Boxer Quilt

I love the idea of making a quilt from pieces of other important or memorable things. This one is made from several pairs of boxers. Girl boxers, you know comfy pajama shorts, not worn as underwear. Any how. Really simple quilting going on here. X's in the background squares, and continuous curves in the print squares.

Christmas Tabletopper

Or maybe it's not so Christmasy. Could go either way I guess. I didn't even really quilt it Christmasy unless you want to say the flowers are poinsettias which would work. I really like the way the quilting turned out on this one. There is the poinsettia looking flower in the center and on the border. The gold sections have a leafy looking feather, and one of my favorites, the continuous curve in the checker boards.

Thimbleberries House and Garden 2007

Attention all Thimbleberries Club Members across the planet, I think this quilter beat you all to the punch. She got her quilt done in a jiffy, and now it is quilted, and soon to be bound. This is probably my favorite Thimbleberries club quilt in the last say, five years or however long my mom and sister have been hosting a club. I love the cheery yet warm fabrics, and the layout on this quilt was really easy to quilt. Below are a few details of my favorite parts.
Hmmm... I guess you can't see the stitching too well. There are swirly hearts in the tulips, and in the center of the green block.

I am perfecting my feathers lately, so I added some here.


More continuous curves, feathers, and a swirly vine, which I realize you probably can't see.

Picket Fence Table Runner


Here is the November table runner for Gatherings Quilt Club. I wanted to especially point out the checker board center. I quilted this with continuous curves which is a very basic and traditional quilting pattern. I love the way it softens the straight lines in the checkerboard.
