Karen’s “Squares” quilt is perfect for the Gothic Vine pantograph. The scroll design of the pantograph compliments the architectural feel of the quilt. The batting is Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton select.
Joanie has made a quilt that perfectly displays the Dizzy Pantograph and Superior Threads King Tut variegated thread.
This quilt is awesome and the quilt maker is a senior in high school! Obviously, this is not her first quilt! For me, it was an adventure to design the quilting. Shelby likes Hobbs Heirloom Wool Batting which is great for showing off the quilting designs. I decided to make something different for each element of the quilt to emphasize the sampler aspect of the quilt. My granddaughter even got involved in doodling out some designs! I think she’ll be sewing and quilting soon! Enjoy the pictures and hopefully Shelby will keep sewing after she goes to college this fall.
Barb of Rainbows and Calico Things quilt shop makes great quilts! Her fabric selection is awesome! Check out her quilt shop online or in person. Here’s one of her latest dubbed “Summer Fruits”. The placement of the greens and pinks make a super canvas for fun quilting and variegated thread. I decided to quilt it with “back and forth” feathers using the blocks as guides which creates another pattern with the stitching. The borders are quilted with separate designs and the zig zag inner border is quilted with double back and forth feathers. The batting is Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton.
My dear friend Christal just celebrated a birthday and I sent her this quilt! Thanks to Candy, Double Nickel Quilt Challenge, for agreeing to pool our blue and yellow fabrics to make this quilt (actually we have enough to make 4!). I love how the fabrics create a secondary pattern and the “corner/middle/corner” quilting in the blocks creates more secondary patterns with the stitching. I used variegated thread in the outer and inner borders and solid yellow for the center blocks. The batting is Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton.
