The next three are quilted on my Innova...

Beckie's Birds

Gorgeous fabrics! Quilted with wool batting, an Omni thread

and a design called Bird in a Nest

Beckie's Birds with a Viewer's Choice award!

This quilt Beckie made for Steve and can be found hanging in his office.

Steve's Quilt made by Beckie

It has birds quilted in the gold border because, 

in case you haven't figured it out, Beckie loves birds!

and one of my favorites, Shenandoah

This quilt I did a custom e2e with Williamsburg 

with a layout flipping and mirroring the design.

Quilted with a wool batting and a gold Glide thread.

Birds for Beckie

LOVE the fabrics Beckie put together for this quilt! 

The colors and a great pattern to showcase the prints. 

Quilted with a sweet little pattern ~ Bird in a Nest

Omni thread in Verbena

Quilter's Dream Wool batting

Just like the Autumn wedding quilt, the fabrics are the star.

The quilting is there for the texture

Beckie used the focus fabric for the backing as well

Absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you Beckie, see you later today :0)

Beckie and I are starting a new quilt project together ~ Moon Glow

and plan to work on the second block today.

This one is quilted for Claudia

again, the quilting is the texture that adds to the quilt

Quilted with a cotton thread from Signature in just the right shade of blue

and a wool batting to make the quilting pop

On the frame where you can see the texture of the design

Woven Wind by Apricot Moon

Also made with great fabric choices. And made well!

Borders are the most common problem area for longarmers. When borders are cut too small or too long and/or just added to the edges of a quilt top without measuring thru the middle, it makes for a challenge to keep the quilt square without quilting in tucks. Making a quilt like this one is is a good challenge in getting borders right and Claudia always does a beautiful job :0) So does Beckie. Sew nice to have good quilters as these two women for customers. Thank you Claudia and Beckie!

The backing fabric.

Almost finished is a sample quilt for Honey Run that will go to PIQF.

Checked in a couple more quilts this week that will go into ASQG quilt show

Have a wonderful weekend
Tot Ziens, Jo
