Crazy Curves in assorted batiks--quilted with edge-to-edge design and a
few circular designs added to some of the circles for interest
This is a for-fun, everyday quilt I made for my son, who is a die-hard music fan. He also
plays a dynamite guitar. The quilt is made with commercial fabrics, including the central
Beatles fabric. The center panel is done free form and the surrounding Beatles-themed
fabric borders are quilted with an edge-to-edge design by Sweet Dreams Studios called
"Peace." You can see the edge-to-edge design on the back (the black photo below).
A quilt for a baby boy inspired by a recent issue of Quick Quilts. The focus fabric seen
on the back has fire trucks was well as stars and hearts, a theme that is continued in
the quilt motifs selected. The four patch blocks are quilted with hearts, while the car,
truck, and airplane blocks are free-handed with the exception of some echoing done
with the Statler. The large, black outer border is quilted with King Tut Joseph's Coat
using a star motif.
This is for my great-neice who is graduating from FSU with her MBA. I hope she doesn't
see this before I can get it to her! I used Sweet Dreams Studio's "Go Noles" design and
Superior Thread's Brights in Gold.
The quilt below was a custom quilt commissioned by a customer who is a horsewoman.
The motifs were chosen to represent the marriage of the land and the animals as well as
her love of horses. The horse panels were the inspiration for the quilt and the fabrics
chosen flowed from the colors within them. Quilting Motifs include One Song Needle Arts'
"Majestic Pines" and Kimberlee Diamond's tree fill motif. A great deal of free hand
quilting was used in the horse panels. Pillow shams were also made to complete the
bedding.
