Soo Many Quilts...Soo Little Time.....

Keeping busy with all of the quilts that are coming and going.  The guild, the family...yep, it's pretty hectic around here.  Had a couple of really hot days last week and couldn't work at the machine.  My space is over the garage and gets tons of afternoon light...not good when it's 80 outside.  Back to our normal temp range and a little rain for the day, but that's okay it will keep everything just as green as ever.  On to the quilts......

First we have Pat in NH.  What a beautiful quilt this one was!!  I worked on it a couple of months ago and all of the guys in my house went crazy!  It's very modern, very cool, very just "very!".  Loved the blue/greys with just the light touch of the mustard that Pat added as accent to the quilt.  Then she requested circles as the quilting designs...PERFECT...ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!

Karen M in NH...what can I say? Karen's quilts are always the best, perfect in every way. Love the designs of this one. It was a BOM that she did a couple of years ago and now it's headed to some lucky couple as a wedding gift. Fabulous quilt!!!

Karen S had a couple of great quilts that she sent my way.  The first is an adorable baby I Spy quilt.  She told me that she didn't use a pattern just sorta' put it together as she went, and it was much harder than she thought it was going to be.  We decided upon animal tracks as the quilting design and it is cuter than ever.  Her second quilt was for a very special friend, a comfort quilt that Karen put together with her book club.  Each of the ladies had the opportunity to add their own touch.  LOVE the wine fabric that Karen picked as the backing.  We did a very funky quilting design and it was just right for this quilt.  Here's what they looked like.......

Judi K has been busy with the next two quilt.  Purple and oranges with a touch of brown.  The first quilt is one that she finished after purchasing some rulers from Pat Knoechel.  We recently had the opportunity to see Pat when she visited the Northern Lights Quilting Guild.  The quilt is a great way to use up scraps!!  Judi actually made this first quilt second and the second quilt first!  Here's a look....

Last quilt of the day comes from Joan in OH.  Joan found this great little quilt either in a garage sale or at a thrift shop, can't remember which she told me.  Anyway, it's a gift for her father to use in his antique car, just a little something to cover up with if you are in the rumble seat.  how perfect is this quilt?  Vintage fabrics, it had some hand stitching and some machine stitching, but the design was fantastic. 

As usual you can see more of these great quilts at the other blog, don't forget to click on the pics for an extra close look, here's the link....
