Quilting In Progress.... Double Dipping

So this isn't something I get to do often but I try when I can.  Two quilts loaded at the same time with two different designs.

Saves a little time on loading and in this case, saved some dollars for the customer.  I was able to use less batting with not as much waste.  

Love it!  Gotta get busy again!

Just finished this beauty...

And check out the backing...

Yep, it's minky.  I just love quilts with a minky or flannel back.  The quilting shows up beautifully and they are so warm and cuddly.

I say all the time that quilting to me is about memories.  It is such a blessing to be a part of preserving someone else's memories.

This little beauty is started using a child's sheet with coordinating borders framing it out.  I can only imagine a sweet little girl so excited that she got new little mermaid sheets for her bed.  Now she will have that memory as well as the love put into this quilt forever.  ;)

When looking for a quilt design I found this pattern called "Under the Sea".  Sounds perfect doesn't it.

I am so blessed that so many people trust me with their treasures.

Happy quilting!

Just finished this beautiful quilt from a customer, Sherry Nin!

She does very detailed work and always does a fantastic job!  It is a pleasure to quilt for her.

There is just something about a baby quilt that I love.  This customer quilt is adorable. 

The customer appliqués the letters and the little turtles.  :). Just precious.

Now let's check out the back.

Now onto the next one.

Quilting In Progress....

Oh I'm back in my happy place.  The holidays were wonderful but got me a little behind, then work for me further behind.  Now here I am, in my quilt room and working on this beautiful customer quilt.

Love love love it...

So I think "Thelma" was upset that I took time off for the holidays and allowed me to complete one row on a quilt before she broke.  Thankful we completed the row and it didn't break in the middle.

So after a week more of downtime, Thelma and I are both happy quilters.

Can you see the detail of the needle and thread?  I love it.

This is a beautiful customer quilt that is fuzzy cut and had sewing notions in all the blocks.  

I love the fuzzy cut blocks and wish I had the patience to do some.
