Even though February was taken up with 21st birthday celebrations, March has been catching up on the customer quilting queue.
Yazmin made 4 small quilts for soon to be born babies in her family and I was able to quilt 2 of these at a time on the one backing. They were all quilted edge to edge with a pattern called Modern Geometry.
Val made these 2 quilts for new grand babies using the Forever Magic fabric range.
They were both quilted allover with Swirls pattern.
Jenny made this quilt for her grandson's first birthday, and each square had simple embroidery. This was custom quilted.
Pat made this quilt, called Ajasai during one of the Mystery retreats in February and this was quilted allover with a pattern called Feathered Flowers.
Jo made 2 quilts from Bonnie Hunter's patterns and they are both great scrap quilts using lots of little pieces. I used an allover pattern called Flower Spray.
Notice the back of Jo's quilt, and how amazing this has been pressed. Such a lot of tiny pieces and the seams all pressed well!!
This is the other Bonnie Hunter quilt made by Jo, which also had many, many pieces and again all pressed so well. This quilt was quilted with the pattern called Popcorn.
Lois made this quilt for a family member, who requested a man's quilt.
This was quilted allover with a pattern that had fish, called Koi.
Kerryn made this Trip around the world quilt, for a friend. It was quilted allover with a pattern called Paisley Feather, as some of the fabric had Paisley.
This quilt was made by Sue, and is Aurora Rose, a Rachelle Denneny pattern. I love the fabrics that Sue has used and the newsprint fabric backgrounds. I did start this quilt back in January and had planned for it to be finished by early February, but plans needed to change and I did not get back to it until very late in February. It's not often that a quilt will be on Max for that many weeks, but finally it was finished and I was very happy.
It really is a bit hard to see that quilting, so you might need to click on the photo and enlarge it.
While I was on a quilting mission I delved into the QFO queue and pinned 4 of those onto Max. I quilt all of these with the same pattern, called Easy Loops, and sometime I load 2 backings together.
While the quilting mojo was in action, I decided to load my Churn Dash quilt. I will need this for Show and Tell soon. I really would have liked to custom quilt this one, but in the interest of time, I decided to quilt an allover pattern, a swirly baptist fan. I thought that finished would be better than still in the queue??
There is another couple of quilts that I have managed to get done, but one of those is a show quilt, so there will be no photos of that one for awhile yet.
As of today, there is no quilt loaded onto Max, but I think that might change next week.
Tomorrow I will be spending time with a friend who is coming to sew, so hopefully I can get some QFO quilts kitted up and some sorting of the scrap drawers might happen??
Be back with a bit more March news soon.
Blessings, From Jude

That is such a lovely range of quilts and fantastic quilting you have done.
I was so worried if I would be one of the people who had terrible seams or problematic ironing of their quilt. I’m so happy with the way they look. Can’t wait to get them.
Amazing work.
You got to work on some beautiful quilts.
What a wonderful array of quilts - and definitely finished is better than in the queue!
So many beautiful quilts Jude and they are beautifully quilted, I agree a finish is better than in the queue and show and tell is getting nearer!!
You and Max have been busy with stunning results.
You have sure been busy & they are all lovely, well made by the ladies & beautifully quilted. Thanks for sharing & take care.
Wow, such a productive time - I'm sure you will have lots of happy clients! Great you were able to quilt some of your own quilts too.
You and Max have been very busy, making up for lost time. Such a nice variety of quilts and designs. I’m looking forward to seeing some of them “in the flesh” soon.
So many beautiful quilts......... Love the churn dash..... Hope it is packed in the car........
