Felicity's quilt

Here's Joan S's beautiful Words quilt for her granddaughter Felicity. Joan designed this pattern completely by herself - from all the words, the layout, colors, everything! She chose a quilting pattern with hearts in white thread. Joan even put her granddaughter's name on the back. What an absolutely gorgeous heirloom quilt!

4x5 T-shirt quilt

Debbie P came into my studio and had me make a tshirt quilt for her daughter. This quilt is a 4x5, which will fit a full size bed or lots of width on an extra-long twin bed. They chose a light gray sashing with a royal blue backing and binding. The quilting pattern is called Interlocking Loopy 2.

Handkerchief quilt

Marianne C made a quilt using her mother's handkerchiefs. I did custom quilting on this - which means I did different freehand quilting motifs around each handkerchief. It turned out to be a beautiful quilt. The last 2 pictures are what the quilting looked like on the back of the quilt.

African Hexagons Quilt

Linda R brought in her African Hexagons charity quilt for me to quilt. Linda was the long-time quilt shop manager at the Threads of Tradition shop at Sauder Village. Linda chose the quilting pattern Keys and used an Olde Golde thread. The combination of the thread and pattern accented the quilt really well.

Pumpkin Patch Shop Hop quilt

My Mom, Martha H, had me quilt her 2015 Pumpkin Patch Shop Hop quilt. The quilt blocks were all different buildings and used peppered cottons. I quilted it with a variegated blue/gray thread and the pattern Cloudy Swirly Day. Looks awesome!

College Bound!

I'm moving my daughter into college, so I'll be taking the week off from work. Be back next week! Go Bearcats!!!

Kendyl's Tshirt Quilt

Robin H came in with tshirts for her daughter Kendyl - to have a graduation t-shirt quilt made. These were some of her favorite shirts. Pink was chosen as a border between the shirts and we also used the quilting pattern Daisies. A nice variegated pink thread really brought the whole quilt together. Congratulations Kendyl!
