Cat's Been Here

Mary made this cute cat quilt for a grandchild.  The cat prints simply called for cat paws from Anne Bright's collection marching across the quilt.

Fall Snuggler

Deb pieced this lovely fall flannel quilt.  The custom quilting helped accent the blocks.  The leaves in the border might make you think of playing in a big pile before they blow away.

First Quilt

Tessa is enjoying her first quilt in Virginia.  We worked hard sending e-mails to decide that Windy Meandering in Chamois-colored thread would be exactly what she wanted.  She did a beautiful job and is a credit to her teachers.

Log Cabin

This si a very interesting Log Cabin Quilt.  Ruth enjoyed piecing it and I enjoyed working on it.  "Blustery Day' by Nichole Webb  came to life in the Sand Dune thread.

Libby is an Artist!

This quilt is made from all plain fabrics.  She brought a book showing the quilting and the custom continuous curves added just the finishing touch to the great colors and piecing.   She picked the special leaf and flower pattern for the border.  Her son will enjoy this quilt.

Twisted Bargello

Arlene made this to go on a special spot on her wall.  She finished it for a show in her community.  The quilting followed the piecing lines and really makes it twist.  The backing fabric is also in the border and it twists for sure.

T is for Tiny

Pat in North Carolina made this baby quilt for a child whose last names begins with "T".  The parents do not want to know the gender before the child is born so Pat honored the last name.  We used "Stars and Loops" to repeat the pattern in the piecing and the fabric.

Bonnie_RedDiamonds.jpg (49416 bytes)

Bonnie_RedDiamonds_closeup.jpg (47211 bytes)  Bonnie_RedDiamonds_back.jpg (49823 bytes)

Red Diamonds

The pattern is called Red Diamonds but there are lots more vibrant colors in this quilt.  The Simply Clematis quilting pattern completed the excitement of the leaves and flowers.  The thread is Yale Blue.  the back is nearly as exciting as the front.

Linda_Tractor_closeup.jpg (49824 bytes)   Linda_Tractor_back.jpg (49736 bytes)

Tire Tracks

This bright baby quilt Linda made has large machinery as its focus.  We decided on something simple like the tracks those big tires make in orange thread to keep the baby's attention .

Table Runners

Sue has two holiday table runners; one gold and one green.  We used Stars and Loops to accent the fabric.  One is in gold thread and the other in green.  She should be ready for Christmas giving.
