I have been horrible about posting lately. I guess life gets in the way and I have to set my priorities. So this is me catching up….
I quilted this quilt for JoAnn in January 2016 for the PQG 2016 quilt show. She had taken a Judy Niemeyer class and had left a lot of open space for me to fill in. She was thrilled to get a 3rd place ribbon at the show.
I love doing quilting for Cena. She sends me pictures of the quilt in progress that helps get my brain in gear so when the quilt arrives I have a basic plan. We also met while she was working out some details in the piecing to talk about the idea behind the quilt.
Once again it is a white quilt – which I LOVE. I decided to use only white thread – I actually used 60 weight thread in the top and bobbin – this makes s huge difference with backtracking and thread build-up.
Te quilt was made for a color challenge and each of the pieced fabrics were to be in the quilt. I really like the whimsical feeling that the rick-rack and circles adds to the quilt.
This is a view from the long-arm.
I have a hard time deciding if I like the back of the front better. =)
I used a double layer of polyester batting which made the quilting stand out awesome.
This is an example of how I mark my quilts – the disadvantage to using the blue wash away markers is getting the quilt wet. Most of the fabrics in the quilt were not pre-washed, so there was some color bleeding – especially the reds. To help with this I recommend washing the quilt with a SMALL amount of blue dawn.
This small quilt came from a failed attempt at a lizard softie that I wanted to give to a new baby. The top of the lizard was to have a ribbon tag spine. Well it turned out to be 2 small quilts instead.
I raw edged quilted them to the solid fabric. It ended up being a great size for a lovey quilt – which is so easy to take along with baby.
This center of this quilt was made form leftovers of another quilt. I added the Pink border – and set it off center for a more modern look. I really like the scrappy binding.
I quilted each of the outer borders differently for fun and interest.
The back…
After much encouragement from friends – I have decided to open an Etsy store. My store name is IWquilt
I have had a lot of fun deciding what I am going to have available. I will probably add some of my larger quilts that have been part of my Curve-pieced collection in the near future.
