We are in the grey

First up to share is Jill's fun Hexagon quilt. Jill had very clear idea's about how she wanted this quilt quilted. Made for a friend in Canada, Jill wanted the iconic Maple leaf quilted on the tone-on-tone hexagon's, then we both decided to just keep the straight lines on the rest of the hexagon's, too many designs would make an already reasonably busy quilt, well too busy.

Straight lines & lots of ditch stitching, using Madeira poly neon threads over wool/poly batting.

For the pieced border I ditch stitched & quilted some stipple & more straight lines to keep that continuity. Thank you Jill, I hope your special friend loves her quilt.

Next a quilt designed by Emily Cier from a book compiled by Susanne Woods in the form of a book called "Modern Blocks".

 Kerryn made this quilt at retreat for her daughter to snuggle under. With a minky blanket for the backing I am sure she will snuggle under it! It did cause me a few problems as the minky blanket had quite a stretch in one direction. Anyhow you can see I quilted 'very organic' straight lines on the grey, as well as crossing over in random places & a mix of quilting designs on the feature fabrics, pebbles, paisley, a boxy maze & stipple.

Here you go you back lovers! I remembered to take a shot or two of the back.

Time to end this post as I have more to show you but can't, I have a few gifts I have made plus two more customer quilts, but I will have to wait & so will you!!
The following is worth contemplation, don't you think??

Until next time friends & 'stalkers', take care & keep your home fires burning by making something pretty.

one of those weeks.......................!!!!!

Wow so much can happen in one week, can't it? Well it feels like it has been one of those weeks.
Our sweet big boy Brian has been to the vet many times this week. He has had a nasty injury to his tail, looks like a door slammed on his tail. The vets tried to save his tail, but this morning the they told me his tail couldn't be saved, too much nerve damage. I'm sure he is going to be fine, but I feel for this this proud cat.

On to quilty matters.........................

Ngaire's granddaughter has been at her stash again! look what she came up with.......................































I quilted "lion, Zebra, Elephant, Giraffe on the borders, orange peels on the squares, a leafy vine on some of the sashings, accented the panel blocks.









The next quilt was for Miranda, she made this one for her father. Using some Minkie for the large blocks & musical fabrics & other fabrics for the four patch blocks, has resulted in a very simple quilt. Miranda wanted me to quilt it as I did on the last one she commissioned me to do....































See you next time!

Cot quilts

two cot panels quilted the same, one with a lofty poly batting, the other with cotton batting and minky  for the backing.

The one with the minky backing, you can't tell from the photo, but the minky is the most prettiest soft pink.....and it IS very soft!
