Ruler Work and Free Motion Quilting

I think I will sketch out a different design for each block. This is going to be FUN!

Later......

Below is the sketch for the first blog and progress on two blocks.




Ruler work and free motion

I think the first block on the quilt will include both ruler work and free motion.  Here is a VERY rough first draft of what I may do.

Ruler Work

I'm going to plan different ruler work designs for each block!

Lynda's Quilt

It's done and it is a BEAUTY!!
Doesn't the back look cool?  As mentioned previously, Lynda's quilt has an ocean theme and I think the backing she chose is PERFECT!!
Bravo Lynda!!

Frivols - Store Sample Day

Today I'm working on a sample for Beginnings Quilt Shop in Hendersonville, NC.

The name of the small quilt I'm working on is Faithful. It's made up of 16 blocks that finish at 5" x 5". It has a scrap-pieced inner border that finishes at 1 1/8" and a pieced outer border the finishes at 1 3/4".   The finished size of the quilt is 25 3/4" by 25 3/4." 



I love minis!!

Lynda's Quilt

It's halfway done and I'm so pleased with the way it is turning out!





Lynda's quilt is next

This beautiful quilt was pieced by one of my weaving buddies.  The rich blues mimic the colors of the ocean which was Lynda's intent.  I'm going to quilt it with whirls and swirls to mimic ocean waves furthering the ocean theme.
