Nancy's Winter Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

Nancy made this lovely winter themed quilt for her daughter. She curated a lovely grouping of fabrics from a variety of sources. There are some prints from Kate and Birdie's Winter Lane collection, a lovely Dear Stella floral and some other things that tie it together beautifully.

Nancy selected the Windswept pantograph which adds some nice movement.

I just love the Dear Stella print that is on the back.

Raise the Woof! from Night Owl Quilting

Karen made this unique One Block Wonder quilt for a friend. Karen started with a panel from the Raise the Woof line by Connie Haley. Karen removed most of the blue sashing before she began cutting the pieces for the blocks.

When you look closely at the individual blocks you can start to see some of the eyes, noses, tongues and letters.

The border adds another little bit of interest to the quilt and frames it nicely.

Karen rarely gives me a plain piece of backing fabric. She added a few pieces from another coordinate from the line. The Windswept ...

Nothin' Like a Puffin and more from Reneta from Night Owl Quilting

Reneta brought a pile of small projects for me to enjoy. First up is her version of the Nothin' Like A Puffin pattern from Art East. I have quilted a lot of quilts for Reneta so I have a pretty good handle on her likes and dislikes, so I sent her one picture with the Windswept pantograph as my suggestion. She agreed and I do think it was the perfect fit.

Reneta also made a cute set of Hi ghway 10 Designs' Roundabout placemats. The forest themed focus fabric called out for the Oak Breeze pantograph.

Reneta has 3 grandchildren ...

Black and Bold from Night Owl Quilting

Sherry brought this fun quit full of bold colors. I'm not sure what the pattern is exactly, but it seems to ne a take on a Blackford's Beauty block or a Stepping Stones block.

Sherry chose the Windswept pantograph for a pretty and simple finish.

Sherry supplied this lovely wide back from the Figo Elements collection.

Christmas Irish Chain from Night Owl Quilting

Karen used her Christmas scraps to make this lovely Irish Chain quilt. We used the Windswept pantograph and a shiny thread to add some subtle glitz.

Karen always has a way of adding something unexpected to her quilts, and it is often found on the back. This time Karen used this fun panel on the back. The rest of the backing is Cuddletex fabric. While I wouldn't recommend mixing such different fabrics because of the difference in thickness, things turned out fine. I had been concerned that the tension may have looked off going from the Cuddletex to the ...

Mummers Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

If you aren't from Newfoundland, Canada you might not have any idea what this quilt is all about. The Christmastime costumed cultural tradition of Mummering is very interesting to read about. Here is one article from McLeans's. Amanda brought this beauty that she worked on with her mom.

This scrappy masterpiece began with the centre printed panels that were designed by Ralph Jarvis and are available through the Quilted Stash. I love how the border around each panel is a unique in its scrappy piecing.

Amanda selected the Windswept pantograph and white So Fine thread. It adds nice ...

Lug Nuts with a Bee Theme from Night Owl Quilting

This fabulous Lug Nuts quilt was made by Reneta. This is the 4th version of the Highway 10 Designs pattern that Reneta has made. She obviously enjoys putting these together!

Reneta was making this quilt for a specific person and bees were an important part of his family. Reneta purchased a selection of Bee themed fabrics online, which is always a little scarier when they aren't all from one collection. You need 9 - 1 yard cuts to create this quilt, so that certainly simplifies an online purchase.

The Windswept pantograph was the perfect choice for this quilt. Reneta asked ...

West Hawk from Night Owl Quilting

Barb made her take on the West Hawk quilt from The Blanket Statement as a gift for a friend.

The range of Art Gallery Pure Sold fabrics that Barb selected is very pretty. Barb chose the Windswept pantograph for a lovely finish. Sometimes deciding on a thread color is the hardest decision. We opted for a cream thread that matched the accent pieces in the pattern.

I do love the texture that the Windswept pattern adds to this quilt.

MPQ Mystery from Night Owl Quilting

Val made this quilt as part of a mystery quilt sew along offered through the Manitoba Prairie Quilters earlier this year. The pattern was designed by one of the MPQ members - Kathy Paul.

Val chose the Windswept pantograph. I love the movement that it adds across the sharp lines of the piecing. We used a charcoal grey thread that doesn't draw attention away the great piecing and beautiful colours of the fabric.

Have you ever participated in a mystery quilt project? I have done a few- some I’ve loved, some I’ve changed to make me happier. It ...

Hockey Jersey #2 from Night Owl Quilting

This is the second quilt that Cathy made with her grandson's hockey jerseys. You can see the first one here. This is quite a heavy quilt as it is big enough to cover my queen size bed and has a cozy plush backing as well.

The Windswept pantograph was a hit on the first smaller quilt, so we repeated the design on the one. This is such a special memory that I'm sure will be treasured for many many years to come.

Horse Barn Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

Tanis put together this lovely Horse Barn quilt for her mom. The pattern was designed by Daine McGregor of Castilleja Cotton for the Sun Up to Sun Down Digital Panel by Hoffman Fabrics.

Tanis requested a light density pantograph, and after showing her some suggestions she decided that Windswept was the choice.

The coazy fireside backing always shows off the quilting and makes for such a warm quilt.

Hockey Jersey Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

When Cathy asked me if I would be able to quilt a quilt made of hockey jerseys, I didn't really know the answer. I hadn't tried anything like this, but my Innova is an industrial machine with a 1 HP motor, so I was willing to give it a try. Cathy brought me some scraps from the jerseys and crests and name badges that didn't make it into the quilt. I tested it out and it went smoothly so I was happy to tackle the quilt.

These jerseys all belonged to Cathy's grandson so this quilt ...

Penguin Party from Night Owl Quilting

Leslie made this absolutely fabulous Penguin Party quilt. The pattern is from Elizabeth Hartman and Leslie supersized this into a generous Queen Size by using 56 penguin blocks,

Leslie chose the Windswept pantograph that provides a nice even design that compliments the penguins without competing with them.

Leslie opted to have the binding added by my associate Marion, and the black frames it very nicely.

I am happy to have a high ceiling and a willing quilt holding husband to be able to get a full picture of this one!

Lone Star from Night Owl Quilting

Susan made this pretty Lonestar quilt for her granddaughter, who chose the fabrics herself. All the shades from the butterfly batik border were pulled out for the star and the background making a really cohesive and attractive quilt.

Susan chose the Windswept pantograph for a simple finish that lets the star shine.

Susan really did a great job putting this one together. The center where all those seams converge laid flat and didn't require any extra attention from me. Lone Star are notorious for needing a little extra longarmer love, but not this time!

Juxtaposition from Night Owl Quilting

Wendy loves buying and sewing with batiks - a women after my own heart. She dug into her scraps and stash to pull out these jewel tone fabrics to make this rich quilt. The pattern is called Juxtaposition and was design by Amy of Blue Underground Studios. The pattern is available as a free download from All People Quilt.

We decided a nice curving pantograph would be a nice compliment to the simple straight lines of the piecing. Windswept was the choice of the day with a dark teal Magnifico thread.

Wendy brought a mottled teal Fireside for the backing which ...

Flea Market Flowers from Night Owl Quilting

My pictures do not do this beautiful quilt justice. Marlene hand appliqued this Flea Market Flowers quilt. The pattern is from Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnet.

This is the second hand appliqued quilt that Marlene requested an edge to edge finish on. She chose the Windswept pantograph that adds a simple finish. I wasn't sure how I would feel about an edge to edge pattern over hand applique but I was really pleased with the end result.

This last photo is more true to the actual colours of the quilt in person.

Audrey's Panel One Block Wonder from Night Owl Quilting

This festive quilt was made by Audrey. This version of a One Block Wonder is made with a total of 7 of the same panel. One panel is left whole, which you see in the center of the quilt, and the remaining six panels are turned into the hexagon blocks.

It is always interesting to see all the unique blocks that are created with this technique.

Audrey selected the Windswept pantograph and a pretty gold Magnifico thread that adds just the right amount of shine.

Audrey also had a very pretty coordinate for the backing.

A really unique and dynamic ...

Botanist Home Quarter from Night Owl Quilting

Shalane made this beautiful warm quilt using the Botanist collection by Katarina Roccella for Art Gallery Fabrics. The border fabric is from the Seasons of Tribute, Roots of Nature collection.

The pattern is a favorite from Highway 10 Designs - Home Quarter.

Shalane chose the Windswept pantograph for a lovely finish that doesn't' compete with any of the beautiful prints.

$3.31 Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

I followed along with a mystery quilt that was sponsored by the Canadian Quilters Association over the last few months. The pattern was free to members. The pattern is called the $3.31 quilt and was designed by John at Art East Quilting Company. The name comes from the fact that the images are those depicted on the Canadian coins that total $3.31.

I didn't use the suggested fabrics, but rather bought the blue denim Northcott canvas for the background and picked the rest of the fabrics from my stash. I was happy to still have some of ...

Laura's Halloween Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

Laura brought me her first quilt that is made with some really cool Halloween prints. She made this quilt for her daughter.

The print with the blue background has some cool spider web, skulls and moths hidden among the flowers.

Laura and her daughter selected the windswept pantograph for the quilting and the shiny black Magnifico thread.
