  • Master Bedroom Quilt
    Master Bedroom Quilt

    I wanted a double sided quilt that could be used for every day on one side and the holidays on the other. I used 2 quilt patterns I found in the 2014 QUILTERS NEWSLETTER best Christmas quilts - CHRISTMAS CARDS and a modified version of Merry & Bright.

  • Log Cabin
    Log Cabin

    My husband wanted a quilt, and he likes the Civil War Reproduction fabrics. So, thus this quilt was born. I pieced and quilted it on Juki 98Q.

  • Peg Quilt
    Peg Quilt

    Saw this in a quilt shop and liked the use of French General fabric - and it looked quite straight-forward sine we were going to attempt machine quilting ourselves on our Bernina 750QE machine with BSR.

  • Under the Texas Stars
    Under the Texas Stars

    My younger brother is a RN and has taken on the responsibility for our elderly father (and mother before she passed in 2013). He has loved quilts since our great grandmother made each of my siblings an "around the world" quilt top many years ago. Only one is still in use as the others were used to the point of extinction. As a thank you for all he has done for our parents, my sister and I decided to make this quilt for him and gave it to him this past 4th of July. We are proud native Texans so felts this would be the perfect quilt for his bed.

  • Penelope
    Penelope

    I inherited a zillion squares, all in beige, from an elderly lady who passed. It has been up to me to try to figure out what she envisioned for the final quilt. I "talk" to Penelope whenever I work on the quilt, hoping I am making her happy.

  • My First Quilt
    My First Quilt

    Started to make this quilt for my grandmother. She raised my sister and I, so she was more like my Mom. She passed away before I finished it. Now I have it and use it when I really miss her.

  • Tree of Life
    Tree of Life

    I won a Tree of Life panel at a local quilting get together but wasn't sure what to do with it. Eventually I found and used the pattern "Spotlight" by Mountainpeek Creations. Fabrics are from the peacock and tree of life line by Timeless Treasures. Ginny at Candy Mountain Quilting did the machine quilting for me. I added about 500 crystals. They are hard to see in the photo but if you look carefully at the flower stamens, bird eyes and trailing leaves you can see some of them. This is the quilt that won a blue ribbon at the county fair.

  • Quick Duck Baby Quilt
    Quick Duck Baby Quilt

    Baby came 5 weeks early so had to do a quick quilt. Used a panel I found on my last North Texas shop hop. A generous Australian lady in my Bernina Yahoo group helped me with the duck shaped label. (I had never thought to apply the label directly onto the backing. I had always made the label separate and stitched it to the backing.) Unfortunately too much wine was involved when I loaded the backing onto the frame and the label is upside down on the backing.

    This is another Jenny Doan tutorial from MSQC. Large skirt that will take the place of the embarrassingly plastic one we have used for the last 5 years.

  • Giant Dahlia
    Giant Dahlia

    In fall 2014, I was fortunate enough to take a Giant Dahlia class from Suzzy Payne, a well known quilting teacher in my area. The petals of the dahlia are made from just two ombre fabrics and are fussy cut along the lengthwise grain. I machine quilted the dahlia in a radiant pattern using various colors of thread.

  • Sampler quilt
    Sampler quilt

    I made this sampler in a local quilting class in 2013, which was taught by Suzzy Payne. The batiks are from a collection by Laundry Basket quilts, but I couldn't find its name. The class helped to solidify my love of quilting and taught me a great deal about sewing. I had fun fitting this modern fabric into a more traditional quilt design.

  • Fence Rail & Nine Patch Quilt
    Fence Rail & Nine Patch Quilt

    This is another one of Jenny Doan's tutorials I had to make. I had so many nine patches left over from the Irish Chain Quilt and the background pieces already cut that I used them to make this quilt. I only had to make the fence rail pieces and the borders. I still have so many nine patches and 6 1/2" background pieces already cut that I could probably make another one of these! Haven't quilted it yet. Waiting on the Westalee ruler foot and sampler templates to arrive so I can do something other than stitch in the ditch.
