Barb’s Christmas Album
To help you get in the holiday spirit, here is Barb S’ lovely hand appliqued quilt! It was quilted last March just as our world was grinding to a halt. Mostly freehand quilting of a design called crackle, some rulerwork for the crosshatch sections and a few holly digital designs. The border has outlined applique. Superior SoFine 50wt thread in white, Hobbs bleached 80/20 batting.
Mary Jane’s Dear Jane
Mary Jane’s Dear Jane was quite an adventure! Engrossing and challenging, in the scale of the quilting and the sheer number of ideas needed for that many small (4.5 inch) blocks! Hobbs 80/20 batting, Glide 60 wt in Military Gold on top, SoFine in Ginger in the bobbin. The feather border is digital design by Three Sisters Fabrics. There are two other digital designs in a couple of blocks but mostly freehand.
Two for Betsy
Two beauties I have done for Betsy over the last year and didn’t get posted. Freehand, ruler work, or automated by me. A fun modern quilt with graffiti quilting in Dark Gray Omni and colors matching the outside color of fabric so the thread shows most in the center.



And a fun Christmas quilt. Freehand quilting with various colors thread as needed.
