Tuesday’s Work

Only one quilt to share with you today! This wool quilt was made by Dotty K, another one for the local doctor! Nothing fancy quilting wise but look at this quilt top!

I had never quilted wool on this scale before but it wasn’t as difficult to quilt as I thought it might be. I was worried about it wanting to stretch and move, and it did but not enough to cause any problems. It does not have anything fancy quilting wise. A swirl outer border and a leaf inner border. The main body of the quilt has a pretty large stipple, this was to help go around some rather bulky areas that the foot of the machine wanted to catch on. I think Dr. K will love it!

Tonight I was asked to be a speaker at a good friends sewing class/group. I gave them some quilting tips & Suggestions. We talked about batting do’s and don’ts and the different fiber types on the market today. I figure if they can take just one think I said and use it to help them improve on there quilting, then it was a good night!

Well I need to go get some sleep. I have another quilt made by Dotty to get done tomorrow! Stay tuned for some more photos!

This is another quilt by Geri T. A cute Scrappy Basket Quilt. Some simple continuous curves in the background of the flying geese and the basket background, a stipple in the background of the baskets blocks, and last but not least some jelly feathers in the filler triangles. the quilting shows up much better on the back of the quilt!

 

And a Snail’s Trail made by Vivian H. I quilted a double ribbon in the sashing and kept with the motion of the snail trail block with some swirls
