Playing Catch Up

Finally attached all the little crystal on this baby.....    Taking it for show and tell tomorrow for our longarm guild.    Panels are so easy to practice on and give as gifts.   The next class I teach it will be with panels,  straight line, feathers, micro fill and etc.     What fun!

Playing catch up.....    Customers quilt from her mother,   all hand pieced.    Semi custom quilting this to get rid of the fullness and securing the little stitches .....    I could just see her sitting and piecing this together. 

New Quilt Inspiration

Put this bouquet together,  found a bag of potpourri that matched on sale while I was at Michael's  yesterday......   These colors inspired me to come up with a quilt pattern for the bedroom.    Now to find the right fabric..  Thinking it is time to start going through my stash first before I hit the quilt shops. 

Got off FB  for a year to focus on my blogging...   the computer is all set up with EQ7 and my design software.   The studio is clean an rearrange and I'm ready to start quilting again.

I'M BACK

Just got my new computer so I can start posting again.

This is what I'm working on this week...  as you remember I pieced this top four years ago when I lived up in northern Wisconsin.   Decided it was time to finish up with all the UFO.   I'll post pictures as I quilt this top.

                                        One layer of wool batting, glide thread which I love.

Catch Up

Trying to get caught up with some of the tops that I quilted a few years ago.   Didn't have the heart to cut up the fabric.   Making a couple of pillows to go with it to sell. 

Back of the quilt throught the mirror under the frame

Hearts Galore

 38 x 60 vintage cross stitch tablecloth,  stitch by an 82 young lady who has passed on.   When I saw that they were selling all her thing and spotted this piece  I just  had to have it.    I had the pleasure of quilting one of her other pieces for a granddaughters wedding gift.   She would be happy to see what this table cloth looks like.

 This was a fun piece to quilt.   Used 80/20 batting and a fusible for this wall hanging or tablecloth.

Quilted tiny hearts in the background fill for a little added interest.  That's show I came up with the name.

Of coarse the BACK....    tablecloth to wholecloth!
