QuiltsBy.me

This is from the book Easy Layer Cake Quilts 2. I made it into a king sized quilt and did the quilt-as-you-go method. It is VERY bright in the room….perhaps too much so for my taste. My future daughter-in-law loves it so I will most likely gift it to her.

O Christmas Tree

I made this king size quilt for my daughter for Christmas. I designed a 10" tree block to alternate with the MSQC Irish Change block. I used "O Christmas Tree" fabric by Sue Zipman for Clothworks, Stitch fabric by Lori Holt, Seaglass Sahara backing by P and B Textiles. I quilted it with Wasatch design Modern Christmas Tree 2013. 111" x 101"

Disappearing Hour Glass

This is the first of several quilts I’m working on for Christmas presents for my 6 adult children . This quilt is actually my second quilt. I used a layer cake named Coral Canyon and a white layer cake from Missouri Star Quilts. I am now in the process of adding the borders one 3 inch border of sea foam and emerald green and one 4 inch border of Coral Canyon of coral reef. The son that this is going to is the Captain of a crew/supply boat in the gulf out of Venice Louisiana.

Confetti Star

I love the look of batiks and love working with them. When I saw Jenny's tutorial on the Confetti Star, I knew it would look great with an assortment of batiks. I quilted it on a long arm using a pantograph. I am very happy with the way it turned out, although I didn’t think I would ever finish hand stitching the binding.

Northwest Grand Adventure

For my grandson's wedding quilt, Missouri Star Grand Adventures pattern seem to fit the bill. He enjoys hiking, snowboarding, and other outdoor activities that the northwest has in great abundance. The quilt size 93” x 90” is a generous size. I selected the digital print Wildwood Way 10 inch layered precut Handpicked Exclusively for MSQC from RJR Studio. The background of light green/white small checked fabric called “Flourish” by Natalia and Kathleen of Piece-n-Quilt from Moda Fabrics. The 20 large blocks 15” x 18” allowed for the beautiful patterns of the fabric to shine. I also added complementary batiks from my stash collection. I embroidered and quilted northwest woodland scenes and designs and I incorporated one of the background blocks with the wedding couple's name and wedding date. Sewed matching pillowcases from the remaining fabrics.

Into the Woods

My daughter asked me to make a quilt for her boyfriend of three years. We looked for fabric together and she ended up selecting the "Wild at Heart" layer cake by Riley Blake. As it turned out, I had also picked up a layer cake of this fabric as a daily deal. He is very tall so we needed both layer cakes. This one is 80 x 101, the largest quilt I've made to date. After looking at the fabric I decided I didn't want to cut it up into small pieces. I remembered Jenny's Super Simple Squares. Jenny used charms but I used the layer cake. It was backed in snuggly Shannon black fabric. I really like how it turned out. Better yet, he loved it!

Corona Quilt Number 2

When I made my first quilt from my husband's shirts, I told everyone that it was my first and last quilt. A friend warned that I would be hooked. She was right. I started looking at patterns and found this one on the Missouri Star site. I thought it would look great on my bed. Jenny calls this stars and pinwheels. I made it larger for a king sized bed by making using Quilt In A Day for all the flying geese. This photo is before sending it off to my quilting lady.

Easy Carpenter's Star Kaffe Fassett

I could not wait to show you this "Easy Carpenter's Star" in Kaffe Fasset Spring 2019 Collective. It's so pretty, I plan to put a 2" white border and a 6" colored border. Will add another pic when it's done. I think any Kaffe Fassett Collective would work with this pattern. thanks Jenny. What do you all think?

Night Sky

Our youngest granddaughter just graduated from high school so this is her quilt I made. The pattern is Night Sky and I used fabric from Missouri Star from the Sage & Sea Glass collection by Kim Diehl for Michael Glass. Her favorite color is green and she loved this pattern. It was pretty difficult for me since it is all half square triangles. Too bad I didn't have the triangle square-up ruler when I did this. lol My husband says this is the prettiest quilt I have done. The support group were so helpful in helping me increase the size to king. Couldn't have done it without them. Thanks Missouri Star.

Hour glass

This is my hourglass quilt. I started out with two cakes and mixed dark and light but decided there was not enough contrast so I added an extra border.

Camper Coverlet

I purchased a layer cake with a theme from Riley Blake that I thought would look really cute in the camper. There weren't, of course, enough blocks, so I used some blanks to fill in the required amount of blocks needed. I needed 49 to make it a king size for the camper. I also added the sashing strips to give it a bit more width. It's just a front and back, no filling. Sometimes this is just enough to have on the bed in the summer time. I did "quilt" the blocks first.
