What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

This beautiful quilt was made by three friends as a gift for one of their daughters.  The pattern is called Flower Pot by Kim McLean for Glorious Color.

There is an immense amount of hand appliqué all done in an amazing collection of Kaffe Fassett fabrics.

When Leslie booked the quilt in she told me they were interested in custom quilting.  After some discussion and looking for other examples, and discussing their likes and dislikes, we came to the conclusion that an allover design might be a better fit for this quilt.  I had done a quilt with hand applique ...

Art East Quilting Company has some of the most fun patterns on the market today.  Recently two of them came through my studio.  First up is this darling quilt made by Shelly. This pattern is called "Cattle Call."  

I just loved the colours Shelly used.   Shelly decided on the Bora Bora pantogrpah and a medium green thread.

Next up is Cindy's "Trending" quilt that was a Block of Month project from Art East over the last year.  Cindy selected her own farbics in a very similar color palette to what was offered in the original kit.

Kristine made this stunning version of the Our Hearts Will Go On quilt.  I have quilted a few of these and I am still impressed with this creative take on a classic Storm at Sea block.

Kristine selected one of my Northcott Stonehenge wide backs that paired well with the Northcott Shimmer fabric that comprised the front.

Yet another quilt that could have easily stayed and lived with me!

Margaret sent this very unique Lake Views quilt.  The pattern is by Doug Leko of Antler Quilt Designs and features Holly Taylor's  Lake View fabric.  Margaret recently moved to the lake full time, so this quilt couldn't be more perfect.

Margaret selected the Ripples pantograph, and it finishes it off perfectly.

Next up is a lovely Log Cabin quilt.  How can you go wrong with a classic like this?

 

The breath of the gods pantograph was the choice to finish this one.

And last but not least is something completely different - a modern quilt pattern that Margaret found ...

In the spirit of catching up on sharing more of the lovely quilts that have been hiding on my camera roll I have four more for you today!  First up are two from Mitzie.  The first one, Mitzie referred to as her "Arizona quilt.'  After I sent some pantograph options, Mitzie decided that the Breath of the gods pantograph was just the look to complete her vision.

This lovely quilt was made by Reneta.  The pattern is called Winter Solstice by Patti Carey.  Reneta had the staff at Road 17N in Winkler put together a kit for her that very closely resembles the cover of the pattern.
