Three for Patrice from Night Owl Quilting


Patrice recently sent three lovely quilts for me to work on.  First up is the beautiful king size BQ quilt that is going to stay in her bedroom.  Patrice selected the Flirtatious pantograph and black thread for the quilting.  The BQ pattern from Maple Island Quilts is just perfect for showcasing a special fabric.






She other two quilts are for Patrice's grandsons.  I love how she made them just a little bit different with her backing choices.


The quilt with the green backing received the Raindrops pantograph.


The blue backing received the Windswept pantgraph.

Dianne's Quick Quarter from Night Owl Quilting

Pink Batiks and a Pretty Christmas Throw from Night Owl Quilting



Sherry sent this lovely pink themed batik quilt.  She told me she just cut some squares and rectangles from her stash and arranged them until she was happy. Sherry is stash busting and decided to tackle the pink pile this time.  Simple and lovely!


Sherry selected the Lilac pantograph that is becoming a  favorite around here.







Next up is a lovely Christmas quilt made by Dianne. She left the pantogaph selection up to me, and I added the "Windswept" pantograph.  Sometimes I see wind and sometimes I see ribbons.

A Pair of Seahorse Quilts and a Newfoundland Theme from Night Owl Quilting


Reneta made this pair of Watercolor Seahorse quilts for her sister.  Last year I quilted Reneta's first Seahorse quilt (that you can see here), and Reneta's sister loved it so much that she asked Reneta to make a pair for her.  This time around they got a border to make them more bedsized, and by request, I repeated the custom quilting plan I used before.










Reneta made this quilt from a special fat quarter pack that she picked up in Newfoundland that highlights so many special Newfoundland themes - blueberries, boats, moose, puffins, sea glass and of course the ...
