Floral Wedding OP 51, 52 from Virtual Quilter

Oh, so pretty! Oh, so many tiny flowers to applique, though perhaps they could be embroidered, by hand or machine. The machine sounds like a good option!

If it was to be a real wedding quilt the block spaces could be used for wedding guests to sign, along with details of the wedding party and immediate family.

A project which has been waiting patiently in my Electric Quilt files to make a debut as a virtual quilt.

I am loving the designs I can create using the block collection I have put together.

Judy’s Jumble 3, 4 from Virtual Quilter

A mix of applique block designs. I usually use just one floral design, but in this project file I have mixed up the floral designs and all their variations.

I am even mixing up the colours of threads used in the quilting motifs, which are based on applique designs.

Unique Umbrella Flower 3, 4 from Virtual Quilter

Very pretty!

This project file grew from the project I used yesterday, and there were several othe files which were started about the same time. I should have tried harder to find some different coloured flowers, but then I try yo keep the flowers in my real garden within a pink/purple/blue range, always with green of course.

Also very pretty and it has a quilting motif as well.

Kelly’s Custom Quilts 41, 42 from Virtual Quilter

Lovely, and interesting.

These quilt designs started with a layout created with a pieced block with just squares and rectangles. In a real quilt the background colours could be the same all over, or could use pale, low contrast fabrics to show the original block in large scale.

~ Home Again and Playing ~ from Podunk Pretties

Howdy Sweet Quilting Friends!  Today I'm doing what I do best, making a HUGE fun mess.  Pulling fabric is the best part of quilting, don't you think?  I'm digging deep into the stash to find my most loved pieces of out of print Lakehouse Drygoods fabrics.  Some of these I forgot I owned.  My original plan for this quilt was to work only from the scrap bins.  But there just isn't enough variety of prints and scale of prints.  I'll use what I can from the scrap bins then supplement with the larger pieces.  In ...

~ Christmas Joy Quilt ~ from Podunk Pretties

Hello Happy Quilters!  I'm so excited to finally get my Christmas Joy Quilt off the frame.  This is a fairly small quilt and  pretty lightly quilted it should have taken no longer than 2 days to quilt.  However my ruler foot broke and then there was an issue with a back spinning bobbin.   The powers that be love to throw me a few curve balls with ever quilt.  


The quilt will be used by my grandchildren when they come to visit during the holiday season.  I wanted it to be soft and cuddly for them and have pretty quilting ...

~ Happy Little Things ~ Giveaway! ~ from Podunk Pretties

 It's hard to believe the Happy Little Things block of the month is almost over.  If you are just hearing about Jacquelynne Steves and this block of the month you can find all the information on her blog, click here.


Jacquelynne's version of this quilt could be used as a lap quilt or wall hanging.  It can be done as applique, embroidery only in the center block or just a plain pieced block.  Fussy cutting your fabric fabric for the center of the blocks would also be super cute.


 Each year as featured bloggers of Jacquelynne's block ...
