Edge to edge designs....

I did find that elusive SD card from my camera, guess where it turned up, there were a few quilt photos on there too....



This is Margaret's Chimney quilt, that's the name of the block, pieced from the scrap bag and quilted with Gypsy a digitised design and cream thread






Mary's read and blue stars quilt is huge and was quilted with Chocolate Leaves a digitised design and silver thread




A colourful quilt from Frieda, it's a Tula Pink pattern, quilted with Bejewelled a digitised design and using a blue/green batik backing fabric supplied by me @ Borderline Quilter.





This is Mary's star quilt, unfortunately this seems to be the only photo I have, lots of colourful stars and quilted with Midsummer a digitised design using a white thread....


Sheena's quilt is a block of the month type design with piecing and faux applique, quilted with Chocolate leaves a digitised design using cream thread






Jane's Shoofly quilt was pieced from her scrap bag, it looks lovely and was quilted with Midsummer a digitised design and white thread.



And there we are all caught up with photos, I'll be back soon with some quilts from May.....

Digitised quilting....

OK, I'm frantically trying to find an SD card that has photos of recently quilted quilts on it, the card is being a little evasive just now, but I have come across a few quilts on my laptop that haven't had a showing yet.
So some photos of quilts that were here around late March, early April might have been lost in the confusion of loosing my phone although I did take photos on my camera too, so sorry if your quilt different make the blog.

 Claire pieced this quilt top for her good friend Lorna who owns a camper van, isn't it fabulous and what a unique gift, I quilted it using a digitised design named Seafoam.





Another quilt from Claire randomly pieced with a lovely bright jelly roll and quilted with a digitised design named Midsummer



Isn't this a lovely child's quilt pieced by Grace and quilted with a digitised design named Seafoam

An eclectic mix.....


Another of Lillian's quilts which was pieced in a class with Kevin at Fabric Focus in Edinburgh. Its a simple block which when laid out reveals the Hidden Pinwheels, quilted with a digitised design named Gypsy using a Khaki Sand coloured thread...






Another Hidden Pinwheels quilt but in a totally different colourway, this one was pieced by Ishbelle quilted with a digitised design named Blooming Feather in a gold coloured thread.





This double sided quilt was pieced by Eunice. Centring double sided quilts can cause problems, it isn't always easy to get those edges to line up. As you can imagine all of those pieces need to be pretty accurately pieced for this to work our correctly and even then the layers can slide so I always tell my customers that 'I will do my best but no promises'. On this occasion all worked out well, the chosen digitised design was Gypsy using a silver grey thread....






Another quilt from Eunice, a traditional Double Wedding Ring quilt. I used a digitised design in the stretched squares and the melons in a cream thread and handguided freemotion work in the rings using a grey thread....



















Back soon with more stunning quilts......
