What's on the Quilting Frame? A baby quilt by Sheila L. Sheila saw a picture of a quilt online and figured out how to write up her own instructions. She started with a panel (the sayings like Mom, Dad, Love, Happy Birthday, etc). Then she added in her scraps and finished it with cute ladybug fabric. She chose the quilting pattern Interlocking Hearts. Then she chose Red Sea, a variegated red and pink thread.
What's on the Quilting Frame? A quilt I made for my nephew for moving into his new apartment - everyone needs a new quilt for that, right? So this is in the style of mid century modern fabrics. I used the quilting pattern Interlocking Dots. Then I used a variegated gold and turquoise thread called Southwest Soul.
What's on the Quilting Frame? A pretty quilt from Billie S called Calliope. (a free pattern from Coriander Quilts). Billie chose the quilting pattern Interlocking Hearts. Then we used a white thread, because it showed up best on all the colorful fabrics.
What's on the Quilting Frame? Cathy F's (of Sonflower Quilts) Antique Dresden Plate quilt. Cathy purchased this quilt top, cleaned it carefully, then had me quilt it for her. She chose the quilting pattern Winding Feathers, which is appropriate for a vintage quilt. Then we used white thread, which is what would have been used.
What's on the Quilting Frame? Cathy F's (of Sonflower Quilts) Green Sampler quilt. Cathy chose the quilting pattern Modern Meander. Then we used a variegated green thread called Oasis.
What's on the Quilting Frame? Kristin P's awesome batik quilt called Log Cabin Sampler. This was a block of the month from The Quilt Patch from last year. Kristin chose the quilting pattern Orange Peel. This is a traditional quilting pattern and totally fits the log cabin blocks. Then we used a variegated beige and tan thread called Sand Storm.
