Anne Bohn's Quilt

Anne actually left retreat to go home for this quilt so I could quilt it. How sweet is that? She requested a snuggly soft batting so I used Quilter's Dream Poly batting. It really is the snuggliest yet still low-loft! I quilted overall freehand swirls to soften the geometric squares.




Read what Anne sent me when she received her quilt...

"The quilt arrived today and is absolutely beautiful! The batting and the quilting are just right. Thank you so much for rescuing that quilt from just being another quilt. I can't wait to get the binding sewn on."

Thank you, Anne!

Mary McIndoe's Blooming Nine Patch

Mary created this gorgeous glowing quilt for her bed. Measuring 94"x105 ", this is the largest quilt I have ever quilted!
I did an overall freehand design taking inspiration for the quilting from the patterns in the beautiful fabrics.
Aren't her fabric choices amazing?!? The photos simply can't do the quilt justice. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this fabulous quilt!
