More Longarm Quilting

A few more quilts that I quilted on the longarm.

Unfortunately, I don't take a picture of every quilt that I quilt.

Caroline the Butterfly


This new Butterfly pattern, "Caroline" is now available. 



This Crab pattern, "Jimmy" has been very popular. We have had many requests to do this same technique with different objects. Somehow we got busy with other things and that idea got put on a back burner.  

Then, a teacher that my daughter, Faith, is very close with got pregnant with her first child. Faith wanted us to make her a quilt. When they found out it was a girl they decided to do the nursery in purple with butterflies. Immediately my daughter knew what she wanted to make.

Faith came up with the butterfly outline and chose all of the fabric. I enlarged the pattern on the computer. Faith traced the pattern onto the fabric. I stitched the outline.



 Faith cut and glued the fabric onto the butterfly. I quilted it and put the binding on. It truly was a joint effort. 



The teacher was holding out on the baby's name until her birth. She did let Faith in on a little secret that "Faith" was one of the top two names. Faith ended up being the baby's middle name. The baby's name is Caroline Faith. Therefore the name of this pattern.  



While Faith was making her gift I was making one for a shop sample.

Program With Tula Pink

Some of my friends and I went to see Tula Pink about a month ago. A guild about 2 hours from us hosted her. We took off work early and hit the road. Those of us that went were already Tula Pink fans, but now I think we really are Fanatic about her.

I believe I can honestly say that this was the best quilty lecture I have ever heard. Tula Pink is so real and true to who she is. The stories behind her fabric lines are very very interesting. She really needs to write these stories down for all to read. She is extremely talented and creative.


Lou with Tula.



Patti with Tula.
As you can see, Patti couldn't keep her hands off of her.





Not only is Tula Pink's fabric design amazing, but her patterns are as well. 
These are some close up pictures of her Butterfly Quilt. 
Of course with me being a longarm quilter I had to check out the quilting up close.
Angela Walters does all of Tula's quilting.





This quilt is made using her new line "Bumble."
We now have these fabrics in stock.





This is a close up of "Moxie" made with Foxfield.



Here are some close ups of her "100 Block City Sampler."



Me and Patti with Tula.
Unfortunately, Carol took all of the photos and we were so excited we didn't even think to get her in a picture.

Thank you Carol!
