Tic Tac Toe & On The Boardwalk


Sara Price from It's Sew Emma designed this darling Tic Tac Toe quilt. 
I machine quilted it for her with an all over swirly pattern. So cute!
The cute fabric featured in this quilt is Mama Said Sew by Sweetwater for Moda fabrics.
Kits for this darling quilt are available at Fat Quarter Shop.
This cute quilt is called On The Boardwalk, it's designed by Kimberly Jolly for It's Sew Emma. I love the simplicity of the pattern and of course that darling Lucy's Crab Shack fabric, yum!!
I also machine quilted this fun quilt.
Kits for Out on the Boardwalk are available at Fat Quarter Shop.
Love how they both turned out!

Completed Hobo Quilt


My Hobo Quilt is done! YAY!
Quilted and bound and all, well, it doesn't have a label but for now we'll call it done.
Since this quilt is actually one I'm keeping for myself I couldn't decide how I wanted to machine quilt it. I finally decided that because there is so much going on already that an all over pattern with thread that blended in for the most part would be best.
I really love how it turned out! 
You can see all of the blocks close up here or in the fickr group.

Garden Rows Throw Quilts

The Miller family recently got together and had a family quilt retreat. At that retreat they made these darling Garden Rows quilts, the pattern and the idea for a family quilt retreat comes from Jill Finley's book Stitched Together.
I machine quilted three of their quilts and they were so much fun! Beth asked me to custom machine quilt them but make each one a little different. 

I quilted each one with a little theme.

Elephant Dance & Monkey Party

Aren't these Dear Stella Fabrics about the cutest thing you've seen! I'm totally loving them!

These patterns are some more of darling quilts pieced by Kimberly of the Fat Quarter Shop.


I machine quilted these two with all over swirly designs, if you look closely you can see that they are actually different quilting designs.


So cute for a boy or girl!

Double Irish Chain

Joan pieced this beautiful brown and yellow Double Irish Chain quilt.


She asked me to custom machine quilt it for her. She wanted to quilt to look traditional.
So, I machine quilted feather medallions and cross hatching. Very traditional, I do have to admit, my feathers in the borders aren't the most traditional looking but I do think they turned out pretty cool! :)
Here are a few close up pictures of the machine quilting.


In the studio I have some great lighting while quilts are on my long arm machine. So I love to take little pictures of quilts while they are on the machine. The lighting on the machine always looks so cool.
So this was a little picture of the quilt while it was on the machine.


Hope you have a great day! :)
