Dorothy's Zebra and Sheep in Blue, Coral, Grass Green, and Purple


Quilt by Dorothy. I quilted it with white Glide thread using the Kindling pantograph by Urban Elementz.


Instead of quilting it the normal way, I loaded the quilt sideways so the flame-type pattern would look more like zebra stripes.


Scrappy back.

Charity Quilt in White, Brown, and Tan


This charity quilt I quilted for my quilt guild.


I used cream Glide thread and freehanded the quilting.


Fast and easy, and I think, elegant. A great design for medium sized squares.

Embroidered Quilt in Blue, White and Aqua for Charity


Knowing that I make and/or quilt many quilts for charity, Cynthia gave me 16 hand embroidered squares with coordinating fabric to make a quilt for charity. Here it is.


Some free-hand quilting, some ruler work. Quilted with white Glide thread.

Maureen's Mountains by Swirly Girls Quilt


Beautiful top quilt made by Maureen. She doesn't want me to trim the sides as most do, that's why you see the extra back fabric.


Love the fire-on-the-mountain look as well as being very fitting for an outdoors-y firefighter.


I quilted with Sterling gray Glide (Glide 60 on the back) thread using the Kindling pantograph from Urban Elementz.

Bright Scrappy Stars Quilt for Guild


This charity quilt I quilted for my quilt guild was screaming for some custom quilting. (How many times can you use the word "quilt" in a sentence?)


I used White Glide thread and did free-motion as well as ruler work.
