Snack Time and more for Linda

Linda D's quilt made in Kelly's Snack Time workshop at HRQ

Snack Time is a pattern from Jaybird Quilts

Julie has a number of patterns published now and is doing quite well. 

A bunch of us quilters have done and are making a few of them 

plus purchasing her specialty rulers... LOVE the Hex and More!

"helping fund her retirement" says Barbara (have to agree!) lol

I recently did a Pinterest search and found a pattern I purchased years ago that is from Jaybird called Taffy, so apparently I've been contributing for quite some time!

Great Kaffe fabrics! and the backing is perfect!!!

Well done Linda :0)

Thank you

Quilted with a design called Wild Cherries 

Thread is a variegated SoFine40 from Superior

with a Omni thread called Wintergreen for the back.  

Batting is a newer 100% cotton from Quilter's Dream

Cotton Deluxe. Love it! Again, really good alternative to W&N
note: it really IS 100% cotton! If you check out the fiber contents of Hobbs Cotton and
Warm & Natural you will find that both of their cotton bats have poly blended in.

I love how Linda combined her fabrics for her version 

of Snack Time ~ nicknamed Cheerios! 

Linda also made Modern Building Blocks which I quilted earlier this year. 

(pictured below) also a workshop with Kelly

 

Today I finished another Modern Building Blocks for Karen G

and about to start a third one for Debbie D 

pix soon

plus one more in the works by Fran

Kelly's workshops @ HRQ are pretty awesome! 

So far it's been Modern Building Blocks, Ripple, Snack Time

This is Linda's Ripple quilted with Celtic Knot
set up as a custom e2e in each of the blocks ~ blog post 

and we are two blocks into Toes in the Sand.

Kelly K ~ T-shirt, quilts and Snack Time

 This is a quilt Kelly made for a family friend quilted in December

It's the best T-shirt/shirt quilt I have ever seen, well done Kelly!

Made of both T-shirts and Hawaiian shirts

Each block is different and quilted differently as well

 The shirts were fussy cut and pieced with fabric

Kelly mixed in mostly Moda's Grunge

 I added flip flops to a couple of the blocks

Recently, I finished the quilting on two more quilts for Kelly

This small quilt Kelly made with yarn dyed fabrics, great color saturation

The quilt below is a store sample Kelly made

that will be up at Honey Run Quilters very soon

Fabrics available, of course, at Honey Run Quilters 

The Grunge fabric from Moda is also available there

It's a really good fabric to blend with other fabrics, Kelly uses it allot
It's even in this sample quilt, the light has a tinge of green
that worked well with the green Omni thread used for the quilting

The quilting design is from Anne Bright named Sugar Skull Flowers

The batting Kelly brought in for all three quilts is Quilter's Dream Blend

Great batting for machine quilting, it's a cotton/poly blend

This coming Saturday, January 30th Kelly is teaching a class

Snack Time from Jaybird Quilts

Here is a link

If interested, call ahead to sign up

You will need the pattern and Hex and More ruler both by Jaybird Quilts

It will be a good class, Kelly's classes always are! 

 Thank you Kelly

Tot Ziens, Jo

Enjoy your weekend
