Ana's November 9th Quilt

Based on the events of November 8th, 2016, Ana decided to make a quilt to reflect her feelings of everything that was happening. In light of that, I added some "angry quilting" patches to the design. The majority of the thread is a dark gray, with an accent of a bright green thread in certain areas. I love how it turned out!

Check out this stunning quilt by Ann! The embroidery is amazing and this will surely be a fantastic wall hanging. Custom quilting was definitely the way to go with this one!

Flower Wool Applique

This next quilt is absolutely gorgeous! It was made by Donna and of course it deserved some custom quilting! Each block has some unique quilting to highlight her hard work. Love it.

Weimaraner Applique

This adorable quilt was appliqued by Diane with tons of negative space. When I saw it, I knew I had to quilt this cute pup into a scene. I placed him on a hill with a large tree in the foreground and smaller trees in the background. And of course some leaves blowing in the wind! I love how this one turned out!

Swirly Girls Design's Machine Pieced Hexagon Quilt

This hexagon quilt was entirely pieced by machine! So cool!  I wanted to highlight the centers of the hexagon shapes with a feather motif that resembled a flower.  The very center deserved a different design to create more intrigue.  I repeated that center design in shadow hexagons on the four corners of the hexagon rings. These contrasted the flower shapes with straight lines radiating out of the center.  The background filler mimics the swirls in the centers of the hexagon flowers and complements and gives the eye a place to rest.  With simple, thought out designs, the overall look of the quilting is very cohesive and creates a great finished piece!

Susan's Exclamation Quilt for Swirly Girls Design

Here is a custom quilting job that I fall in love with every time I see it.  This quilt is one of a series that I completed for Swirly Girls Design.  I used different quilting motifs for each of the color changes in the quilt and created a separate design pattern in the white areas of the quilt.  It almost makes it look like a modern flower or wedding ring pattern.  I can't stop looking at the pictures!

Laura's Nine Patch

This is Laura's quilt and I used an all over pattern that alternated between serpentine lines and wishbones. I love this design! It's so versatile!

Sweet Summertime - Swirly Girls Design

Next up for the Swirly Girls Design is this adorable summer themed quilt with some cross stitch accents.  I used two different custom border designs in the white border surrounding the smaller half square triangle blocks.  For the larger colored blocks, I used two different flower motifs that mimicked the flowers in the fabric.  I also outlined the cross stitch blocks to highlight the adorable little summer scenes.  The outside border got a simple wavy design to help highlight the fabric itself.  Turned out adorable!!
