This is another set of quilts that Sharon made as a gift. She chose two different pantos for quilting, one is called “Ginger Flower”, the other one “Butterfly Tango”. I imagine two little girls are very happy with their new pink quilts.
This is another quilt made by the talented Sharon. I love all the pink and how the colours go from light to dark. The pantograph Sharon chose is called “Strawberry Fields”.
This is another quilt that Bonnie made. When she dropped it off, she knew she wanted the pantograph “Rose Garden” for this project. Usually we let the quilt/fabrics/pattern inspire the quilting choices but in this case it was the recipient’s name that gave Bonnie the idea of this quilting design.
Here is another excellent idea for using up scraps if you are like me and prefer a solid colour background behind all your scraps. This quilt was made by Bonnie. The blocks are fairly easy to put together, and there are lots of setting options. Bonnie’s quilt reminds me of birds in a flight formation, following each other. The pantograph she chose for her project is called “Ginger Flower”.
This lovely blue and cream log cabin quilt was made by Carol as a gift for her son. We used the fabrics in her quilt as inspiration for the quilting pattern, and Carol chose “Wild Wind”, a swirly pattern, for her project.
Ginger made not just one, but two quilts using the pattern “Marcie’s Maze”. It was designed for layer cakes but I can also see a scrappy variation of the pattern that would look nice. All those straight piecing lines and the polka dots and circular flower shapes in the fabrics made us choose “Champagne Bubbles” as the quilting design for Ginger’s quilts.
This spectacular black and white log cabin quilt was made by Sandra. Doesn’t it look just fabulous? She chose the design “Diagonal Plaid Bias Cut” for her quilt, it picks up the secondary design created by the block setting and adds great texture.
These two almost identical quilts were made by Peggy. She used panels and surrounded them with other heavy machinery fabrics. I don’t have any construction-themed pantographs, so we settled on an abstract pattern instead and went with “Diagonal Plaid Bias Cut”.
This Southwest-themed outdoorsy quilt was made by Gerry. The fabrics she used show all kinds of animals including bears and elk, so “Deer in the Woods” was an obvious choice for quilting.
Stack-n-Whack is another great technique for those large scale prints that seem too precious to cut into tiny pieces. I personally have never tried it but I sure enjoy looking at the results. This rose quilt was made by Linda, and I like the on point setting and the frames around the blocks in different colours, they look great against the black background. The quilting pattern Linda chose is called “Ground Cover”.
