Client Quilts

I can't believe 2 months have past!  Its been such a busy busy time - quilting, working, kids, birthdays etc etc.  I have so much to show you.

So today we will start with a few quilts I've worked on over the last few months.  

First up is Kristin's Christmas Scrappy quilt - LOVE how the blue makes it look like an Irish Chain quilt.  


She chose Sprigs of Holly for her quilting.  This is a newer pattern and I love it!

Judy made this cute table topper and now I need one!


We used posies for the quilting - and it turned out so cute.  I'm wondering how this would work out of mini charms!


Marsha made this beautiful floral quilt - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the black prints in this quilt!

She picked 30s Flower for the quilting. 

 Doesn't it look pretty on the minky!

This is Becca's sampler quilt - I loved looking at all the blocks as I quilted.  
 She chose flirtatious.  I have to say this is one of my favorite patterns to add texture.  It always looks great without over taking the quilt pattern or fabrics.  

You can't see very well - as it was a BRIGHT day when I was taking this pictures, but she had a big block on her backing with all of the names of the blocks stitched on it.  Such a cute idea for a sampler quilt!


Becca's other quilt was this fun hourglass/hst quilt.  
 Love the white background.
 She chose popcorn for the quilting which looked fun on the solid backing too!
 Red Letter Day - oh I've missed you.  This is a sample quilt for Quiltique in Las Vegas.
 They have it kitted up and ready to make just like the original.  We used the cable pattern - I mean how could you not?  
 Love this blue backing!

Liz brought me this fun zig zag quilt - I don't know the name of the pattern - but a sample was hanging up at Pine Needles here locally so I've had a few cross my path.  I've loved every one!

I chose bubble meander for this one - I love the texture it adds in the white. 

  And the number backing - LOVE IT!

Liz's other quilt was this cute simple square quilt for her granddaughter.  I loved the fun bright colors and the geometric border - I need some of this fabric!
  I chose Excited for the quilt pattern - its a new fun floral I've been using a little bit lately.  I love that it has a flower and swirls all into one!  Its one of my favs right now.  



She had a green minky backing - I always love how the design shows up on minky

Just a quick post today to show you what I've been working on!  I've got more coming later this week!

A look at a few quilts from the last few months - 

Bubbles was the quilt pattern used. 
I love a good jelly roll stripe quilt!  I want fall to be here!

 Quilted Harvest Time - which looked so cute, even though its hard to tell in these pictures.  

Looked great on the minky

This is a quilt/table runner combo.  By adding a runner to the bottom of her quilt Kathy didn't have to pay the minimum quilting rate - GREAT IDEA!

She picked Rapture - I hadn't used it before and really like how it turned out!

Love how it looks on minky!

I love grey and yellow - this quilt was so fun to quilt.  

Loops and Daisies fit it perfectly. 

Love how this pattern looks on minky!


 Pictures this day were too bright - and the pictures do not do this quilt justice!  It was such a cool design to see.  

 We tried a newer design called Modern Leaves and I love how it turned out!
Again, sun was bright  so hard to see, but this pattern is really cute!


 I believe this is a Cluck Cluck Sew pattern made by Jodi from Pleasant Home for a gift.  

We did Bubbles on this one - which is perfect with the geometric fabrics and baby quilt.  

I love this next block.  I know its simple, but every time I see it - I love it!

We used Aspen Canopy on this quilt and it fit it great!


I LOVED this backing fabric with all the fall words
This cute little baby quilt I fell in love with.  Love all the different designs and random block sizes.  

We used Feathered Wave, which looked awesome (again even though it was hard to see)

 This fun quilt by Allison is made from a Basic Grey line I believe.  

She chose Target for her design and I love this pattern.  Simple, adds texture.  Looks great on everything!

Here is a view from the back.

That's all for today - I'm getting into Christmas quilts - so stay tuned to start drooling over them!

Three Tours Wave Quilting Design

Right now, I'm a little obsessed with this quilting design.  


When I first downloaded this design - I didn't think much of it.  It was from a Gammill release - free - didn't really enter my mind to start using it. 

Then Cindy decided she wanted it on this quilt.  Leave it to Cindy - I have followed her blog for years and her taste in fabric and patterns is like no other.  Every quilt she makes is amazing.  And every quilt she makes I want to copy!  She has an eye like no other and I'm always amazed at how perfect her quilts turn out.  

She sent me this quilt - I have to be honest, I've seen this pattern out there, and it isn't one I had to make.  I like it, but I'm ok without making it.  


She picked the 3 Tours Wave design - and I almost thought it was odd.  I hadn't used it before.  I was excited to try it - but didn't have high expectations. 


BOY WAS I WRONG!  Again - leave it to Cindy to know exactly what this quilt needed.  The whole time I was quilting this I stared at it.  I loved the quilt pattern - the solid plus signs that stand out - the way the Wave design adds movement.  I loved everything about this quilt.  I threw a picture up on Instagram and everyone else loved it too!  


To top it off - she used Ikea backing -which fit it perfectly.  

Thanks Cindy for introducing me to this design - I LOVE IT - I push it on people like a drug now because I think it looks so good on everything!  When I grow up I want to have an eye like Cindy and be able to make amazing quilts!  Thanks!
