Chilly Wind Chimes from Night Owl Quilting

Sherry brought this wonderful batik quilt. The pattern is called Chilly Wind Chimes from 4th and Main Designs.

Many of the batik prints had a floral motif, so the Lilac pantograph ended up being a really perfect fit.

And some minkee dot fabric to make it warm (and heavy)!

Yellow Brick Road from Night Owl Quilting

Susan made this fun Yellow Brick Road quilt. This is very popular pattern from Atkinson Designs, but I have never made one myself. Have you?

After looking at the different prints and cool border fabric, Susan settled on the Lilac Pantograph. I think it complements the floral shapes well.

Galaxy from Night Owl Quilting

This stunner was was made by Karen as an anniversary gift for her daughter and son-in-law. The pattern is called Galaxy from Studio 180 Designs.

Karen used a gorgeous batik palette and the print on the border fabric help to influence her choice of the Lilac pantograph.

Karen always adds little extra touches to her quilts. This little detail on the border corners is one example.

The other really cool feature is that Karen made this quilt to be reversible. She added a row of blocks to that back that look like a bed runner. So smart!

This Yellow Brick Road quilt was made by Mary. The fabric collection was a gift from her son.

Mary selected this Lilac pantogrpah and a taupe/brown thread that blended nicely with the front and the back.

Fireside backings have become very popular and sure do show off the quilting nicely.

This beauty is a new pattern from Prairie and Ocean that is being released tomorrow. This quilt was made my Marlene who is mom and alpha pattern tester to Janice.

Diane's Favorite Fabric Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

Have you ever loved a fabric so much that you designed a whole quilt around showcasing it? That is exactly what Diane did. This flower and butterfly print called to her and she came up with a lovely way to highlight it,

Diane chose the blue Crackle wide backing that I had on hand and asked me to pick a floral pantograph. I thought the Lilac pantograph complimented the top very nicely.

Minimal Triangles from Night Owl Quilting

This lovely quilt was made by Kristine. The pattern is called Minimal Triangles by Simple Simon and Company. You can find a free tutorial here. The pattern uses a layer cake or 10" square pack for both the focus fabric and the background and makes a generous sized quilt.

Kristine made this quilt for one of her daughters, and let her be in charge of picking the pantograph. I think her choice of the Lilac pantograph is just perfect, and it looks fabulous on the cuddle backing.

Pink Batiks and a Pretty Christmas Throw from Night Owl Quilting

Sherry selected the Lilac pantograph that is becoming a favorite around here.

Next up is a lovely Christmas quilt made by Dianne. She left the pantogaph selection up to me, and I added the "Windswept" pantograph. Sometimes I see wind and sometimes I see ribbons.

Charming Additions from Night Owl Quilting

Val made this lovely quilt entirely from her stash. She has been on a stash busting roll lately as you can see by her other recent finish. The pattern is called Charming Additions and was published in the December 2012 edition of American Patchwork and Qulting Magazine.

Val selected the Lilac pantograph which is fast becoming a customer favorite around here. She also selected a grey Stonehenge wide back from my collection, so I decided to use a grey thread for the quilting. I probably could have selected just about any colour, as I think they are all included in ...

Vanda's Plan B Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

Vanda came up with the quilt layout not by choice but out of necessity. These fabrics were purchased as a kit a few years back to make one of the Maple Island BQ quilts, but there wasn't enough fabric in the kit to keep the directional black and white fabric all going in the same direction. Vanda knew that would bother her, so time for plan B.

It took us awhile to settle on a pantograph. I was surprised how much we both liked the Lilac pantograph. The flowers on flowers seemed to play nice and not add more ...
