wall hanging

I have just completed this wallhanging for a client using a gold coloured rayon thread that she provided. It quilted up well and this was fun to do.

Same,same but different.

Sisters sent me 2 beautiful tops for me to finish for them. Each quilt was the same design but had different fabric and thread choices. The first treasure I quilted a feather border with a scrolly treatment in the sashings, I used point to point curve in the 2"blocks on both quilts. I used a radiating ray line design in the stitcheries on this first quilt. and a leafy scroll in the sashings. Both quilts looked fabulous when finished








This customer requested cross hatch over the embroidery blocks. I used the same frame for each sash but different border treatment.

one for a teen and one for a little girl.

This is a lovely modern looking quilt made from fat 1/4's . I have quilted this pattern quilt several times now and each one looks different. The fabric choices make a huge difference. This one would be perfect for a teenage girl.








This sweet little quilt is made with a panel in the centre and extra borders added. I quilted this with an all over design of flowers and dragonflies. A quick and easy quilt for a young child

The Dolls House.

Imagine the delight on a little girls face as she is presented with this georgous quilt which I think is called The Dolls House. This quilt is available as a block of the month or a kit from Quilters Bazaar in Gisborne ,Victoria. You can go to their website to order it for your favourite little lady.I custom quilted this with stitch in the ditch and echo quilting,clamshells on the roof, flowering vines up the sides ,clouds in the sky and flowers in the green garden at the bottom. It was great fun.

I have edited this post as I have mixed up the owner of this quilt with another quilter with a quilt of the same colour way.(Only in my mind ). This is the one and maybe only quilt made by my customers niece.Customer had it quilted for her for her birthday/Christmas. I like this very much and I am sure the maker will be very proud of her efforts I custom quilted this with designs by Anne Bright.













This very soft and pretty looking quilt has both normal fabric and chenille blocks. It was quilted with an all over design.The chenille quilts out well.
