Log Cabin with Stars and Feather Background Fill

I quilted this quilt for my sweet neighbor Myrle a few weeks ago. She sewed this intensively for a few weeks. It is a gift for her daughter's bed. As you can see there are many, many small pieces in this quilt.

The portions of the quilt with patterned fabrics are quite busy, so I quilted those areas more simply. I focused the fancy quilting to the white background fabric which I filled with feathers and swirls.

Veterans Quilt

I quilted this for my good friend Kelly a few weeks ago. She pieced it along with her mom, Marie Cole, and they will be donating it to the local veteran's hospital. I believe quilting had it's roots with the intent to help others, so I am always happy to get the opportunity to work on a charity project.

I quilted this with an all over free hand spiral design. It is a classic, and one of my favorites. I discovered a while back, that gold thread is the way to go when doing a red white and blue themed quilt. I used it again on this quilt, and really love it.
