Freehand Swirls

Barbara lives on the west coast. Her sister, Sue went to visit her and brought this quilt back. I completed it before she came to visit her sister in Michigan. I love the colors in this quilt. Batiks!! I quilted it with an overall freehand swirl. Great job, Barbara! Sorry it took me a bit to post your quilt's pictures, I had technical difficulties with my camera, good thing Marcia took some photos for the blog, too.

Freehand feathers with a smokey feel. I think that the back is as great as the front!

Feathers!

Here is a kit my Mom bought for me. This is my first attempt at free hand feathers. I really like how this turned out. I don't know why I waited so long to try this stitch.  I used a dense echoing circles on the outer border. I really enjoyed this project.

A sweet basket of flowers!

Delores made a sweet embroidered basket quilt. Embroidery of this caliber is just not seen often and it is a pleasure to work on this quilt. I love how the quilting just floats around these baskets.

Alison's Quilt

Here is a lovely quilt that Alison made. I love the colors and it has a leaf and floral pattern. Lovely wedding quilt!

Alice's Quilt

Alice made a beautiful quilt for a birthday present. The raw edged applique flowers are so pretty. They have such dimension already and they will have even more after washing!!

Marcia quilted this with a loop and leaf pattern. This is an overall freehand pattern. Click on the pictures to see the details, Nice job ladies!

Baby Quilt

This adorable baby quilt was made by Barb. It has the best John Deere fabric ever! It is the pink squares! The dark brown squares are Minkee and this was my first time to quilt on that type of fabric. It quilted up without any problems.
