Two Christmas Dresdens

Pat made two of these Christmas dresden plate table toppers. 

holly leaves, curls, berries

I custom quilted feathers and curls in the blades.

For the second one, mostly the same, only a different outer border.

The backside.

Thanks Pat!

Pat's Blue Log Cabin

Pat made this small log cabin quilt in wintery blues.

I custom quilted some half feathers and loops in the borders.

I decided it would look best to use a blue and a white thread in each area.

I quilted all-over swirlies and circles.

A look at the back.

Thanks Pat!

 

Diane's Pineapple

Diane made this super fun pineapple quilt in batiks.

I had fun custom quilting it a bit. 

Leafy feathers in the top.

A super swirly feather and circles in the background, and a funky feather in the border.

I did a fun clamshell series in the pineapple part.

Thanks Diane for this fun one!

 

American Hero Quilt

This quilt is a special one for American Hero Quilts- a charity that gives quilts to wounded service men and women who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan wars. I signed up to volunteer as a quilter, so a box full of 4 tops and backings was sent to me to quilt and send back to be finished and sent to a very deserving recipient. 

I did a fancy feather in the solid navy border.

An all-over in the center area. I love how this quilt is so simple in construction, yet a lot of thought and effort was put into the placement of all the directional stripes as well as the way the red and blue frame the setting blocks.

Thanks to whomever made the quilt, and especially to whomever receives it! Glad to be able to have a hand in it.

Carol's Scrappy 9-patch variation

Carol made this fun variation of a 9-patch quilt by adding a couple extra set of narrow strips- resulting in a rectangular block. It's cool.

I quilted all-over paisley and leaf echo design.

I filled in those super awkward tight little spaces with a double bubble here and there. I was going for a bit of a more masculine vibe. 

Thanks Carol!

Joanne and Carol's Quilt

Joanne made this vibrant and colorful quilt.

I quilted it with an all-over design of a feathered paisley.

A look at the white back.

Carol made this red and brown star quilt. 

I quilted the brown border with a little curl and feather.

The rest of it is an all-over with feathered paisleys.

Thanks Ladies!
