Graduation quilt for Kathryn

Kathryn made this quilt for a close friend celebrating her graduation 

Great choice of fabrics and pattern for a friend that loves... purple! 
Quilted with Sugar Scull Flowers... a fav from Anne Bright 
also quilted for Donna on a fund raiser quilt that she made for her friend 
that is fighting Pancreatic Cancer. Always impressed just how amazing my friends are! 

 The center worked out great, I knew it was spot on horizontally but it worked out
vertically too. Love when that happens! 

 Thread is a newer one from Superior... Omni V 
... a variegated version of Omni that I absolutely love using! 
It shows up nicely for e2e designs when you want the design 
to play second fiddle to the quilt top. 


 Didn't get a full shot but it's a good pattern with a medallion center.
Kathryn did a great job of fabric selection and layout. 
Well done! Thank you Kathryn 

Tot ziens, Jo

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

If interested, call ahead to sign up
You will need the pattern and Hex and More ruler both by Jaybird Quilts
and available at the store
It will be a good class, Kelly's classes always are! 
 Thank you Kelly
Tot Ziens, Jo

Enjoy your weekend
Make time to take a few stitches
