There's one in every crowd
Name of Maker: Becky1P
There's one in every crowd - I got interested in curved piecing and wanted to design something that incorporated that. I love the curved border & the flying geese.

Dancing Neutrinos - Friendship Group Challange. We each designed our own setting for the batik sqaure in a square blocks. I quilted several large concentric circles and filled in with shadow quilting.
Quilt for James
Name of Maker: Copa55
Quilt for James - I made this quilt for my great nephew James, who is 5 years old. I just used a simple 4 patch block, with a border around each block, then joined it all together. Its a very simple design, but I think the bright colours and novelty prints I used look quite good together.
Ruffled Roses
Name of Maker: Jane Harris
Ruffled Roses - This pattern was offered as a block of the month by The Quilt Show. I bought the [pattern, I think in February of 2011 but did not get a start on it until August of that year. I finally finished it in March of 2012 just before my husband had a heart attack. It was the most challenging pattern I have attempted in my 17 years of quilting. The professional long arm quilter, Pam did a magnificent job on the quilting. It is true, "quilting makes the quilt" I will enter it in my guild show in October.
Nathan & Taylor's Wedding Quilt
Name of Maker: Barbara Houck
Nathan & Taylor's Wedding Quilt
Molly's Coffin Star
Name of Maker: Candy Prudhomme
Molly's Coffin Star - This quilt was made for my sister. She is the family geneologist and loves Halloween, so I used up most of my Halloween stash, which included 1-1/2 inch strips left from another project (braided tablerunners). I tried to research the block, but came up with nothing for the Coffin Star, which doesn't look like a star at all. The free-motion quilting includes pumpkins, bats, ghosts, monsters, spiders and webs with meandering in the 16-patches. The border fabric includes part of the witches scene from MacBeth (double, bubble, toil and trouble). See my personal photos for a detail of the quilting.
Sporty UK Sue
Name of Maker: Anne-Marie Tye
Sporty UK Sue - Started in Show and Tell. Sue is playing: Ulster camogie, Wales rugby, Scotland hammer throwing and England Cricket. The hardest part was finding an emblem acceptable to both Ulster communities.
My Blue Heaven

My Blue Heaven - Only 4 repeated blue fabrics and changed a few blocks because I don't applique (yet). And now I have to quilt it.

Kaffe and Millie's Garden

Easy Curves
Name of Maker: Shirley Atkins
Easy Curves - I took a class with Laurie Shifrin who has authored several books on making quilts with batiks. I love batiks but I took this class because Laurie offered some exciting non-batiks and I also wanted to make a quilt with curves. I thought it would be a tremendous challenge because flanges are included on each of the curves. Laurie's applique techniques and tips throughout the class made the project go together easily and accurately.
