IQ Patterns- Swirly

white/brights quilt

Quilted with a custom design...... each row got a different texture.

Embroidered quilt

Here is another embroidered baby quilt.  I quilted the center area with a cross-hatching pattern, then outlined the figures that go around the verse, and did a simple meander on the outside border area.  

woodsy quilt

This panel quilt was finished using a pattern called "Deer Crossing" by Anne Bright.  I fit perfectly with the print in the quilt top. 

A view from the back:

Embroidered butterfly quilt

Embroidered butterfly quilt- I used the "Tangled" pattern by Anne Bright, it made me think of the way butterflies fly around in the wind.  

changed cell phones

I changed cell phone last month....so you won't be able to get a hold of me on my old cell number.  Call me at home or send me an e-mail if you need to find me.  Thanks!

New pattern available at Roelofs

Just quilted up this lap-sized quilt that will be at Roelof's store as a sample for the pattern they are carrying called "Chopsticks" by Jaybird Quilts.  Aren't the blues & greens pretty in this quilt?

I quilted it using the "Asian Leaves" pattern.  

Summer quilting

School is out for the year... which means less time in the quilting studio.  I will still be doing quilts this summer, but I may not get them back to you as fast as I do when the kids are at school.  If you have a quilt with a deadline, make sure to get on the schedule early, so that you will be able to have your quilt back by the time you need it.

rainbow quilt

Aren't the colors striking in this Trip Around the World quilt?  The rainbow colors and verse are so pretty.  The customer requested the Baptist Fans pattern, which works so well with the rainbow theme.  

T-shirt quilts

T-shirt quilts seem to be gaining more popularity every year.  I worked on quite a few of them this spring for graduations- some that I just quilted, and some that I pieced the top also.

This one was one that I pieced & quilted for a customer.  I like the random layout.  This is quilted with the square spiral pattern.  I used tan fleece on the back.

This quilt was a customer quilt, I just did the quilting, using the Bayside pattern.  I usually like to keep the quilting pattern more simple, so it doesn't distract from the shirt emblems.  This quilt has a more traditional straight layout.  The red cornerstones are striking with the black sashing.

This next quilt is also a straight layout, quilted with the Saturn Swirls pattern.

And this quilt was quilted with a free-hand custom design.  Each block was quilted differently, going around the image on the shirt.

And lastly, this one is set in vertical rows.  It's quilted with the Honeycomb pattern.

Chevron pattern

I designed this all-over pattern a while back to go on a quilt with chevron fabrics, which are quite popular right now.

Centennial Quilt

Our town is having it's 125th anniversary this year, and this quilt was made to mark that occasion.  I was given some old photographs of buildings of the town, and made line drawings from those.  I did the embroidered blocks by hand, and a friend & fellow quilter did the pieced blocks.  The quilt will be raffled this summer.  It will be hanging in the library if you'd like to see it in person.
