Karyl's Kaffe Fassett Quilt

Karyl made this amazing quilt with Kaffe Fassett fabrics and one of his patterns. There are so many different fabrics used that you cannot even count them. There are also so many different flowers that I decided to put a few more on the quilt so I used the quilting pattern called Retro Flowers and now there are a zillion flowers on the quilt! A breathtaking quilt!
Another view of the blocks.

Figuring out what color of thread was a challenge on this quilt until I came upon Bermuda Blue and it just screamed "USE ME" and so I did.......
Back of the quilt which forms another great quilt!



Karyl's French General Rouenneries Quilts

This is the first of 2 quilts made with these great fabrics.
Several different flowers cover this quilt.

I chose this Peonies pano because it was similar to the flowers in the border fabrics.

This is the backing of the quilt with the Peonies designs. The thread on this is also the Ficelle color.

Karyl made this quilt out of French General's Rouenneries collection of fabric and the pattern used for quilting was a special design. I scanned the fabric showing the birds and dragonflies and foliage to a designer and she digitized a pattern of foliage and birds to enhance the designs of the quilt. Wonderful fabric line, wonderful quilt!

The backing on the quilt.
The thread used on this quilt was the color Ficelle, a grayish white thread.

Karyl's Bright Fish Quilt

Karyl made this delightful quilt and can't you just imagine it draped over the back of the couch or covering a child's bed? A wonderful cheerful quilt! And if you think this one is bright, just wait for the next one that I'm almost done quilting!
The quilt pattern is called Jacobean Pano and it is flowers and swirls.

Little fish swim all over this bright quilt!

The quilt was quilted with Praline Pink thread.
The pictures below are of the backing of this quilt. With all this piecing, she has a 2 for 1 quilt!










Janice's Log Cabin Quilt

Janice has made another large lovely quilt that suggests a soft summer quilt. Great job, Janice!
Janice chose the quilting pattern called Littleleaves and Baccarat Green thread.

Peach and green make up with feminine quilt. Janice buys the quilt kits pre-cut so all she has to do is sew the pieces together, a quick and easy on the hands way of doing it!

Vickie and Lucille's Collaboration

This magnificent quilt was pieced by Lucille (the blocks) and set by Vickie, her daughter. Now that's a quick(?) way of getting a quilt done!
The quilt pattern used is Swirling Chestnuts, a very favorite one of mine that is so appealing for an overall design. The thread is Olive Brown.

Here are her triangle borders used in the on point setting.
The quilt name is Scrap Happy.

This nice olive green backing really contrasted nicely with the Olive Brown thread.
