What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Shelly made this fantastic strawberry quilt.  The pattern is called Just add Shortcake by Wendy Shepherd.

The prints in the collection make me think of some fun vintage sheets.  The Lithe pantograph doesn't seem to get used all that often around here, but was a lovely compliment to this quilt.

It is always a nice surprise when you get to see the quilting on a solid backing.

In amongst all of the client quilts that filtered through my studio, I did manage to finish a Christmas gift for my mother and father in law.  They downsized into a new place over the summer and bought some new smaller furniture including a new kitchen table, so a set of placemats and table runner to match was a fun idea.

This pretty version of our Highway 10 Designs Petal Junction quilt was made by Leslie at Keystone Modern Creative as a store sample.  Leslie chose to feature the "From Far and Wide " fabric collection by Kate and Birdie for Moda Fabrics.

The large blocks of the Petal Junction pattern allow you to see so much of the detail of the prints.  It works with Half Yard or Fat Quarter cuts 

Leslie chose the Lithe pantograph for the quilting and it shows up beautifully on the green Fireside backing.
