QuiltsBy.me

I recently purchased a longarm machine, so i want to practice free motion quilting with it . My son asked me to make a Queen size quilt for his bed. He wanted solid green for the top, and Woolies grey flannel for the back. I tried to talk him into allowing me to be creative with the quilting design, but he didn’t want it to look like a “craft project”. He even searched for pantographs online and requested Geometric Diamonds by Christy Dillon. I warned him that I was probably not going to be able to quilt consistent straight lines because I’m new at this. He was fine with that. I tried to talk him into allowing me to use a variegated thread to jazz it up a bit, but he preferred a thin grey thread which would be less noticeable. This was my first project with Woolies flannel. It is very soft and much nicer than traditional flannel. It weighs more too. My quilting is wonky as predicted. Washing it twice has made it appear less wonky. I was surprised that it ended up being very heavy. I named it the Boring Bear as I wrestled with the size and weight of it as I attached the binding. He is very pleased with how it turned out, and now he’s asking for matching pillow shams.

Wedding and Baby quilt combo

My receptionist got married and is now having a baby in May. This quilt turned out to be to big for a baby and kind of small for a wedding....so perfect for combo. Did Jelly roll race and used Play All Day by Moda. Quilted by Missouri Star.

Dimensional Pinwheels

I watched the Missouri Star quilt triple play video. Loved the projects they demonstrated and wanted to try something new. This was easy and fun. I added buttons that I had on hand for the center of the pinwheel.

Quilt from a kit

This was my first time using a kit. I can see all my mistakes, but I still think it's beautiful, and I love the book that goes with it. Many thanks to the author of "The Quiltmaker's Gift" Jeff Brumbeau and illustrator Gail de Marcken. Anyway, my Aunt Joyce bought this Benartex kit back in 2000 or 2002. She took it out of her closet, still untouched, for me to tackle in 2020! I learned a lot about quiltmaking by following directions (still no real planning involved--yay!) and am happy with the result.

Pet the Bunny Toddler Quilt

When my daughter told me that my 7-month old grandson was "petting" various blankets and crocheted throws around her house, I began thinking about making a little minky-type quilt of his own to pet. This is what I came up with. The three bunnies are an embossed embroidery design (from EL). There is no batting in the quilt, just a non-stretchy, non-pilling piece of soft fleece for the backing. I think he'll love it, although he doesn't yet know what a bunny is. This quilt is 21 inches square.

Peggy's Quilt #33 - Mod Owls

This is my 33rd quilt. It’s a twin size at 62”W x 78”L before washing. The Mod Owls pattern is by Jenny Pedigo and Helen Robinson for Sew Kind of Wonderful. The kit was purchased from Missouri Star in July 2018 but I didn’t start sewing until May 2019, finishing in June 2019. The quilt and pillowcase are for my granddaughter Bennett Rose, for her 8th birthday in February 2020. This was fun to make because of the batik fabric and curved owls – my first effort at sewing curves. The free-motion long arm quilting was beautifully completed by Lyn Durbin. At my request, she used a darker thread so that the leaves and curls would show on the light batik background as well as the owl fabrics. My sister and I bought a set of books to go with this owl themed quilt. The series is Guardians of Ga’Hoole” by Kathryn Lasky. I hope the grandkids will enjoy sitting under the owl quilt reading owl stories. Posted by Peggy at Bothtwins on February 5, 2020.

Tea Cakes

So I needed a fast pattern for a lady's 40 year Sobriety gift. She was turning 90 that day to so it had to be real special. grabbed the computer and has this thing ordered, watched how to, and had it done and out in 3 weeks. Fastest I ever sewed before- definitely a GOD deal there. Trying to bind it THAT day the Puppy was getting aggravated she STILL didn't have one yet. She loves it - just the right size she tells me.

My sweet sister Debbie’s quilt, I made

My sister has always had a cat. She loves cats! My sister is now 68 years old. I have never made her a quilt before. So when I thought about creating a quilt just for her, it was easy to come up with an idea of what to creat when I saw the MSQC’ kitty pattern. I just had to make one for her, and I did. She loves it!, Thank You! for all the wonderful patterns you have shared with the world. This pattern was very easy and quick to make. I used a whole stack of 42, 10 inch squares from a fabric line I had purchased from Japan, to make this quilt. My friend Kirsti from “My Quilting Loft” quilted it for me with hearts and yarn balls quilted all over it.
