Janet's Big Blue Pinwheels

Janet made this lovely blue and white large pinwheel quilt. 

Lots of spinning pinwheels means cool summer breezes, right? So I quilted lots of large breezey swirls.

I used a white thread.

Big pinwheels and big echo-y swirls.

A peek at the back. 

Thanks Janet!

Katie's Iowa Motto

Katie made this wallhanging with paper pieced letters of the Iowa state motto.

I outlined the letters and backfilled with lots of swirls and feathery things.

I c2c'd the navy blue triangles.

For the border I quilted a wavy triangle design.

A peek at the back side.

Thanks Katie! A treasure for sure!

Lynn's Fall Panels

Lynn stitched up a few small sized quilts using some really neat printed panels. This first one features a couple of old mills. 

I quilted all-over paisley and leaves in a gray thread color.

This next one shows a couple of covered bridges with some pieced leaf blocks on the side.

This one got swirls and leaves.

This panel says: Friends, like flowers, laugh, bloom, never fade.

Another all-over with curls and leaves this time.

What fun projects! 

Thanks Lynn!

Norene's On Point 9-Patch

Norene made this fun and scrappy 9-patch on point and wanted it quilted fancy.

I quilted a loop design in the light setting squares.

In the 9-patches I did a single large loop across the top, then across the bottom, followed with a loop design back through the middle. It might make more sense in the pics below from the back side of the quilt.

For the narrow black border I quilted circles in a black thread, and just a simple old-fashioned meander in the polka dots.

The back. 

Thanks Norene!
