Claire's Glam Clam Quilt

Saturday, August 31, 2019

The layout of Claire's Glam Clam quilt inspired the design of the quilting. I used the low volume clams to create a continuous quilting pattern that hides behind colorful clams. It was so much fun to quilt this and I'm in love with the way it turned out.




Heather's Quilt

Tuesday, March 06, 2018

Heather pieced this amazing large scale quilt!  I loved the idea of taking patterns I would normally use on an heirloom quilt and blow them up in scale.  I really love how it turned out! 






Mary's Quilt

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this quilt!  It was such fun to work on.  Mary's amazing piecing job made this a great candidate for heirloom quilting.








Jane's Quilt

Here is a fantastically pieced sampler quilt from Jane.  There was lots of opportunity for heirloom quilting in the yellow background.  It turned out lovely.

It was such fun to quilt this beautiful quilt made by Dawn.  I love the mix of feathers, crosshatch, and curves.  It turned out so lovely.




Mitzi's Locket Quilt

Sunday, March 20, 2016


Mitzi pieced this amazing quilt as a wedding gift for her cousin.  She used this free locket quilt pattern featured on Fat Quarter Shop.

I wanted to keep the look of the quilt elegant and sophisticated.  I outlined nearly every part of the quilt with 1/4 inch lines to achieve this feel and used what I call 'chubby loops' to fill in the white background.


The squares in the center of the lockets really spoke to me, so I repeated them throughout the quilting.


Burgoyne's Surround

Friday, March 18, 2016

Recently I've been doing a slew of custom quilts.  This quilt kicked it all off.  I had a lot of fun doing.  I wanted to keep the feel of the quilt traditional, but give it a bit of a modern touch as well.


Cindy did a beautiful job piecing this quilt.  She used her low volumes in the background and a pop of color for the lines and circles. I used 70/30 Quilters Dream batting as a base layer and  Dream Wool on the top to make it all pop even more.



On the back Cindy used this beautiful 55" essex linen which gave the quilt a nice weight.  I've had several customers use this lately on their backs and they tell me it's nice and soft after a couple of washes.


Cathy's Picnic Quilt

Tuesday, December 15, 2015

Love this top Cathy put together for her daughters for family outings and picnics!  I kept the feel very geometric, while adding some curves with the loops and feathers.
