Last quilt from 2017 and Cat's two delightful scrappy quilts

 Until today, an opportunity hadn't presented it's self to Stephanie for her to collect her Log Cabin quilt that I had quilted at the end of last year.
Made to gift to a male in the family, it's perfect.

Stephanie asked of my edge to edge woodgrain quilting. I used Fantastico thread by Superior Threads in the colour "Pheasant". Stephanie chose polyester batting a nice grey swirl wide backing fabric from my selection of batting & wide backing fabrics.

Look at those eyes!

                        The quilt measures 49"x 60". Stephanie has a deep grey for the binding.

Next up, but from THIS years quilting pile are two of Cat's creations. First is her Halloween Scrap Vomit quilt. I'm sure you have seen these quilts doing the rounds, I have made one and have another to the 'nearly finished' stage.

Cat asked for cotton batting and she supplied a pieced backing. The quilt measures 68" square, Cat chose "Gossamer" for the E2E quilting and I used Glide thread in the colour "Lava".

Last but not least is Cat's Scrap Happy Rails quilt. Cat chose cotton batting again and this time went with one of my wide backing fabrics. E2E quilting "Turbulence" and Fantastico thread in the colour "Giggles".

                  Measuring 71" square this makes for a good sized quilt. See the pretty backing?

             Thank you Stephanie and Cat for letting me quilt for you, we work great as a team!

Birthdays, Charity and a special day.....

The following photo's are a quilt I made for my niece who is turning 21 in a few weeks. I made this quilt as leader and ender of a few months. My original inspiration came from Julie  when she was doing a 'string -A -long' that made me get a move on, so thank you Julie!
I used fabric foundations and all my scrappy strips. The setting was from an old book called :'Scrap Quilt' -strips and spiderwebs -by Marcia Lasher.
I made a scrappy backing and had fun doing a quick quilting job.

 Next to show you is a charity quilt I have recently finished quilting for the Round Robin group I belong to. At the beginning of the year we decided to make a quilt to give away to charity. Rather than make a block I volunteered to quilt the finished top, someone else put the blocks together and everyone else made a block and if you pop over here you will see some of us sewing the binding down.
As a group we have decided to donate the quilt to Project Promise it is a local organisation. We will have this quilt plus another on display and for sale at The Country Yard's Annual Exhibtion  this Saturday.

Next is a wee peep of something I have just finished and will be on show this Saturday also.......
