I LOVE this little wholecloth quilt. I think it was the time to make one, since I love so much playing with thread. So here is a first try. It all started with a good water soluble marker. Everything until now was stitched with the walking foot. At this stage I thought it is lovely, but what if I add more quilting? I washed the piece and took some pictures (just to play … [Read more...]
English paper pieced quilt pattern

The pieces could be finished at this stage... ...but I chose to add another row of bigger triangles. I fused my pieces to some heavyweight interfacing (Decovil) and "quilted" them. I now have two coasters and a little placemat. Of … [Read more...]

Heart quilt patterns
Here are my first quilts of 2016. Heart designs for mini wall hangings, or pillows or a center piece on a table. This is "Happy Heart", done in a multicolor Fossil Fern fabric.

I thought that the simple (but wonderful) design deserves a finishing in style so I added piping to the … [Read more...]
New technique, new quilt, new pattern
I finally finished this quilt top (fusible raw edge applique) I made last summer. I love the different look achieved after quilting. What do you think? It was a pleasure to select the fabrics (Fossil Fern by Benartex) - it looks beautiful even without quilting. When the fusing fun was over, I had to choose the color of thread to use for quilting. Big, big decision! I knew it has to … [Read more...]

New quilt, new technique!
I finally finished one of the two quilt tops I made some time ago. Since I used a new technique, it was a fun project and I was anxious to see it finished. Do you remember the top? At the time I said after quilting it should look significantly different. I wanted to use the design for a quilt with a mosaic effect (like this "Secret Flower Garden" quilt). Then I changed my mind and instead … [Read more...]
