I made these two projects as small quilts for people who participated in the fund raiser I did.
One person asked for a quilt made from neutral tones. She wanted something contemporary and something that looked like I made it - just in neutral tones. Here is what she got - she loves it.

And then, another lady wanted a smaller table decoration - she gave me some color ideas and said - sparkle, sparkle, sparkle.

Date: 3/14/13 11:14 PM Amazing! I hope that one of these days you will do videos of the quilting. You are FEARLESS! I love those. Especially the deco quilting on the second one! :) ------ "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible."

Date: 3/15/13 0:22 AM Very different and interesting. What method did you use to do the quilting on the second one. It almost looks like couching. You are so creative!! |
