Kathleen’s Modern Dresden

DSC_0025

My friend, Kathleen, appliquéd this beautiful Dresden Plate quilt and I was so excited to get to quilt it for her. It measures about 89″ X 106″. The dresden’s are made using Fat Quarters from Art Gallery’s Sweet as Honey Collection and they are hand appliquéd on Essex Linen. She backed it using Cloud 9 Organic Voile. It is pretty sweet all the way around. Kathleen is the reason I am the quilter and the longarm quilter that I am today. She taught me how to quilt and encouraged me to longarm. Thanks kb! Be sure to check out her blog, KB Quilts. You can see all the wonderful things she makes, as well as what she teaches and inspires others to make.

DSC_0032It’s always good to have my 3 helpers on staff when it comes to getting pictures of the beauties I get to quilt. I think they have a pretty good system going.

Cydney’s Metro Rings Quilt

mr1

 Cydney was one of my student for the Metro Rings Quilt Class I taught at The Little General Fabric Boutique. This was the first experience my students had using Sew Kind of Wonderful’s Quick Curve Ruler. Cydney did an outstanding job and I had fun custom quilting it like Jenny, from Sew Kind of Wonderful, quilted hers.
