Next up from @corasquilts is her Apple Blossom qui

Next up from @corasquilts is her Apple Blossom quilt! Shelley just had an Online Course to make this one. Be sure to check out her website for kits and more information about an On Demand class coming soon. Shelley used her Maybon fabric line from Benartex from spring 2020 to really make the design pop. Her fabrics make the quilt so bold and oh so beautiful!

When Shelley sent this one to me, she was unsure about the quilting design. She usually goes for symmetrical and simpler designs. I had another idea though! One of my favorite floral quilting designs is Cherry Blossom. I love how it flows and the little flowers pop out in the background fabrics. I think it compliments the Apple Blossom quilt just perfectly! Thanks Shelley for letting me influence you!

I’m going to make the rest of this week the gorg

I’m going to make the rest of this week the gorgeous work by Shelley Cavanah of @corasquilts. I’ve been sitting on some pictures of quilts that I quilted for her last year….. Yes, I said LAST YEAR! Boy it’s hard to keep quiet about these for awhile. I’m going to start with one of my favorite patterns Pineapple Promenade. I’ve made 3 of these quilts and each one looks a little different. It’s a very versatile pattern and is fast and easy too!

Shelley made her Pineapple Promenade scrappy with her Maybon fabric line from Benartex from spring 2020. I really love the scrappy look and the colors in the quilt are spot on.

Did you see that Shelley Cavanna has a new pattern book out? Check out Spectacular Stars Simplified: Stitch & Flip Quilts with a Lone Star Look.

Shelley has so many gorgeous quilts in her book and if you haven’t made one of her quilts, you need to! She makes sewing complex patterns so much easier with fantastic results. I was honored to quilt for Shelley and have a couple of quilts pictured in her book. I can’t wait to make one of these gorgeous quilts for myself!

Lisa finished her #jellysnowflakeqal quilt and dec

Lisa finished her #jellysnowflakeqal quilt and decided that Let It Snow quilting would be perfect for this beautiful winter time quilt. This was a Quilt Along with the @fatquartershop and @patsloan. Lisa’s version really speaks winter to me with the fabrics, the pattern and of course the quilting. Beautiful quilt Lisa! Thank you for trusting me to finish this one just right. @lisagshaffer

Let It Snow quilting design is my go to pattern for any wintertime quilt because it is so versatile. Are you sewing winter quilts? Let’s get them quilted before the cold arrives. Contact me to get started. Feel free to DM me or go to my website for contact information and to request quilting.

Are you going to sew along? @corasquilts Northern

Are you going to sew along? @corasquilts Northern Lights quilt is this fall’s QAL. Doesn’t it make you think of being cozy on the couch drinking some tea? I just can’t resist. Did you know Shelley has Saturday Sewcials too? It’s a wonderful way to learn new tips with each weeks assignments on a zoom meeting. For me, it’s better than going to a class and it’s only $10 for the entire sew along!

I’m thinking about which fabrics to use. I haven’t settled on anything yet, but it’s going to depend on the size I make. My quilty heart says to make a queen, but my head tells me that if I don’t want to fall behind I should just make the lap size. I don’t know which to listen to! 🤣 I have a week to decide. 😬

Alycia had an unusual request for her Dear Friend

Alycia had an unusual request for her Dear Friend wall hanging. She felt like it needed something a bit more complimentary than the usual edge to edge quilting that I usually do for clients. She asked me to Free Motion Quilt this one for her. I had to really think about this one. I was scared to death that I would make a mess of it so I tried to figure out a plan. I have to admit this plan took way longer than it should have! Alycia was so patient! I finally sat down and really looked at the piecing, did a bit of googling, and made a mock up of each block and the plan to quilt it. Once I got started it was much easier than I expected! @amaurer65

I owe Alycia some serious appreciation for not only trusting me, but to push me to further my quilting abilities. Will this be the last time I FMQ for someone? Probably not. Just don’t ask me to FMQ something larger than 30” square any time soon. 🤪😂

Check out how gorgeous Amanda’s Knitted Star is

Check out how gorgeous Amanda’s Knitted Star is with Lantern Lights quilting! I absolutely love how the quilting really moves your eyes around the quilt. Amanda learned how to piece by watching Youtube videos and her piecing is impeccable. Are you a person who likes to take classes to learn skills or do you Youtube? @amandamclark

One of the things I love about quilting for people is the amazing quilts I get to see every day. I can see the maker’s personality in each quilt!
