LONDON BLUES BY BECKY SEMEYN

 

This queen size quilt was brought in by my customer, Becky. It was a "Block of the Month", so it took a while to get it finished.

I used YLI "White" cotton thread.

 

The digital quilting design is called "Nemesh's Feather Grande", and is available from Urban Elementz. I love this pattern. It's one of my recent favorites!

Here are a few photos of the quilting process.

 

 Here is Becky with her finished quilt, ready for binding.

The size of this quilt is approximately 96" x 96", and the cost for my services was $165.00, which included a set up fee, digital edge-to-edge quilting, and thread. Becky provided her own batting. The batting I sell is not wide enough - only 90" - so I would not have been able to sell Becky batting. And the quilt was finished and ready to be picked up in only a couple of days!

BUTTERFLY GARDEN BY HEATHER MCCARTHY

 

 

This full size quilt was brought to me by Heather, who made it as a retirement gift for a preschool teacher. The colors of the butterflies are the colors the children in her class learned, and the border fabrics all represent different subjects they studied in preschool.

 

I used YLI "Pastels" cotton thread. The digital quilting design is called "Nouveau Feathers", and it is available from Urban Elementz. I love this design because it adapts itself to different quilts by looking like water, like wind, like smoke, and even like a fox's tail on another quilt made by Heather that had a fox theme!

Here are a few photos of the quilting process.

And here is the finished quilt, after Heather attached the binding.
