Legendary Buffalo Chip, Sturgis 30th Anniversary - backside quilting detail

Giddy — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 06:41:32 GMT

I don't mind showing how imperfect my quilting is because I know that every time I practice I might get just a tad better every time. I will never be a show quilter by any means. (I"m bipolar NOT OCD! LOL ) I admire those quilters with the artistic talent and patience it takes to do what they do! They ARE the ones who inspire me to at least try!

The Legendary Buffalo Chip, Sturgis - 30th Anniversary

Giddy — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 06:16:45 GMT

I was asked to make this quilt for the Buffalo Chip for their Anniversary. I didn't get any really good pictures of it because I was behind schedule :( but it was the first time I did any kind of thread work with metallic thread :| ... I was NOT a happy camper but it turned out better than I thought it would. The center skull is about 7 different shades of metallic and rayon thread.

Feel the Teal

I put this quilt together with blocks made by the Outlaw Quilters and the Feel the Teal Club. It's a co-effort fundraiser for the Teal Club and cancer awareness. We called the quilts the 'Teal Twins' but there will eventually be three of them I will finish the third in the coming months.

I made this wall hanging for a friend of mine in the Carnival business. He commissioned me to make a King size quilt for his business partners wife and this is the miniature version of it! I loved it so much. This was also a great practice piece for me on skill building with my freemotion quilting
