Ashley's Table Runner - I used scraps including those left from Ashley's graduation quilt and other bright fabrics for a table runner for her new apartment. The graduation quilt is in sight on the back of her sofa. I also made four coasters that were included with the pattern. To say the least, the table runner doesn't show any resemblance to the blue and white snowman prints in the original design. Free motion quilting included several leaf designs.
Amy's Fall Table Runner - Made totally from stash scraps in fall colors to go with my daughter's dining room. I added an extra set of blocks for an extra long table. I quilted the top as advised in the pattern directions and used variegated thread.
Granny's Bonsaii Quilt - I made this quilt for my mum the year before she died. She wanted a quilt with bonsaii in it and I couldn't find a pattern at the time so I adapted a printed pattern. I made up the centre block myself. The tree's leaves are all confetti pieces, sewn down with washable stabiliser. Mum also liked the stack'n wack method (Bethany Reynolds) so I added some blocks in one of the borders. All machine-quilted.
Angel Wings - This was finished the day before professional photos were taken. After Vicki took the photos, I gave the quilt to her for her newborn photography business.
Shrimp Boats on Shem Creek - I used plain fabric to transfer a photo then did the thread painting. I used a small piece of batting, then applied the backing, which I made large enough to wrap to the front of the quilt. I also had a narrow border applied before securing the backi fabric to the front.
Mother's Sue Quilt - Yes . . . it's Sue. Quilt mixes old blocks made by my aunt 40 years ago with new 30's prints. Made for my mother who would rather have something old than new.
Star Light & Star Bright - My friend's daughter was having a baby. Surprise it's twins!! These quilts were featured in Quiltmaker Magazine in the Sew to Speak section.
Papaw Woods Quilt - Made for my father-in-law who is a proud Arkansan. This quilt miraculously survived a house fire that completely burned down my in-laws home in 2006.
Sarah's Quilt - a pink and white quilt - Barbie pinks in shades from light to dark! nine patch and half square triangles and applique flowers round the border.
Given to Sarah on her birthday in March 2011 and now in use on her bed.
Four Seasons From A Train Window - The quilt consists four panels made by the members of the group and is constructed with the full consent of the artist. From left to right the panels are:
Spring by Carla, Summer by me, Autumn by Klaske and Winter by Julie
Each member added something of herself by interpreting a season and by making a panel in her own choice of materials
