CHURNING OUT SOME WONKY!

I have a trunk show available for groups, guilds called

"Let's Get WONKY"

The idea is to take a traditional quilt block

and make it wonky.

That's the idea here and I used

Missouri Star, Freestyle Churn dash tutorial

I had a Layer Cake and needed to give 

this a try.

I love the result!

The backing uses same concept, my design, on a larger scale.

I gave it to Kim Hensley of

Happily Every Quilting.

We decided on the E2E Design WHITESPACE!

It's just perfect for this one.

Take a closer peek at it.

Here's the back and the thread color 

was also perfect.

I made a scrappy binding using the

two prints/colors on the quilt back.

Don't forget to label your quilts!

My fav part of making a quilt is hand stitching down the binding.

It's taken me years to get the pretty mitre corners.

The wonky churn dash looks dashing on my sofa.

The "Gordon Seeds" pillow matches perfectly!

And the biggest POSER is at it again!

BEACHY CARDS

These cards were made at the beach

while I was on vacation in October.

I didn't have room to take a sewing machine

so I decided to make all occasion cards.

I get all the pieces and parts prepared before

I go to my vacation.  Then I put them all together 

when I have down time.

 I did find a Flamingo!

And some seashells

Enjoy the variety!

 

FLYIN HIGH WITH A GAGGLE OF GEESE

I used to despise making FG quilts.

That is til this one.

Its Twisted Geese pattern by Zen Chic.

Several years ago Kim Hensley gave me the

pattern and a Layer Cake to make this quilt.

It didn't take too long to make.

AND I didn't cut off too many geese noses!

I also had some yardage in my stash to make the backing.

A great black and gray stripe for the binding, also in my stash.

A fall day presented a great photo op

I love how this gaggle of geese hangs in the dining room

and here's my big GOOSE GORDON

under the quilt for his obligatory photo.

It's a tradition.
