Flannel Quillows
Name of Maker: kimandmush
Flannel Quillows - My girlfriend asked me to make her flannel quillows for her grandchildren. Stuffing flannel into a flannel pocket (!?!) Woof! It's a tough one. They are soft, full of heart quilting, and they are now loved.
Red and White Christmas Quilt
Name of Maker: Virginia Reader
Red and White Christmas Quilt - This quilt is comprised of hundreds of half square triangle blocks, made with Thangles. I finished piecing it at my quilt guild's annual retreat. I love it!
Ups & Downs of Living in Africa
Name of Maker: Jen Hinwood
Ups & Downs of Living in Africa - This was good practice for sewing triangles together and showcased some African fabrics. It was completely random with the pieces pulled from a paper bag and sewn together.
Dragonflies
Name of Maker: Kay Ahr
Dragonflies - I joined Pat Sloan's Round Robin Swap (Yahoo) Group. This one is a DIY - Do It Yourself Round Robin. The center is raw-edge applique with a machine blanket stitch.
The Bubblegum Quilt
Name of Maker: Janet Henshaw
The Bubblegum Quilt - I took my first class on machine applique, using a block from the Rose sampler book. That was all I needed-I continued and made my very first Quilt. Machine appliqued and since I had just bought my first Bernina sewing machine, I machine quilted it. Love my Bernina
First Fun with Embellishments
Name of Maker: Virginia Reader
First Fun with Embellishments - Our quilt guild had a workshop on free form quilting with embellishments -- this was my first try at anything without a pattern.
Flower Basket wall hanging
Name of Maker: kimandmush
Flower Basket wall hanging - I saw this in one of my quilting magazines and thought it was beautiful I never know what to give my step-mom as a gift. This wall hanging was perfect. Wish I could remember which magazine I got it from. I would like to make it again.
Om

Om

Name of Maker: 13roses
Om - My husband and his family are from India. They celebrate all our American holidays with decorations, trees etc. They also celebrate the Indian holidays and I wanted my neice and her children to have something special, yet something American to decorate the house during our Indian holidays. This small quilt fit the bill.
Baby No Name
Name of Maker: kimandmush
Baby No Name - I took left over pieces of baby flannels, cut approximately 4" blocks and sewed them together. I met this young woman while in hand therapy who's family was not there for her. She and her husband were expecting their first child and were basically alone. I wanted to show her that people do care and God loves them, so I made her a flannel quilt for her yet to be born baby. I pray they are all healthy and happy.
African Tapestry
Name of Maker: Jen Hinwood
African Tapestry - My husband lives in Mozambique and needed some color for his walls - seemed like a good excuse for a quilt. The embellishments are difficult to spot, just like real animals.
Cows at Murud
Name of Maker: 13roses, Jacqui Sue, Barbara, Julie, Joan, Jackie
Cows at Murud - After seeing an episode of Simply Quilts on how to make a fractured quilt, some of us decided to give it a try. I choose a pen and ink sketch I'd done while in India for my design. Six of us each got a slice to make. We worked without seeing what the other was doing. I then peiced and quilted it. I was totally blown away with what my litte pen sketch grew up to be.
Colorful Squares
Name of Maker: Vicki Fridle
Colorful Squares - I saw a Simply Quilts program where this quilt pattern was demonstrated. It "looked" easy to make so I decided to make it using flannel. However, I did not know then that flannel and bias cuts are prone to stretch. Oh how we learn from our mistakes. Mary Ellis (machine quilter in Sherman, Tx) was able to quilt out most of my "stretching errors" and the quilt came out almost square. However, my niece was happy to receive her warm snuggly quilt.
Happy Jack
Name of Maker: 13roses
Happy Jack - It was coming up to Halloween...and I saw this fabric. Well, you know how it is. One does have to justify those impulse purchases.
Catnip
Name of Maker: Vicki Fridle
Catnip - Again, I saw this quilt on Simply Quilts. I just loved the whimsey. This quilt was made as close to the pattern as possible. I wanted to prove that I could actually follow a pattern. I gave the quilt to my step-daughter for a Christmas present. She is a cat lover, so I couldn't go wrong.
Scrappy Christmas Tree
Name of Maker: Vicki Fridle
Scrappy Christmas Tree - A Christmas wallhanging.
