Kim's Christmas Quilt



I LOVE this quilt. She did such a nice job on the buttonhole applique and the colors are just perfect. Kim made this quilt for her daughter who is expecting and she's hoping to help decorate her house before December 1st, which is when they think she might have the baby.



Just a meander is what she wanted and you know me, I just love a meander. I seriously think I could do it with my eyes closed. I'll have to try that sometime!

Janet's Quilt for Christmas


This quilt has been hanging in my studio for months and it came with a backing that was a couple feet too short. So, I've been waiting on Janet to bring me a new backing. I think she may have briefly forgotten about it, but I didn't. I quilted it and put the binding on for her for Christmas. She was quite surprised.





I used Quilters dream poly batting, So Fine white on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin, continuous curves and loopy things in the blocks and I'm not sure what the white square designs are called. I drew lines dividing the block into eighths and feathered away. Not perfect by any means, but the muslin was a good practice space for me.
