I just loved quilting this quilt for Beth. On this quilt I had fun with the applique, I have always stayed away from quilting inside appliques, but I am getting more comfortable with it now and it really adds to the quilt. One quilt done, one to go, or maybe I could give myself a break? I would feel completely guilty.

I don't have to tell you that there is a lot going on with this quilt. It's a super fun quilt done by Emily and I had a lot of fun quilting it. I feel bad I haven't blogged about it until now, but you know, life is crazy and I am trying to get a lot done before Christmas so I can have a little bit of a holiday break.












There is so much going on and these picture only show a portion of the quilting...

Amongst all the hubbub of last week, (thanks for the well wishes, Micah is doing fine) I did manage to get a couple quilts done. This particular quilt is by far my favorite quilt. I had a really hard time giving this one up today. I just love it. I did small pebbling in the main focus blocks and on the edges I did the shadowing.

I just had fun with feathering on this quilt, this quilt needed something beautiful and flowwy, feathers are perfect for that.


I used silver Highlight thread from Superior...

So last week we can call it a bust because Clint's family was here (we had a wonderful time) but I didn't get much done. This quilt is another Emily quilt. I put it on the frames last week and finished it last night. That will tell you how much I didn't get done last week. But I loved this one, it's a lot like her "napkin" but there was more feathering in this quilt and it was a lot bigger.

I have so much fun doing Emily's quilts or "napkins" she lovingly calls them. This one was only 22 inches squares and I put a lot of quilting into it. What I love about Emily's quilts is that they are not your traditional quilts and she tells me to "do your thing" when it comes to the quilting. It allows me to be creative and just have fun, which means I usually quilt every last section of the...
