Jzhuskies Achievements Part Of The Pack Apr 3, 2019 You Look Great Feb 15, 2019 Quilt Master Feb 15, 2019 View All Projects Likes Lists Following Followers Exploding Rockets and Robots I purchased this adorable baby charm pack a few years ago. A friend of mine was having a boy so I decided to use it and create a falling charm quilt. I didn't put it together as the tutorial said, but the squares look like they are bouncing around, which I like. I used the entire charm pack and added an inner and outer border. It made an enormous quilt! I think my friend will use it as a toddler quilt!

I decided I wanted to add a splash of contrasting color so I added a center to the flowers. By Jzhuskies 35 LIKES | 1412 VIEWS Dad's Birthday Quilt I made my Dad a quilt for his 87th birthday. He loved to fly and the year I was in 8th grade he and I repaired a wrecked Cessna. He taught me to fly it. It was wonderful. I needed a pattern that used larger pieces because his eyesight is failing. I choose the disappearing 9-patch using layer cake squares, which I bordered. By Jzhuskies 7 LIKES | 1003 VIEWS Baby Quilt I wanted to make a baby quilt for a friend's daughter that had interesting colors and fell in love with the Into The Deep line. I created 9-patches and sewed them together, backed it with Into The Deep and quilted it with straight line stitching on either side of the ditch. I wanted to hold it together but make sure it would be soft after it was washed. By Jzhuskies 10 LIKES | 851 VIEWS Half and Half Christmas Quilt I wanted to make a masculine quilt for my son for Christmas. I happened to find two very similar Christmas prints that included deer, red, black, and green (his favorite colors). I loved Jenny's Half and Half tutorial so instead of using a solid and a print I used both of the prints. I added a small inner border and larger outer border. Since it was so large I had it quilted by a local quilt shop. I wasn't sure it worked but my son loved it, which is what counted in the end. By Jzhuskies 4 LIKES | 852 VIEWS Anniversary Quilt My husband asked me one day why I made so many quilts but had never made one especially for him. I got busy making a quilt for him for our 24th Anniversary. I used Jenny's square in a square tutorial using black and batiks. I backed it with batik turtles and quilted it myself in wavy lines, to mimic water for the turtles.

We now live far away and I wanted to make her something she could hold and know I was there with her. She and I share a love for classical music. I was delighted to find an All That Jazz by Robert Kaufman layer cake. I decided to make a heart quilt and use Jenny's falling charm idea to stagger the hearths. By Jzhuskies 25 LIKES | 827 VIEWS Wedding Quilt for Derek I wanted to make a wedding quilt for a young man who we consider a son. He is an avid outdoorsman so I knew I had to find just the right fabric. I was happy to find the River Journey line and pair it with a brown solid. I made HST (4/layer cake pair) so the prints would show up. I had it quilted by a local quilter in an acorn and leaf motif. I just loved how it turned out. I found a dark brown batik for the back that brought in the browns from the front. It was gifted in 7/20/2017 By Jzhuskies 4 LIKES | 665 VIEWS Grinch Christmas 2017 My oldest daughter loves the Grinch. I found a cute Grinch collection and had to make her a quilt to watch all those Christmas specials. I backed it with red polka dot fleece and had it quilted at a local quilter with holiday ornaments. I used Jenny's double slice pattern - my go-to for a fast and fun quilt. By Jzhuskies 5 LIKES | 726 VIEWS Kalaidescope I made this quilt for my daughter's friend who was moving away. I used the periwinkle template and Jenny's tutorial. I backed it with this neat Volkswagen bus fabric and quilted it with swirls. By Jzhuskies 11 LIKES | 975 VIEWS Highland Hearts I made this quilt for my youngest granddaughter when she was 7 years old. Her favorite color was purple. Years previous I had purchased a Daily Deal from MSQ called Highland Jewels which had beautiful purples and teals and cats. It was perfect. I baked it with Tula Pink's Freefall in purple. I had seen Jenny's Cheerio Quilt and decided to try it with hearts. I had it quilted by a local quilter as I was afraid my little home machine could not handle all the applique layers. It was gifted for Christmas 2016. By Jzhuskies 3 LIKES | 696 VIEWS Summer Banners I made a fun quilt for one of my granddaughters whose favorite color was orange. I used the Our Town collection which included lots of bright colors, bicycles, and urban architecture. I backed it in fabric from the line and quilted it with an overall meander. It was perfect for her. I used the wedge template and Jenny's tutorial to make the banner quilt. It was my first time using the wedge template and I loved how the quilt came together. It was gifted for Christmas 2016. By Jzhuskies 9 LIKES | 833 VIEWS Rainbow Scrappy Patches Meet Scrappy Patches in Rainbow! This version of my new Scrappy Patches quilt pattern looks totally different than the others! I am so tickled with how versatile this pattern is and how quick it is to finish! I quilted wavy lines in gray thread using Mrs.Bernina and a walking foot. The serpentine stitch does not work on Mrs.Bernina, so the waves are very organic.The backing is some delish high-quality fabric I found at JoAnn's a while back.

When I had completed the design I submitted it to Modern Patchwork Magazine and it was booked! It's my first published quilt and the pattern is now available in the Mar/Apr edition of Modern Patchwork. www.quiltachusetts.com SEE THIS QUILT AT QUILTCON 2018 [UPDATE] Urban Trek won 1st Place Use of Negative Space at QuiltCon 2018!! By LIZZYANNE 37 LIKES | 1813 VIEWS Pins and Paws My daughter just ended a two year relationship and moved into a new apartment with Two of the three cats they shared. She loves cats. When I saw this tutorial, I knew I had to make this quilt for her birthday next month. To make it fit a queen sized bed. I added an extra column and increased the border sizes. I also made two pillow shams to add to the ensemble. I will probably also make a dust ruffle. I still have to back, Longarm and bind the quilt. I am quite pleased!!! By Katrbrown 16 LIKES | 1089 VIEWS Periwinkle (Wacky Web) Butterfly Blossoms Quilt My family, as most families, has lost loved ones to cancer. My Mom, Ola, in August 2015. My nephew, Jordan, December 2014, at the much-too-young age of 30. My mom taught me to be "crafty". We did lots of crafts together. But we never quilted together. I only discovered MSQC and Pinterest and all those wonderful ideas and tutorials after she passed. She would have loved them both! But anyway! - I was looking for a new "therapy" craft that she and I had never done together. I found quilting! I have some quilt tops that she left and I'm working my way up to finishing those into quilts. One day! This is my largest quilt so far. Not sure I can make one bigger but we'll see.

I used precuts for the color pieces except for a very few which were from scraps of my own little girl's dresses I had made. My cell phone camera helped in identifying tones with a tonal photo. By akaJaneAce 17 LIKES | 1060 VIEWS Winter Pines Quilt I saw this quilt pattern in Block, Summer Volume 2 Issue 3. I loved the story and thought this would be a great pattern for my second quilt. I purchased fabric at MSQC and got it cut out and ready to sew before the holidays...then Christmas chaos took over! I finished the quilt top late January and thought that by the time the quilting service was complete that I would just tuck it away for next winter, but I live in Missouri and winter is hanging on and on and on! So today, I'm cozy in my quilt while the cold wind howls. By nshane 25 LIKES | 1053 VIEWS Flurry The pattern is called Flurry and is free online by Kate Spain.

The new photo above is my son Geoff posing with his new quilt, which he received for Christmas 2018. Although I've been quilting since 2014, this is the first quilt I've made for him, and he seems pretty happy about that! ------------------------------- ------ May 3, 2018 On a whim, I purchased a jelly roll from Craftsy in the summer of 2017 that reminded me of silk neckties worn in the '70s. Inspired by Jenny Doan's tutorial "Make a Bowtie Quilt Block" I started the project in December using a black jelly roll for the background, then pieced the blocks together in circles rather than as individual bowties. It was really an easy block and only took about a week to put everything together. The backside is Minky, and the batting is Hobbs 80/20. The edge-to-edge free-motion long arm quilting pattern is called Fire Flower, by Lyn Durbin at Camlyn Quilting in Smokey Point, Washington. Lyn used purple thread so the pattern would show up on the black background fabric. The quilt is lap sized at about 54"x62" and was finished in January 2018. I love quilting!
