Quilt photo update!

I have been talking about uploading quilting photos for awhile now, and here we are almost the last day of February, so it's time!

I do admit that there has not been lots of customer quilting happening lately, but I have been busy working on quilt designs, and cutting fabrics for Mystery retreats. I have more than enough done for next week's retreat, but have 2 more later in the year, so want to be ahead instead of rushing at the last minute like I often am. I have a few other "to do" jobs on my list, as well as a few quilts that have been waiting "patiently" in the wings.

First up is a quilt made by Erica, for a child. Rather cute forest animal fabrics, and it was quilted with an edge to edge leaf pattern.

This banner quilt was also made by Erica, and custom quilted. The binding was a red and white stripe fabric and really finished the quilt nicely.

Kerryn made this simple quilt, which showcases the pretty fabrics, and it was quilted allover with a pattern called Rose Leaves.

Di made this striking quilt, with interesting fabrics. It was quilted allover with square dance.

This Unicorn quilt was also made by Di, for her granddaughter, who just loves unicorns. I am sure she was very happy with this.

Cathie made this quilt, called Sienna in a Mystery retreat last year. When she came for the Aussie Retreat in January, she brought it back for quilting. The allover pattern is called Curling Waves.

Marg made this quilt called Fandango, and wanted Custom quilting on it. I was pretty happy with how this turned out, and so was Marg.

This is another Pick a Case Mystery quilt, and made by Lynda. The quilt was just asking for a nice pattern in the empty squares, and the chains had straight lines through the diagonal.

Jeanne made this Antelope Canyon quilt, in the Garden Delight fabric range. A very pretty quilt, and was quilted allover with a floral pattern.

 Pat made this couch quilt as a wedding gift for friends, and the colours just asked for an allover ripple pattern.

Cheryl is a very prolific quilter, and does lots of hand piecing. This quilt was quilted allover with Rose Leaves as all the octagon fabrics are Roses.

 Another quilt made by Cheryl, that is a Sue Daley pattern. Very soft, pretty colours, although they don't show up as well, because it was late in the day when I took the photos.

That's all for now. There were a few more finished this year, that were shown at the Kaniva exhibition, and of course I blogged about Michele's quilt, called Bee Mindfull. This year, I have tried to find that balance that I have been talking about for quite some time, and even enjoyed reading a book!

Time to get back to the quilt designs and the piles of fabric in front of me. 

Blessings,
