Customer quilts..................


Another busy week in the Quiltme studio. I have a very special quilt to show, but that will have to be for another post as the quilt is now winding it's way back.
First is the quilt Lois made for her friends one year old daughter. Lois is fondly known as 'the cat lady'............here's why.............




I have quilted several quilts for Lois & most feature cats. Lois asked for simple quilting. So a looping stipple on the border , curling ribbon & plenty of ditch stitching.


Look at this cute little face!
Lois found the perfect fabric for the backing...................................



Next up is Jenny's wall hanging. Purchased as a BOM from The Country Yard a couple of years ago.

A combination of stitchery, applique, piecing & English paper piecing. Designed by Helen Stubbings of Hugs and Kisses.





Until next time......................................................

  1. Hi Leeanne ... yes I find cat things very popular in the Cottage also, lots of people love them. I especially love the table runner, I love Helen Stubbings patterns. The fabrics & design on that one is stunning & I adore how you have quilted it. Happy weekend to you :-)

  10. I love the cattie quilt, but the wallhanging I love most. It looks like an embroidery sampler. I never saw this pattern before. And as always, very beautiful quilting!

    Have a lovely day, Cisca
