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......

Long time no see....

I'm so sorry, it's been such a long time since I posted. First up, I lost my iPhone which was hording lots of quilt photos then secondly my broadband has been down for at least two weeks and still isn't up to par. Throughout all of that it's been lambing time here on the farm with all that entails...

I'm hoping that my memory serves me well, I'm sure that this quilt is one pieced by Kevin at Fabric Focus in Edinburgh, quilted with a new design named Midsummer, there are stars, flowers, moons, pea pods and swirls, It's an open design that looks great on some of the more modern types of quilts.

Hazel's quilt is a special gift for her Grandson, we chose Seafoam and lovely swirling design with bubbles for this one, quilted with cream thread.

Linda's Sliding Stacked Coins quilt was calling out for a custom design, I freemotion, handguided feathers throughout the columns with a silver grey thread.

This quilt is a special commission for Talking Quilts, it's custom quilted with feathers and continuous curves inside of the blocks in cream and various other coloured threads as appropriate.

I'll be back in a bit with more quilt photos, I know I lost some photos on my phone that hadn't been backed up but only a few and I'm sure I should have other photos on my camera...

It was lovely to have this quilt home again after being away for 6 months in the US. Subtle Differences won a 3rd prize in the Traditional section in The World Quilt Show, New England, in August last year and has travelled around some of the Mancuso shows since then being exhibited in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Manchester, New England, California, and a few other shows, I'll look them up and edit ....
