One Quilt, Two Quilt

One Quilt, Two Quilt

Last January, I was at a Rainbows and Calico Things quilting retreat and Mary and Beverly were working on this quilt called Cozy Cabin.

I was excited to quilt both of them!

For Beverly’s quilt, we decided on meandering feathers throughout the quilt except in the small blue squares.

Mary decided to add the pieced border to her Cozy Cabin.  Pretty awesome!

For this quilt we decided on an E2E Peacock Feathers meander.

 

I love the light blue thread!  It looks dark on the light fabric and light on dark fabric!

 

Thanks for looking!  🙂 Linda

Waterworld Pantograph – Reversible Quilt

Waterworld Pantograph – Reversible Quilt

 

I’ve been so busy sewing postage stamp and great granny blocks, I’m behind on posting customer quilts!

Marty’s quilt is truly reversible!  For this, we decided an E2E design to compliment both sides.  And because I would not be able to see the grey thread, I picked the Waterworld pantograph for the quilting design.

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s the back view and it looks great, too!

 

 

After quilting it, I might even like the reverse side better than the front!  What do you think?

Do you make reversible quilts?

Meandering Feathers Rock!

Meandering Feathers Rock!

 

Marilyn’s quilt was perfect for freehand feather meandering.  She wanted something more than a basic meandering but not as much as custom.  It’s hard to see in this picture but we selected a soft green thread to accent the yellow fabric.

The detail shows how the feathers wander around the quilt, I love it!

I’ve been crazy busy lately, quilting quilts and having family fun!

Tomorrow, I’ll be going to a 3 day retreat  to sew all day and maybe all night!  Rainbows and Calico Things Quilt shop has a new retreat room and we’re excited to be the first group to initiate it!  I’ll be working on my UGLY fabric challenge so look for pictures to follow.  If you want to follow my retreat adventures, head over to my Facebook page, I’ll be posting pictures of our adventures!

Have a great weekend, I know I will!!!

Design Wall Monday and Meandering Feathers

Design Wall Monday and Meandering Feathers

In my effort to find fabric for cutting charms, I found some nearly finished blocks for a “bulls-eye” quilt or wall hanging.  I finished sewing the stacked concentric circles and cut them into 4 segments.

I was playing around with arrangements but I’m back to my original plan of making them into “bulls-eyes” because I will probably need to trim the finished 4-patch to a standard size.  I love the raw edges, too!

The PSQ blocks hang out on my design wall for inspiration!

Here’s a recent quilt that I finished for Emily.  The quilting design is Meandering Feathers.

Emily wanted a freehand E2E and this looks great with the big blocks and borders, adding lots of movement and texture.

I ordered a specific color of Superior OMNI thread for this quilt and used it in the needle and the bobbin with very good results.  The only difference I noticed is the need to wind more bobbins because the thread is heavier than So Fine 50, my usual bobbin thread.

Thanks for looking!  Linda
