30's Baby Quilt

Another 30's Quilt from Joanne!  She makes the most adorable quilts.



Monday, September 10, 2012

Joanne rescued these antique quilt blocks that were left unfinished by someone years ago. The fabrics are 30's and the blocks all hand pieced. She let me quilt it however I wanted so I chose large daiseys to match the happy fabrics. I have to wonder if the person who started the quilt would approve of how I finished it.

Scottie Dogs

My hubby came up with the idea to quilt the Nine Patch blocks using the hearts and doggie bones crossed like an X to resemble a TicTacToe board. He's kind of handy to have around.




This was such a fun little quilt to do.  Enjoyed every minute.

Brandy's Carpenter's Star




I quilted this Carpenter's Star Wall hanging for Brandy.  I quilted a curved crosshatching in a circle around the center.  Love the effect that gives the quilt.

"Pavers"  pieced by Doris Sanders.  I just wanted to add some texture to this simple modern quilt.  I just love how it turned out.

Doris's Glacier Star






My husband's cousin Doris pieced this beautiful Glacier Star and sent it to me for quilting.   Judy Neimeyer quilts are so beautiful and complex in their design.  It was a pleasure to quilt.

Delilah's Churn Dash


I just love the simplicity of this quilt.  The small blocks in between the Churn Dash blocks reminded me of a flower center so I put a feathered flower there.  I used crosshatch and stripes to represent the fabrics used in this sweet quilt.

Antique Butterflies






My customer Layla found these sweet butterfly blocks on Ebay and finished them with a simple 4 patch and a very pretty border.  I took advantage of the empty space in the 4 patch blocks to add some details.

Hockey Anyone?



I am so far behind on posting pictures of my quilting projects here.  Debbie pieced this Hockey quilt and I quilted it last month.  I had fun with this one!

Kitty Cat Quilt


Doris made this really cute Cat Quilt.  I used a Pantograph by Quilters Niche called Cat Pawprints and Fishbones that was just perfect for the fabrics used.  It was such a fun quilt to do.

Dragonflies on the Lake

I just finished quilting this beautiful dragonfly quilt for my husband's cousin.  It was so much fun to quilt.  I got to try out some McTavishing for the first time in the sky portion of the center panel and put in a couple of "ghost" dragonflies.  At the bottom where the blue gets very very dark I quilted water.  The photos don't show too much detail on the borders but I quilted dragonflies buzzing around on the first border and ferns growing up the outside border.  Its the first one I have quilted for Doris, I sure hope she likes it.

Back of quilt...can you see the dragonflies buzzing around

I put a dragonfly wreath in the corners
