Ohio Star and Courthouse Steps

This quilt is a very special one.I made this Quilt for my Sister Vickie,who was going through a great deal of hard times and I wanted this to cheer her up. She had a blood clot in her leg, they could not do anything but cut her leg off from just below the knee then a few weeks after they had to cut off above her knee, I would go to see her when I could in rehab, we were starting to know each other again. Towards the end of that summer 2014 I lost my dog Jake, we had to put him down do to his heart condition. Just before that, we went camping in New Hampshire that is where I finished my sisters quilt. I have not been quilting long only a few months even I was surprised how it came out.

Jelly Roll Waves Lap Quilt in Alison Glass

Jelly Roll Waves is a pattern I came up with as a quick way to use jelly rolls. The pattern includes instructions for 6 sizes from baby to king. The quilt can be made with jelly rolls which uses traditional piecing (and it's still quick!) and yardage for strip piecing (and this is even quicker)! I love this pattern so much that I made four of them within a week! Purchase the pattern here: http://go-2.it/BusyHandsPatterns This quilt is for sale in my quilt shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BusyHandsQuilts

Slices

This is a quilt I quilted from a preprinted panel from PatternJam. I had not used one before and I had trouble doing free motion on my machine. I changed the needle, cleaned it, repeatedly changed the tension and it still wouldn't quilt properly. My mother suggested that it might be the fabric. I think she was right. I had not washed it before making it into a sandwich and I tried quilting with my Pfaff IDT, and it worked much better. I have another panel that I have created and printed at PatternJam and I washed it today before quilting and it is much softer and I think, more pliable to be quilted.

Strip race

I started this as a fun game with my daughter to see who could finish there craft first.(she was arm knitting a scarf). I then decided that I wanted to give it to a friend and coworker haveing her first child. So I backed it with a very soft emoji print fabric.

Office Daydreams

I designed this quilt for an Instagram challenge, #30daysofquiltdesign, and could wait to get started on it. The title comes from the piecing looking like file folders and Anna Marie Horner's Fibs and Fables as the backing and binding. I knew right away I wanted to use Me and You batiks and loved them. The quilt size is 50" x 60" www.quiltachusetts.com This quilt will be hanging in Quiltcon East 2017

Lil' Firecracker

The Daily Deal one day was honoring Rob Appell of Man Sewing fame. I bought the Strata book, template and a roll of Tropicana Solids. Bright and bold, just what the doctor ordered for a 'brown on brown on brown' camper interior. I got all of my stratas made and went to find a solid to finish up the quilt. My first thought was a beautiful floral that had all of the colors of the strata. When I opened the fabric, I realize that it was much more of a scene than just a beautiful floral, so we walked around and found the fireworks show. I love how it turned out, even if I did have to finish it in a mad dash!
