Butterfly Reborn

Alice made this gorgeous Butterfly Reborn quilt. The pattern is from the book 'Quilts Without Corners'. Alice and I both made this pattern in a class in our local guild. We were the only two brave quilters to attempt this ambitious (to us) pattern using a wedge ruler and ombre fabric. 

We rode the wave of confusion out together as we each had different revisions of the same book, and the strip sets and instructions were not the same. 

In the end it turned out beautiful and is definitely wall-hanger worthy!

The bands on the wings were a bit tricky to design, and ended up doing pebbles to fill in- using matching thread colors.

It turned out stunning Alice! 

My butterfly is purple ombre and is all pieced together, it's just still awaiting a set of antennae before it can be quilted.

 

Dresden Flower and Hawaiian Quilt

Alice brought me this lovely Dresden Flower quilt.

A rare in-progress shot of quilting the borders.

She requested to only quilt in the background as she had a plan for the pink vintage flowers.

I ended up using two layers of batting as there was some extra fullness to deal with. This allowed the quilting to show up beautifully!

Love how this quilt turned out!

Next from Alice was her Hawaiian quilt. 

I quilted all over floral designs in a yellow thread.

The quilting really shows up on the backside.

Thanks Alice!

Cracker Box Variation Quilt

Becki made this beautiful scrappy and large quilt. I believe it is a variation of a Cracker Box quilt. Lots of little strips in this one!

I quilted all over feathers in a light brown thread.

Thanks Becki!

 

Pat's Fall Table Toppers

Pat made these two table toppers from the same block pattern.

A bit of custom work.

A table runner this time.

...and quilted much the same.

Thanks Pat!

Gina's Fall String Quilt

Gina made this fun string quilt.

I quilted it with lots of all-over paisleys, circles, and leaves.

Love these fun fall and leafy outdoorsy prints!

Thanks Gina!
