The Mountains are Calling


Sharon made this super adorable quilt for her new grandson called The Mountains are Calling.


She wanted it custom quilted, but still keep it cuddly.


I added lots of texture in the mountains and pine trees.


Swirling winds in the sky.


A fancy sun.




A super cute fox.


The back was dimples minky.



Thanks Sharon!


Mary made this nice table runner. Looks like I only got a shot of half of it.

Red White and Blue Streak


Joan made this beautiful patriotic Red White and Blue Streak quilt. 


I custom quilted the border with this leaf and berry design, and used a red, white, and blue variegated thread throughout the quilt.


I love this pattern- a split 9-patch variation block just rotated and flipped into a zig-zag layout.





A look at the back. Thanks Joan!
