Quilting for Lizzie & Pam

Hello Quilty Friends!

Welcome back, I have photos of three quilts from Pam. 

Pam is busy making quilts for all the residents of her mothers small resthome. 

Also on this post is the commission quilt made for Lizzie's friend due to have a baby.

 This is the second quilt Lizzie had me make. 

Both quilts had a theme of fabrics that are meaningful to the family,

 farming, Harry Potter, Australia etc.

 Lizzie also requested a personalised label.

Quilting for Cherie, Janine & Judith

Hello Quilty Friends!

I have a wonderfully colourful & textured post for you today, if only it was a 'touch screen' then you would surely be rubbing her hands over the two Sue Spargo quilts!

Janine's Flora hand embroidered wool quilt was finished last year but due to Sue Spargo's rules I could not share photo's until the pattern was released to the masses!

You will also see Judith's Chirp quilt, another Sue Spargo design.

But first lets take a look at Cherie's two colourful rail fence quilts made to gift to a boy & one for a girl.

If you make it through all the photos you will be rewarded with a short video.

A recent finish of mine is BIRDS OF AOTEAROA. I purchased the gorgeous Ellen Giggenbach panel then got to rummaging through my stash for suitable coordinating fabrics. I got the quilt top together in fair time but then it hung around waiting for quilting. I sent a request to an American digital designer for a Kowhai border. I was delighted with their design, I think it makes the quilt.

True to form this is another quilt that IS FOR SALE!

Quilting for Morag & Veta

Hello Quilty Friends!

Can you believe its exactly one month today since my last post?

Where has time gone, somewhere, with the odd socks perhaps?

I have several new wide backing fabrics in stock for your convenience.

 These may seem expensive, but if you consider they are 108"wide, that's actually pretty good value, especially considering you can use them in your quilt tops too, lining for bags, great for scrap quilts or load a couple of smaller quilts onto one backing! I have had some people make a purchase to use as clothing as well. Think outside the square, that's the trick! 

Here are just a few, to see more & the prices see my BACKING FABRIC page.

Custom Quilting for Jan

Hello Quilty Friends!

After loads of hours of work Jan now has her quilt back I thought I'd share photos.

Do you want to see???

There was quite a bit of interest from the photos & videos I shared on my social media pages. 

I had planning thoughts & ideas, in the end I just had to get cracking on this pretty quilt!

Jan gave me creative license, which is super helpful I find the ideas can flow freely,

 especially after coffee!
