Edge 2 Edge Quilts

 A sampler quilt by Irene....something our local fabric shop did with a block-a-month.  Used a Double Rose Vine panto pattern to go with all the florals in the fabrics

 

Another fun little quilt by Ruby's little granddaughter. The fabrics are quite mature on this quilt and I wanted something not very juvenile, yet with movement.  I went with "Water World" panto.  I really almost wish they didn't name the pantograph patterns.  It's not unusual for someone to choose against a design just because of the name, but the design would be perfect.  In this case the design doesn't look like it has anything to do with water.  It looks very cool. 



5 quilts

 

A great sampler by Carla....who took Louise's class.  I love to custom quilt samplers, really makes me think :)

A cool southwestern quilt by Lori. 

You really nave to look at the back to get the full impact of the quilting.

Another beautiful quilt by Devona. 

 

 

A new customer who has moved into our neighborhood, Micah.  She is going to use this for her bedspread and below are the matching pillow sham tops to go with the quilt.

A custom quilt for Agnes.

A pile of edge-to-edge

 

A whole cloth by Idonna with a puzzle panto.

 

Another whole cloth by Connie, with an all over of loops and hearts.

 

 

This was a charity quilt that Louise pieced and asked me if I would quilt...to go towards a charity auction of a lady in town facing large medical bills.

 

oops, upside down.  A great scrappy quilt by Diane, with loops and swirls all over.

 

This probably shouldn't be here, because it's not really an edge to edge.  It's a whole cloth but I outlined all of the elements on the fabric, which took quite awhile.  Should have charged more :)    I love the fabric!

These last two are again by young girls who are taking a sewing class by Devona.  Eliza and Hanna came and picked out their own quilting designs....above was "Chantilly Lace" and below "Mozart". 

 



Some of my quilts

 

I lied, this actually isn't really my quilt....I did quilt it, but my daughter's mother-in-law - Michelle - pieced the top and sent it to me to quilt it.  Since it's for my daughter it kind of feels like my quilt :)  There are two of these, for twin beds, and also a crib quilt that matches.  They hope to start taking in foster children soon, and these quilts will be for the beds for these future children.  It's going to be a very happy room!

 

I always take along some kind of hand work when we go on car road trips, sometimes it's applique. That's where these elephants came from.  I have quite a collection of quilt squares that I never get around to doing anything with, one week I just pulled some fabric out, made a few baby quilts and took them over to the hospital gift shop to see if they would sell.  Just learned this morning that two of them did!  I also had a darling sunbonnet sue quilt that I guess I neglected to take a photo of (darn!) 

 

These last two quilts are just fun baby quilts from randomly textured fabric squares.  I really like the look of these types of quilts, something about them just makes me happy :)  I'll probably run these over to the hospital soon and see if my luck holds again. 

Animal print edge - to - edge

 

Can you tell this is for a guy?  A great man quilt! 

Carry picked out a neat panto pattern that kind of mimicked the zebra stripes...it went very well with the fabric on the quilt.

Zigzag quilt

 

Another fun quilt by Lori.  She made my life easy by just saying to follow the zigzag design.  I decided to do a curved line on each side of the seam instead of a plain SID, just to make it a bit more interesting.   

 

A curvy leaf vine in one of the borders gave a nice contrast to the straighter feel of the rest of the quilting.
