Selvage Quilt

Becki made this fun quilt using selvage strips.

That's a lot of fabric represented in here!

I followed the direction of the layout with wavy lines with groups of circles.

Lots of fun details in the selvages. See any familiar fabrics?

Thanks Becki! A fun quilt for sure!

Summer At Mom's Quilt

Pat made this lovely quilt called Sumer At Mom's.

I had fun with this one by adding flowers and leaves to the appliqued vines in the border.

Thanks Pat!

Marty's 10 Borders Quilt

Marty made this quilt that I decided to call the 10 Borders quilt.

Thanks Marty!

Another Red/Black T-Shirt Quilt

Joyce made this commissioned t-shirt quilt.

Red thread was requested like the last one I did for Joyce.

A look at the back and all the random designs I throw in. I guess my brain has a hard time just sticking to one or two quilting motifs in a quilt. I feel like t-shirt quilts are a good place to go random. Maybe because it's usually for a young teenager, or the different shirt designs and various interests and activities represented that feel like the green light is on to throw in different quilting designs. Maybe the large areas of negative space and the AMAZING quilting definition have something to do with it as well. 

Anyways, quilting t-shirt quilts are just about my favorite types to quilt. I don't get why some quilters will flat out not do them. Rarely do I have issues with puckering and such. 

Thanks a lot Joyce!

Cody's T-Shirt Quilt

Linda made this T-shirt quilt for her grandson who is currently a senior in high school.

I believe this quilt project will be a surprise to Cody as several of the shirts were from his Mom's wardrobe. She had ordered herself a shirt from his activities whenever he did. That's a great way to do it! Because we can probably be sure that hers are in much better shape. ha!

Thanks Linda!

Vintage Dresden Quilt

Carol brought me this beautiful vintage dresden quilt.

Each dresden was blanket stitched by hand. I quilted each plate alternating in one of two ways: petals and pebbles in the center...

...or loops with a swirl center.

The background was filled in with, uh, stuff!

Another vintage quilt that I hated to see leave!

Thanks Carol!
