Hello blog-lovers, it's me again with more customer quilts.
Ngaire is part of a lively little group called "Marsden Material Girls". The group has planned a non profit event next year called " The Festival of Fibers". Part of their fund raising efforts are to raffle a couple of quilts.
Ngaire asked me if I could please quilt both raffle quilts.
First is a fun quilt designed by Sarah Fielke from her book
Hand Quilted with Love, this design is called: "All That and The Hatter".
I had originally quoted for an all
over quilting design but I was a naughty quilter, I
custom quilted this one!!!! I just couldn't help myself! This quilt just didn't want an all over design it screamed 'Please custom quilt me'......................what is a quilter to do?
Thankfully Ngaire was delighted!!! Trust is a winning recipe for our working relationship. Teacups and teapots need swirly steam!
The borders were treated with tea and coffee themed words, eg;
Mocha, green tea, cappuccino etc.
I enjoyed reading the backing fabric, singles wanted adds!
AND...............................
The backing...............................
It would be a perfect quilt hanging in a cafe!
Next is a cheery applique/strip quilt. Ngaire asked for an all
over quilting design, this time I complied!
Ngaire will be adding YoYo's and buttons to the middle of the flowers.
Do you agree with me, these are two lovely quilts to raffle off.
On a personal note I have my daughters 21st birthday quilt to share with you all.
She loved this quilt she saw on Pinterest (sorry there were no credits listed to the maker and designer to show you)
This is my interpretation.................................
I was unable to find exactly the same fabrics, but I think it has turned out nicely.
Here you can see the large flower/swirl inspired from Judi Marsden's tutorial on Youtube , teamed with a leafy border treatment.
And lastly because this is my blog, I decided to add a photo of the quilt and the two quilted pillowslips on my bed!
