Jordan's Scrappy Stars with Sashing and Corner Blocks Quilt in Greens and Brown


Jordan commissioned me to make this quilt for her. She found the pattern she liked on the Robert Kauffman website called "Pearl Stars." I altered/enlarged the pattern to fit the size she wanted and instructed Jordan as to how much fabric she needed. 


Once she had found them, I made the quilt. 


I quilted it with Cream Glide on the top and Cream Glide 60 thread on the back and used the "Maureen's Wandering Leaves" pantograph from Urban Elementz to quilt it. Jordan loved it.

Lawrence's Queen Double Disappearing 9-Patch Quilt in Orange and Blue


As promised, here is the matching quilt.


 This queen size quilt will go to my grandson when he's 8-years-old. He got the smaller, crib/lap size, one right away, but this one will wait until it won't be dragged around the house.


The fabrics were from my stash. Quilted with the pantograph "Diamonds are Forever" by Urban Elementz using Light Blue So Fine thread on the top and White Glide 60 thread on the back.


Here are the two together.

Lawrence's Double Disappearing 9-Patch Baby Quilt


I finished this double disappearing 9-patch quilt just in time for my newborn grandson. This smaller, (crib/lap size) one he got right away. I also made a queen size one for him to get when he's older. That post will be next. 


Quilted with the pantograph "Diamonds are Forever" from Urban Elementz using Light Blue So Fine thread on the top and White Glide 60 on the back.


 Fabrics are all from my stash.

Dorothy's Bright Squares on Point



This bright creation was made by Dorothy for a family member.


 I quilted it with Glide and Glide 60 Military Gold using the Hall of Mirrors pantograph by Urban Elementz.


Such a fun scrappy back, as well. It's like having 2 quilts for the price of one!

Jeanette's Speedy Scrappy Quilt


This beautiful quilt, mostly batiks (from her stash!) was made by Jeanette as a gift to be given the next weekend. Whew! We made it just in time! 


I quilted it with Mocha Glide/ Glide 60 thread and used Time Warp pantograph, putting the quilt on the frame sideways so the waves go side to side instead of up and down.

Kellie's Star Quilt by Sue in Navy and Brights


This quilt top was made for Kellie by Sue and I was asked to quilt it. 
Kellie and I chose the "Knit 1 Purl 2" pantograph by Urban Elementz. 


Thread color was tricky with the large areas of darks and lights, but we went with a MicroQuilter navy blue thread on both front and back and it worked great.

Loren's Scrappy Memory Lightweight Summer Quilt


The beautiful drape on Loren's quilt is due in part to the lightweight cotton batting as well as the very lightweight cotton (shirting?) material she made it from.  


She wanted the quilt to be super lightweight for summer.



 Custom quilting in Cream Glide thread. Swirls in the borders and sashing and straight lines in the squares; some horizontal, vertical, diagonal and a squared off spiral. 


 Two functional pockets add a little whimsy.

Dorothy's Geometric Plaid Quilt


This quilt top was made by Dorothy for a family member who wanted very geometric quilting -- no curves. The contempo pantograph we chose (from Urban Elementz) was perfect for her. 


I used Light Tan Glide thread on the top and Mocha Glide 60 on the back which blended really well.
