Carla's Tropical Lime Green and Purple

Carla made this pretty little wall hanging and when I saw it, I knew just what design I wanted to use.

Whirlygig with Lime Green Omni thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting

Some closeups to see how awesome the stitching looks

And the back, which is very pretty fabric, but the quilting kind of gets lost.

Sue's 2nd Batik Quilt

I think this quilt is made using the same blocks as this one. The arrangement is just different. As I was quilting it, I thought it looked a bit jumbled. Being a graphic designer, I like everything neat and aligned, but now that it's finished and I see the whole thing, I rather like it.

I used Lava Tiki thread and love how it looks. I don't use much Lave, but a friend used some on a quilt and showed a picture on Facebook the other day. It was a light bulb moment for me as I had just loaded this quilt.

She provided the batting and the panto is Whirligig. Some more close-ups of the thread:

JoAnn's Tessellating Quilt

I'm not sure of the name of this one, but I believe it's a tessellating pattern.

She asked for an edge-to-edge and I chose Whirlygig. Dan thought it should have something with leaves, but I usually only put leaves on fall-ish quilts. I used Omni light tan thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting.

Hope she likes it!

Lots of Labor this Weekend

After I finished with Margaret's quilt, I loaded one from Marissa.

Since I had Popcorn on the table, that's what I used for this one also. Omni Spearmint thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting.

And the back:

Next up was Lois's floral quilt. It's not real big, but very busy.

I used Whirlygig for the quilting, Permacore white thread and Hobbs 80/20 bleached batting.

Here's a better view of the quilting:
