My friend, Carol - from Montana, is always creating
such fun quilts.
She has some pretty serious skills when it comes
to quilt making.
Here are a few lovelies she recently made...
This is one of my favorites - I especially love the
low volume backgrounds.
I straight lined her "X's" and swirled the background.
I believe all quilts look fabulous with a black 'n white
stripe binding.
Carol made an entire quilt out of these blocks - "Nesting Churn-dash" - this is a pillow she made to go with it.
Churn-dash is my favorite block - I was tempted to
keep this pillow...
I wish I had a better photo of this little quilt.
She used a border print for both sides of
these very cool pieced blocks.
Here is the right side of the border print - I love it!
I quilted wavy lines with a "wood knot" every so often through the border print.
LOVE these chickens!
Carol said this is one of her favorite quilts.
I can see why.
I absolutely love this backing.
I need at least a bolt of it!
You can get it from Hawthorne Threads.
It's from the Pastel Thrift line here.
I think this sweet little boxy quilt is so sweet - prints are
from Sweetwater.
I quilted a single wavy line from edge to edge.
Carol uses the best backings on her quilts, too.
I still love a masculine woven fabric quilt.
Carol made this one for her son-in-law.
It's a very simple quilt and yet so appealing.
I cross-hatched the entire quilt.
I quilted "wish bones" in the outer border.
Carol used a luscious flannel for the backing.
Carol - you're an amazing quilter and a wonderful friend.
I only wish I could keep up with you and your quilts!
Thanks for always trusting me with your beauties.
Carol is certainly one busy quilter, making you a busy quilter, too! They are all wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLove these quilts and what a sense of color Carol has - love the understated color choices. That hen quilt maybe my favorite (if I could choose lol) and churn dash is my favorite block too - just something about it :)
ReplyDeleteLove all these quilts, and the quilting you did on them looks great too!
