Haunted Mansion

This quilt was super easy and fast to make using the 9-Patch Pizzazz technique by Judy Sisneros the Haunted Mansion panel by Henry Glass Fabrics. I quilted it with the Spiders & Webs digital design by Wasatch Quilting.

RowByRowExperience2023

Finished!!! My Row By Row Experience 2023 challenge quilt. The challenge is to make a quilt using at least 8 (9" x 36") panels created by participating quilt shops. I created mine using panels from 8 Texas quilt shops and one from a quilt shop in Alaska with a moose just because I liked it. It was great fun. The digital quilting design is Fluidity. The label lists each quilt shop and panel

RibbonsOfConnection_Front20230219.JPG

My "Ribbons Of Connection" quilt from Sarah Ruiz's CPQGTX Ribbons workshop. I started out using fabric from my stash. I had a multicolor stripe for the poles the ribbons are wound around. When I laid the pieces on my picnic tablecloth design wall, the stripe was a discordent element that made it butt ugly. So I searched for a fabric that would pull it together and found this yellow Black History Month Celebration fabric that was perfect. I quilted it with "Smokin" by Anne Bright to mimic the streamers in the Black History fabric.

BeyondTheAuroraDoubleVision_Front.JPG

Here's my latest double vision quilt "Beyond the Aurora - Double Vision", I'm thrilled with how it turned out. The tigers look like they're standing on a black rock. I quilted it on my longarm. The center with Wild Swirls by Anne Bright Designs and the border with CW Bdr by Wasatch Quilting. I created this double vision quilt as a sample for a class I'm teaching on the "double vision technique", using two panels I got from eQuilter.com: Beyond the Aurora by Timeless Treasures and Aurora-Light Over the Forest by the Rubin Design Studio.

Wanderlust_Paris_Front.JPG

My Summer Vacation! This depicts the places I visited in Paris this summer. I used Hoffman Fabrics Wanderlust panel to create a sample for a class I teach on the Harmonic Convergence technique. When my husband saw the Eiffel Tower, he said, "Why don't you add the other places we visited?" With that inspiration I created appliques for Notre Dame, Luxembourg Palace Gardens, Moulin Rouge and then embroidered labels for each historic building using my new Janome CM17 embroidery machine.

UdderCuriosity_Front.jpg

I'm just thrilled with my "Udder Curiosity" quilt. I saw this cows panel and had to make a quilt. I used Ricky Tims Harmonic Converenge technique where you meld 4 different fabrics. The corners without the cows looked sort of bare so I created 3 mini convergence circles and sewed them into the corners. It's quilted it on my longarm with a pattern called "Wild Swirls" that sort of looks like the leaves of grass in the cows panel.
