Another Spring Quilt in the works:)

A little preview of another "springy" quilt currently on my longarm machine. Yes, I do quilt late at night, that's why the pics are a little on the dark side:) More pics to come once the quilt is finished!

Oversized King Quilt.... Done:)

I'm so happy that I finished this hexagon quilt for a lovely customer of mine! I actually finished it back in January but didn't have the time and location picked out in order to take some photos. I'm not really good at taking decent pics so I let my hubby take over that job. I'm too busy sewing and quilting anyway:)
I used the beautiful fabrics from Anna Maria Horner's Innocent Crush line. I love love her fabrics and luckily my customer did as well. As the contrasting fabric I chose Kona cotton in Ash and it really made the colors pop. Also made matching quilted flanged pillow shams to go with this quilt:)
I might have to sew and quilt this one for myself one day! I still do not have my own handmade quilt as of yet, I guess I'm too busy making things for family, friends, charity, and customers of course:) Yep, one day I have my own little quilt!
 Btw, this quilt measures a whooping 114" by 114", the biggest quilt I've made so far!

Spring is here.... sort of:)


Spring is here, at least in my sewing and quilting room:) Here are some quilts I finished just in time for the warmer season. The first quilt was made with Moda Nature's Chorus fabric line by April Cornell. The colors are just beautiful together; pretty greens, corals, and aqua blues. Love the aqua colored backing:) The quilting on this quilt is totally freehand, no pantograph was used. 
For the second quilt I used Heather Bailey's "Nicey Jane" fabric line. I adore the colors and designs, they complement each other so well which truly shows in this quilt. Used an allover baptist fan quilting pattern for this one. Both quilts are currently in my etsy shop:)
