Another beautiful quilt made by Sandi. I used a neutral grey glide thread and E2E design Tickle Too
Bevy of Birds
Chris’s Quilt
I love the simplicity of the Chandelier quilt/block. It was quilted with white glide thread and “Tickle Too” all over design.
CQA 2023
I am so incredibly honoured to have 2 art quilts juried into this year’s show. Unfortunately we cannot post pictures of our pieces until after the Judging takes place on June 7th.
New Charity Quilt
Our guild makes baby and children’s quilts and donates them to a local women’s shelter. This is my latest donation. I wanted something colourful and cheerful. I hope the child who gets it feels comforted by it.
Quilts of Valour
I really enjoyed quilting this top. I just let my imagination run wild and the thread flow.
Best of Quilting in Canada
In 2021 I made this art quilt of Lucy (Edmonton Valley Zoo) and I entered it into the Canadian Quilters Association (CQA) national juried show. I was thrilled to learn that it was juried into the 2021 CQA Show. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, the in-person show was cancelled and replaced with a virtual show so I never got the opportunity to see it hang on the show floor.
This summer I received at email from CQA informing me that they were compiling a selection of juried entries into a “Best of Quilting in Canada”collection and they wanted to include my piece. The quilts would be exhibited in the New England Quilt Museum (NEQM) in Lowell, Massachusetts, from January 17 to May 9, 2023. Needless to say, I was shocked and thrilled.
All of the selected quilts are also featured in the 2023 spring edition of Canadian Quilters Magazine.
Quilt for Berners
I was asked by the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of Canada if I would be willing to make a quilt that they could raffle off at their National Specialty Show in Calgary at the end of the month. This is what I made for them. I hope that they are able to raise a few dollars for their club. Of course I had to include a picture of my Bernese Mountain Dog Spirit with the quilt.
Here Fishy Fishy
I just love this colourful fish themed quilt that I recently finished for a new client. She chose edge-to-edge design WaterWorld and I think it complements it beautifully.
Rosie-Roo
I had a lot of fun working on this art quilt of the beautiful Rosie-Roo, a friend’s Cane Carso. For the extensive thread painting I used a large assortment of Glide and some InvisaFil thread. I also incorporated a variegated thread on the forehead and torso.
Batik Beauty
Shirley made this colourful batik quilt for her sister. Her sister loves bright colours and picked all the fabrics herself. Shirley gave me free rein to quilt it as I please. I did a lot of dense quilting around the appliqué and quilted each border differently.
