Scotty Dogs 2

I made another Scotty Dogs quilt with fabric printed with Scotty Dogs! The border fabric which is a fun tiles print sets off the pieced Scotty dog blocks. I think I have enough of this border fabric to make one more of these quilts after this one. This one measuring 58”x69” is a nice lap sized quilt and would be enjoyed by any Scotty Dog fan.
This quilt is available for sale on eBay,please search for “Scotty Dogs quilt”.

I used Warm n’Natural batting and quilted this in an all over abstract design with black thread. The backing is a red fabric printed all over with Scotty dogs wearing bows.The binding is a black fabric printed all over with little Scotty dogs.

Chrystal Bear

Bear Paw blocks are one of my favorite blocks to make.In this quilt I am show casing them again with an assortment of beautiful cool color batiks. I used a solid white batik for the background to really make the colors pop. This quilt measures 87”x101” and is up for sale on eBay. Please search for “Bear Paw Quilt”.

I had made a similar quilt using an assortment of blue batiks on a white background and that one has already sold.I had all these beautiful batik fabrics and just had to use them!

I used another beautiful batik with a white background and a swirl pattern in blues and purples for the backing,complimenting the front. I hand guided,machine quilted this one in an all over,edge to edge abstract design with white thread.

Happy Baskets

A colorful quilt to chase away the winter chill. Basket quilts are a fun classic design that I don’t make often enough. I chose a very colorful outer border fabric that I also used inside each basket.Set on point seems to be the best way to enjoy these baskets. This lovely lap size quilt measuring 52”x66” is up for sale on eBay. Please search for “Colorful BoHo Basket Quilt”.

I used that colorful floral fabric to help me choose two colors for each basket block,trying not to repeat combinations too closely.

I enjoyed making this quilt! The bright summer colors were fun to work with while in the middle of winter. I machine quilted this with an all over edge to edge abstract floral design with purple thread.

I chose a colorful floral designed fabric for the backing that adds even more fun color to this quilt.This quilt is going to be a cheerful addition to somebody’s quilt collection!

Churn Dash

I’m working with some of my Civil War Reproduction fabrics again,as well as some fabrics in similar colors and designs. This time I’ve chosen a classic block that lends itself nicely to scrappy combinations. I did use an off white fabric printed with mini black flowers as the background in each block to manage all the scrappy colors.This quilt measures 57”x68” a nice throw size.This quilt was sold at a local church fair.

The border fabric has cute little houses in assorted colors on a navy blue background. I surrounded the inner churn dash block with simple strips of color to make a bigger block and add more scrappy colors to the mix.

I used a mini floral print in colors complimenting the front for the backing and hand guided machine quilted in an all over abstract design with a dark blue thread. I like how this one turned out!
