Janelle's Quilt

This quilt was made by Janelle under the tutelage of mentor, Donna. And Janelle is one lucky girl to have Donna as her mentor in making this great quilt! You can tell what Janelle's interest is, as she designed the center of her quilt. Working through the Team Mate program at her local high school, Donna has helped make this quilt  a special project for Janelle. Great team work and a great outcome!

Baseball Fun 006 is the quilting pattern, but we'll just say they are softballs this time, ok?

Sunlight thread was used.

The borders.
The great backing fabric!

Janice's Compass Points Quilt

Here is Janice's latest quilt and it is full of color and a whole lot of piecing! Quite an accomplishment!

Pearl Flower Vine was the quilting pattern used.

Janice loves to make queen size quilts for her family.

Topaz Gold was the thread used.


The borders.


The backing which really shows the quilting.

Carrie's Little Table Runner

Carrie made this cute table runner. It is quilted in Spice Brown thread and a Rosebud quilting pattern was used to replicate the flowers in the fabric used. A bright cheerful runner!

The backing.

Carrie's Advent Tree

This is the Advent Tree that eventually will have small round woolie circles hanging on the branches. Each  numbered circle is turned over and spells out a message when they are all completely turned over. (Like maybe, Merry Christmas?)
Carrie will make it special!

A star goes on the top of the tree and so the quilting pattern used, was Star Sparkles.

The backing. Fox thread was used.

A Quilt for Braeland

Barbara made this wonderful quilt for her granddaughter, Braeland. It is bright and beautiful and check out the border, with the "Blah" on it! Just right for a teenager, right? She will love this quilt, I'm sure!

The borders.

Blue jay thread was used.

Denali B2B was the quilting pattern.


The backing.

Lydia's Quilt

Connie made another similar quilt for Lydia. And she will love it, too! Great size and colors!

Once again, Fandangle was used for the quilting pattern.

This time, quilted in white thread.



I love this bird covered backing!

Debra's Quilt

Connie made this quilt for her daughter, Debra.  She will love to cuddle in with this quilt on a cold winter night! Very nice!

This has been a very popular quilting pattern lately, it's called Fandangle!

A whole lot of charm squares set on point!

Dark Orange was the thread used.

The backing fabric which really shows the quilting.



Betty's Friendship Home Quilt

Betty made this Disappearing 9 patch quilt for the Friendship Home. I am sure whoever receives it will love it!

Goldenrod thread was used.

Sparks was the quilting pattern.

A flannel backing for the quilt.

Andrea's Peeking Blossoms Quilt

OK, to be fair, I named this quilt because I really don't know the name and it appeared to be blossoms peeking out from behind the purple squares. So there you have it! And isn't it nice? Great work, Andrea!

Wind plum thread was used.

Curls In The Garden 001 was the quilting pattern.

I am really convinced that Andrea likes purple!

The backing fabric!

Donna's Aunt Bea's Parlor Quilt



Feast your eyes on this quilt! Donna has embroidered these basket blocks with her very fine precision back stitching and great color choices. I tried raffling this quilt off after I quilted it with only one raffle ticket, that being the one I had, but for some reason Donna did not go along with that idea! Guess I just need to make my own basket quilt! It's on my bucket list! Fantastic quilt, Donna!


Quilted with Dyed Natural thread.

The borders, so many triangles!

All custom quilted with loops and swirls.





The backing fabric.
