Gayle Matkief brought her amazing Tumbling Blocks quilt in to be quilted and WOW did this one ever pop! The fabrics are all RJR Jinny Beyer fabrics for that rich toned finish.
Leslie Ford, the long arm quilter, used the digital design Entangle and Glide thread Prickly Pear for the top of the quilt. Quilt finished at 60" x 84".
Thank you to Gayle for sharing with us all!

Connie Falk

Connie Falk brought her incredible queen size Wilderness themed quilt in for us to long arm for her. Connie started with a panel and grew the quilt out from there. This one is a keeper for Connie and her husband.
The quilt was longarmed using the digital pattern Pinecone Meander with some digitizing happening to make the design suitable for the size and theme of the quilt.
Thank you to Connie for sharing your talents with everyone!

Shirley Chizma

Shirley Chizma was in to long arm her gorgeous Folk Art quilt. This one is a bit special as Shirley and her sister made the quilt so is that not a very cool memory? The rich colours of golds, cranberries, greens and chocolate browns is so gorgeous!
Shirley long arm quilted using the digital pattern Diana with Glide thread Vegas Gold for the top. This is such a lovely quilt you just want to curl up with a good book and have a lazy "all about me kind of day" .
Thank you to Shirley for sharing with us all!

Liz Bruce

Liz Bruce picked up the perfect fabric from our shop and created these amazing curtains for her granddaughter, Evelyn. Liz used the old blackout curtains as the lining and they turned out fantastic!
I love to hear of different things that people have found to make using fabrics. So interesting!
Thank you to Liz for sharing and maybe getting us all to move out of our box a bit.
