The edge to edge digital design chosen is called Fort which added a great depth to the quilt! Top thread Glide Navy.
Thank you so much, Barb for sharing with us all.

Catherine/Joan Lukow
| |
Catherine/Joan ( called that because she goes by both names) , Lukow is the winner for January of a $50 Gift Certificate! She was pretty darn excited!
What really got confusing is that I was away when Coral drew her name and caller, so I had no idea that she was the winner. She came in all excited and I thought she was kidding me. She has whined a teeny tiny bit in the past about not having her name drawn. She went from extreme excitement to total deflation in nano seconds. I then checked and yes she is the winner!
Congratulations to Catherine/Joan on your $50 GC and have fun with it!
Your name is entered to win with every purchase of regular priced product, in store and online. We draw every month!

Heather Batchelor

Heather Batchelor brought her beautiful little quilt in for us to long arm for her. Heather is in love with all the Kim Dheil fabrics with their warm country tones.
She is particularly drawn to the smaller projects and loves the look of them with her antiques.
Beautifully pieced by Heather, long arm quilted by Leslie Ford and loved by everyone who was lucky enough to see it in person! The edge to edge design chosen is called Chicken Wire and digitized down in size. Top thread is Glide Sienna.
Thank you to Heather for sharing.

Tracy pieced this jawdropping quilt and brought it in for us to long arm quilt for her. The Chevrons quilt is a large one at 90 x 107" and was a delight to quilt with lovely piecing!
Leslie Ford did the quilting using the digital design Feather Kisses and top thread is Glide Battleship.
Thank you so much Tracy for sharing....your quilt is amazing!

Laila Salm

Another fabulous quilt that was brought in to be long arm quilted, this time piecing by Laila Salm. Laila chose her palette from the Tim Holtz fabrics and it is just gorgeous! I love the mix of vintage with modern. Tim Holtz is a master at creating the fabrics and Laila really brought them to life in her quilt!
The digital design chosen is Asian Flow with top thread Glide Warm Grey 6. Both Bill and Leslie worked on the quilt for perfect results!
Thank you to Laila for sharing with us all!

Leslie Heppner

Leslie Heppner finished her incredible Plum Fusion quilt and brought it to us to long arm for her. Lots of piecing in this one and she did a stellar job of accuracy!
This one is meant to be a BOM but Leslie just did it as she got to it. It is not overly difficult and the pattern is very easy to read and understand. I too have made the quilt and would rate it at Confident Beginner to Intermediate.
A big quilt, finishing at 108" x 108", Leslie Ford quilted it using a beautiful feathery design called Elizabeth and a neutral thread.

Linda Steeves created her awesome Valentines quilt using up some of her stash of Kaffe fabrics. Notice I use the word "some". LOL
I love the non traditional choice in colours and how well they all worked together. Just warms my heart to see this.
Leslie Ford did the long arm quilting using the design Dear Heart and Glide thread Apricot Blush for the top.
Thank you to Linda for giving us all some fabulous ideas!

Peggy Mutch

Next we have a jaw dropper of a Log Cabin design quilt. Peggy pied the quilt with heaven only knows how many pieces of fabrics and she did amazing placement of all the values of fabrics.
This quilt is going to England by plane with Peggy! Very exciting to think of one of our customers taking a quilt that we finished for her to Europe! Now Peggy has the joy of applying over 400" of binding. There were also 2 pillow shams!!
Bill did the long arm quilting on this one for Peggy using the design called Maple Swirl and Glide Lagoon thread for the top.
Thank you to Peggy and enjoy your trip!

Minu & Wildberry
| |
New fabric in the door and this is gorgeous! We have 3 coordinates and one panel. Love those mushrooms!
This one is called Minu & Wildberry for Elizabeth Studios. There might have been an issue when we placed the order....can you believe 65 panels came in? We decided to put the panels out at $7.99 to get them moving. They are moving incredibly fast so check them out on our website or in the shop! Leslie has just mentioned to me that this would work very well with One Block Wonder!
