Sarah's North Dakota Lap Robe

Wow, these fabrics are so nice! Sarah has pieced this quilt with taupes that have acorns, leaves and all botanical things going on and these taupes, by the way, are Japanese Diawabo fabrics...in case anyone asks! :)

Acorn Leaves Panto was the quilting pattern used.

Fine Wine was the thread used. Double click on these pictures to see the awesome prints!

The backing fabric which is so cool!

Sarah's Li'L Dudes Quilt

Sarah pieced this delightful cowboy quilt and it really took me back to the days of Roy Rogers and Dale  Evans! Complete with cowboy boots, horses and all that is related! So cute!

Cowboy Pano 003  was the quilting pattern used.

Coronado was the thread used.

I love this border fabric!


Very nice!

The backing fabric.

Karyl's Ice Cream Sandwiches Quilt

Did I tell you that Karyl likes to piece quilts with a lot of pieces? This one has so many prints in it, I would not even guess how many!


Deb's Feathers was the quilting pattern used.

Coronado thread was used.


WOW again.

Then of course it would not be complete unless there was another quilt on the back!

Two for one!


This really shows the quilting pattern.

Karyl's Jo's Little Women Quilt


Karyl put this small quilt together with a great collection of Jo Morton fabrics. She made it in the Jo's Little Women Club. Very cute!

Lisa's Lace was the pattern she chose for the quilting.

The great border fabric!

Green Gold thread was used.

The backing fabric.

Karyl's Painter's Pallette Quilt

Karyl loves piecing quilts and the more pieces the merrier. This is a Laundry Basket Quilt pattern by Edyta Sitar  and her patterns are always a whole lot of piecing as you can see! But Karyl makes it look easy!

Simple feather meandering was the quilting pattern used on the quilt.

Camel thread was used.

If you like making 9 patches, this pattern is for you!

Nicely done!


The luscious backing fabric!


Felicity's Quilt


Jan pieced this quilt together for her granddaughter, Felicity. She likes bright colors and that is what she is getting with this quilt!


Vine Green thread was used to quilt it.

The borders really show the quilting pattern.


Cracker Jack Pano 001 was the quilting pattern used.

Her granddaughter will love this quilt!

Nicely done!

The gorgeous backing fabric!

Quilting an Old Log Cabin Quilt

I found this log cabin quilt at a small antique shop and bought it for a song. I decided to do an all over design as the quality of the fabrics wasn't the best. But I thought it worked out well!

I used Sticky Buns, a good one to flatten the quilt.

I used Cranberry thread to sort of kick it up a notch.

Until I quilted it, I did not see the lights and dark rows which go across the quilt.

The large center reds are a bit of a change in pattern style. And there is a lot of the white and black big check fabric, very interesting.

The backing fabrics.

Brooke's Funfetti First Quilt!

Here is a colorful, lively quilt! It is Brooke's first quilt and with a little help from her mom, Colleen, it came out just perfect!
Very nice job!

It was quite a decision for the choice of thread color, but Brooke ended up choosing Keywest Lime for the thread and it was a very good choice!

Fandangle was the quilting pattern that she chose.



Great job!

The batik backing fabric.
