Quilt Reveal: Where Horses Dream Under Endless Sky from High Road Quilter

It's time for another Project Quilting Reveal! This week, the challenge is to:

Take inspiration from the colors of the sky, but exclude or use less than 10% of the usual blue.

I decided to use my Derwent Inktense pencils (affiliate link) to color the sky so I found a relatively plain background. I knew it would need something in the foreground for interest and decided to find a horse pattern to applique on my quilt. I haven't ever used a horse and I am not so sure why I was intimidated by using a horse. Maybe because ...

Quilt Reveal: Haven of Harmony from High Road Quilter

I made my first quilt of the year for the first Project Quilting challenge. Project Quilting is a challenge that was started years ago by Kim Lapacek of Persimmon Dreams. It is inspired by Project Runway challenges.

Every other week for the first three months of the year, Kim's friend, Tricia Franklin, posts a theme. Quilters then make quilts based on this theme. The quilt cannot be started before the challenge is posted, and must be finished by the deadline, which is only one week later.

Where there is righteousness in the heart, there is beauty in the character ...

Schoolhouse Quilt from Night Owl Quilting

This lovely Schoolhouse quilt was brought to me by Angela. The top was pieced by Angela's dear friend Anne who has passed away. Angela requested custom quilting as she felt that is how Anne would have finished it. Anne and Angela's husband were friends and both in the Education field so this quilt holds an extra special meaning to both of them.

I sent Angela a number of quilting suggestions for the borders and she immediately loved the outer echo curve border, and the simple quilting in the HST border. We went back and forth on the inner ...

Another retreat from Wendy's Quilts and More

Yes, I'm going on another retreat this weekend. This time it's for quilting. I wasn't intending to go, but someone has had to pull out, and her place was up for grabs.

As I said last week, it's winter here, and wet and cold, so I'd just be quilting at home all weekend anyway. This way I get to do it with friends and see all the exciting things that they are making.

I'm not even sure what do at retreat yet. Often I just take hand sewing because I can't be bothered ...

Little Houses Quilt from Wendy's Quilts and More

I was flicking through Kaffe Fassett's "Kaleidoscope of Quilts" at my mum's house over Easter, and I saw the Little Boxes Quilt. I liked the way that the maker had chosen stripy fabrics for some of the houses, and I started thinking about what I could use to make something similar in a different colour way. Here's the photo from the book:

Then I remembered the beautiful Kaffe wovens I'd bought from a guild member at our January sales day.

As soon as I returned to Wellington, I dug out the wovens and started adding some ...
