Friday Village


A.K.A - Moda's "Be My Neighbor". The Country Yard  joined in on this 'neighborly' sew along in their own style.


Isn't this a friendly happy quilt? Kerryn asked for custom quilting. I attempted to quilt in a sampler fashion, quilting something a little different in each house. Here it is loaded on my machine reading for the quilting - A.K.A icing or frosting!


The quilt measures 71" x 86" Kerryn supplied the polyester batting and asked for the
Full Quiltmekiwi Binding Service.


Ok now what you stopped by to see, the quilting................................................



This little boat is sailing rough seas!


                                                I used several colours of Glide thread.


               As well as photo's of the thread I took a photo of the back......didn't I do well?!


The finished quilt. Thank you Kerryn. Has anyone else made this quilt? What fabrics did you use?

    Hiya Leeanne, Kerryn sure does make some gorgeous quilts. I always love the fabrics & colours she uses. Love how you have quilted it & love those gorgeous glide thread colours. They look scrummy. Love the house with the little heart in it :-) LoVe everything!

    I love your quilting on this quilt and I think I pinned every picture. I struggle -with the 'how' to quilt-as-you-desire. Certainly hope these inspiring pictures will help when I begin to quilt the next project. Thanks for sharing.

    This looks like such a fun project - and great choice of quilting motifs, a fun way to add a little bit of extra.

    This looks wonderful! You did a fantastic job of enhancing a really great top. When you swap out threads - do you keep the same bobbin thread? (it looks as though you may have, but it's hard to tell in pictures...)
    happy quilting ~ Tracy

    Great job on the photos, Leeanne! But an even better job on the quilting. I was grinning and nodding as I went from house to house, noting the different designs you employed. Love it!

    WOW Leanne that is truly amazing quilting. Then again you always seem to amaze me.
    How long did it take you to quilt the whole quilt for Kerryn?
