Back to Customer Quilting

Christmas vacation is over for me :(
It really wasn't a vacation because never stopped sewing/quilting, but Dan went back to work today. I loaded and quilted the first customer quilt of the year.

Phyllis made this cute 70" x 80" quilt and it was one of the flattest quilt tops I've had the pleasure of quilting.

 

 



I chose Turbulence by Apricot Moon Designs for the quilting, white thread and Quilters Dream Poly batting.

Who wouldn't be pleased to own this one?

After I finished quilting this one I tackled my tote of Christmas fabric. It's been a long time since I even looked inside this tote. I sorted and ruler folded the larger pieces.

I pulled out all the smaller than a fat quarter size to cut down to 2.5" strips 5", 2.5" and 2" squares.

Quilts for a good cause

One of my guild members has made about fourteen 52" square quilts to give to her county police officers to keep in their cars. She started this project in memory of those lost in the Sandy Hook Shootings. I have 3 of them to quilt and have done 2 of them.

Popcorn panto on both of these cute scrappy quilts and Quilters dream poly batting.

Look at the wonderful variety of fabrics.
