Frozen Quilt

It must be a Winter again. My younger one, Yasmin, is a big Frozen fan, so she got Elsa and Anna quilt for her Birthday. I found all the fabrics at the Pacific Fabrics in SODO and it was a big hit. I am working on a few other adaptations, because I found Olaf fabric at Joanns. I put Breath of God pattern on it in white and I think it came out simple, but elegant. And the most important, customer was very satisfied:)

Jenna's T-shirt quilt

What a wonderful idea to turn all your memories into a beautiful and practical gift for yourself. Jenna brought me 20 t-shirts from her past and left with a lovely quilt. I used black for sashing and polyfil for top thread. Reduce, reuse and recycle at its best:)

Baby girl quilt

I had a cute quilt top for sometime now. And of course it is a baby season!!! So my husband decided that he really likes to give a quilt to his friend (his baby girl actually). Did I mention that he decided 3 days before he left for a project?! So 72 hours later, quilt it quilted, bound and I even had 2 hours of sleep before giving my husband a ride to the airport. Some people call it crazy, I call it love for quilting:) Anyway, lesson learned: never let your husband take pictures for the blog.

Christie's quilt

I made a quilt for my dear friend Christie. She is doing so much for my family and I think my kids would rather stay at her place then home. I used "Soda Pop" pattern in browns and turquoise. Large Loop-D-Loops for quilting. Looking back, I think I like this pattern in the monochromatic interpretation.

Sharon's quilts and table runners

Finally Summer is here. In a quilter's world it is a season when some time I think I forget the meaning of word "quilting". The weather is nice and the Christmas is too far away.., My friend Sharon was super nice and made an effort to put couple of tops together to keep me sane. Both of the tops are BOMs and very subtle. I used variegated auburn on the orange quilt and brown on the "Founding Fathers" quilt. I liked the way orange quilt is set. The asymmetrical setting disguises the fact that blocks are slightly different in size. It all worked together at the end, all quilted, bound and ready to go:)

Blue quilt by Melanie

Melanie envisioned a quilt for her daughter graduation, but was running short on time. I helped her to put together a twin sized quilt that has something old (cut outs of the baby blanket), something new (fabrics with tennis rackets) and something blue (pretty much the rest of the quilt). I doctored a pattern from the magazine and came up with a twin quilt made from 20 fat quarters. For the long arm I used "star" pattern to connect that star pieces from the crib size quilt. It will make a sure hit in the dorm.

American Girl quilt

After visiting American Girl store I was very inspired to make my own American Girl quilt. Miriam picked up a fabric and the design, and we put it together in the matter of hours. I was very thrilled with the result. I quilted "busy bees" pattern in pink. I think I might be making a matching twin size quilt:)
