Peggy's 10-Minute Blocks

Peggy and her co-workers made this beautiful quilt using a 10-minute block pattern. It sure looks like it took them more than 10 minutes per block. Her colors and layout came from Kathy's blog Tamarack Shack.
I quilted it the same as Kathy's quilt and I hope it's OK, since I'm giving her credit for the quilting ideas.

A simple meander in the background, a feather motif in the triangles, and spineless feathers in the border.

Peggy's 1600 Quilt

I think this may be the last of the 1600 quilts that I'm quilting. Peggy and her Pit Crew made this one in lightening speed.

I chose Double Rose Vine as the quilting design, as I think it fits very well with the calico fabrics.
Very pretty calicos!

Peggy's Coloring Quilt

It is the CUTEST baby quilt! She scanned drawings from when her children were young and printed them to use as the center blocks. Isn't that cute?



Peggy made this darling quilt for her grandbaby due in a month. I loaded it on Saturday and finished it up on Sunday morning. Little did I know that her grandson must have known that his quilt was finished, because he made his appearance a month early and she called Sunday afternoon to tell me he had arrived and asked about his quilt. Well, it was finished and she picked it up.



I outlined the colored images, continuous curves in the blocks, and did a wavy crosshatch in the borders.





The back is a cute flannel, which doesn't really show the quilting very well.

Dan's Back and A Baby Quilt

I only worked for an hour this morning and then came home to care for Dan, who has pulled something in his back again. He spent most of Friday through today resting with ice and lots of Advil and Tylenol. He got in to see Dr. Clark this afternoon and is feeling much better. He will still not be able to go to work, but I'll feel ok leaving him for the day tomorrow now that he can walk again.

I did get a chance to load and quilt this lovely quilt made by Peggy and Kathy. I believe it's for a co-worker expecting a baby. Isn't it just cute as can be? I love how the secondary designs come out. Sometimes I see stars and sometimes I see square-in-a-square.
