Amy's DS quilt...

Yes, she had me at Denyse Schmidt! 
Amy, from Idaho, made this beautiful quilt for her mom.
 
 
She used the DS Chicopee line of fabrics. 
 
 
Amy asked me to quilt pretty flowers and loops all over - it's so feminine.
 
 
This backing piece is one of my favorite pieces from this line.
 
 
Amy also chose wool batting - it's incredibly soft and drapes beautifully and is a bit puffy.
 
 
It looks like stars floating in clouds - who wouldn't love this quilt?
Beautiful job, Amy!

Clover and Violet quilt

Jennie, the daughter half of Clover and Violet, recently sent me a quilt to be quilted.
It completely depicts the colors of clover and violets!
She and her mom create the most beautiful hand embroidery designs.
Here are a few photos of a baby quilt I quilted for them:
 
 
So springy!
 
 
Flowers, butterflies - makes me happy!
 
 
This label is among the other embroidered blocks on the front of the quilt - precious!
 
 
Embroidery adds so much to quilts. 
I'm seeing it more and more these days.
 
 
Jenny wanted flowers quilted all over the quilt...
 
 
LOVE the swag!
Perfect stitches!
 
 
Each block is stitched in the ditch (outlined) with quilting.
 
 
I had so much fun creating fluri-ness!
 
 
Beautiful little quilt! 
Thank you, Jennie, for letting me add my flowers to your "Garden Steps".
 
 
Are any of you working on floral quilts or embroidery?
