Pat and Quilt collection
a little bit of This and That

Tuesday, June 9, 2015

this pillow is tsukineko ink, the blue around the feathers, done like a stencel, the black is hand drawn zentangles. I taught a class in crayola's and tsukineko ink and fun ways to use it.


This is the "what i call" the pot holder quilt, i made this for my daughter-in-law for Christmas, it's very scrappy and it's a fun quilt, it's made from a bunch of circles.


this is a paint chip challenge--see the paint chips on the right, the whole challenge had to be kept a secret until our Christmas party. The green lady is my friend Gloria, me in the middle and my friend Julie on the right. the colors had to match the paint chips.


full size quilt, i wond the star blocks in a drawing about 8 years ago and finally got it finished, it's very pastel


Kellley's graduation quilt. Kelley's dad was my cousin--he was killed in a car accident 3 years ago, i used his shirt (green) and put many pictures of the family on it, she likes camo fabric so that is the background and the blocks are t shirs and pc'd blocks depicting things from school.


more red work---this is a 4 patch that is cut up and ends up looking like this, was a fun project too queen size


a bed runner???? but at my house it will be a table runner, another class i took, sometimes i take the class that so there will be enough students to make the class, it's an easy project.


is is a UFO---embroidered flowers in baskets, i think it needs hand quilting so it may be a while before i get to it as my quilt frame is full right now


i taught a class in crayola's and embroidery, the tea pot was my subject and the purse was not a fun project, i really don't like making things like that, but it turned out pretty cute


We get a fat quarter at Christmas and need to have it done by July 4th for our quilt show. the Challenge fabric is the aqua and pink boarder, can't be any bigger than a fat quarter finished.


Wool applique--a class we had in our guild, the kit cost $30 which i thought was a lot as it only included the little panel, i used a retired wool jacket for the red on the front and the back too. it will be a Christmas gift


2014 Country Treads block of the month---we are doing a 2015 quilt now they are so fun to make. Check it out Country Threads in Iowa


my redwork baby quilts to be put away until I'm a great grandma---no hurry as my oldest granddaughter is just now 18---one good thing--quilts keep.
