Put the Kettle On from Night Owl Quilting

 



This bold an beautiful quilt belongs to Reneta who loves yellow. Reneta received the blocks as part of a Queen Bee block swap that we both participated in last year. 


Reneta selected the free "Put the Kettle On" block from the Snapshot quilt a long that the Fat Quarter Shop hosted.  She sent each of the participants a piece of bold yellow Ruby Star spark fabric and in return everyone made her two blocks.


It was really fun to see all the different fabrics that everyone chose to make all the unique teapots.


Reneta selected the London Fog pantograph which ...

Cutting Curves from Straight Pieces from Night Owl Quilting


Here is another batik beauty from Wendy.   The pattern comes from the book "Cutting Curves from Straight Pieces" by Debbie Bowles of Maple Island Quilts.  


Wendy chose the London Fog pantograph and beautiful Magnifico Thread in a color called Fig Tree #2081.  I always love the shiny thread on the waxy batiks.


And the quilting shows up beautifully on the cozy fireside backing.

Karen's One Block Wonder from Night Owl Quilting


This is Karen's unique take on a One Block Wonder quilt.  Karen always seems to find a way to include some unexpected details in her quilts - on both the front and back.


The border details add such interest to the quilt.

 

Often with OBW quilts, makers like to include a piece of the original fabric in the border or on the back of the quilt.  I love how Karen framed out the different motifs from her feature fabric in a strip on the back of the quilt.  



Karen chose the London fog pantograph which adds nice texture and somehow ...

I'm still here.... from Night Owl Quilting

It has been over two months since there has been any activity here.  I have busy quilting for my clients and enjoying my summer filled with fishing and camping and my oldest daughter's wedding!  Sitting down to edit photos and post them never seemed to make it to the top of the priority list.  Now that September has arrived I decided that I better make an attempt to get caught up in sharing some of the wonderful quilts that have visited my studio in the last few months!  Starting the catch up phase with four beauties today...


First up ...

Amy's "Our Hearts Will Go On" from Night Owl Quilting



This is Amy's stunning version of the "Our Hearts Will Go On" quilt by The Fabric Addict.



Amy chose the London Fog pantograph and a wide Stonehenge backing from my selection  She left the thread selection up to me.  It is always a bit tricky to commit to a thread colour when the fabrics in the quilt go from very light to very dark.  I used a shiny Magnifico thread in a color called Horizon- 2146 that was a nice middle ground and looked nice across the quilt.




I know Amy is giving the quilt away to a special ...

Karen's Memory Quilts from Night Owl Quilting




I recently had the privilege of quilting three very special quilts for Karen. Karen made three unique memory quilts for her sisters out of their father's shirts.


The first one based on the Crossroads quilt block, got the London Fog pantograph.







The second one got the Gingersnap pantograph.





The third one, based on the "Chandelier 2 " pattern got the Plush pantograph.



When Karen came to pick up the quilts she brought along the labels she had made, and I think they are awesome.  She used the shirt collars in the most creative way.  Each of her sisters selected a ...

I can't believe that I didn't make in single blog post in the month of January!  I have been busy quilting, spending time with family and even attended  and I am looking forward to getting caught up and sharing some wonderful quilts I had the pleasure of working on.

Some of the blocks are fussy cut squares and some are four patches cut from the same section of the print.


The ...
