Happy Halfoween! (halfway to Halloween)

I’ve been working a little bit on my super scrappy Ghost Party Quilt:

With six of the nine ghosts completed I’m gonna take a break - but I hope to get this done in time to get it quilted before October.

Pattern: Ghost Party Quilt by woollypetals

Another Christmas quilt - this one completed! It’s been awhile since I’ve done straightforward patchwork - or whatever it's called when you sew just squares together. I found it relaxing.

I also haven't machine quilted anything myself in awhile (preferring to hand quilt, not quilt, or pay someone to longarm). For this one, I cut some white flannel smaller than the top, then "stitched in the ditch" (on the existing seams) to attach it, then I did a bagged out finish (I've read that it's called that when you sew the top and backing together around the edges, leaving an opening, then turn it right sides out, instead of doing a binding).

So it's quilted with flannel as a batting, and it's backed with the red flannel you see here. I like it, as it's sort of heavy, but also more flexible than lofty batting feels to me.

Also, I want to note that I now have some cute satin tags that I bought from EverEmblem on Etsy and they work really well for tagging my quilts (seen at the bottom of the finished pic).

Pattern: Just 6" squares Fabric: Holiday/Christmas/winter fabrics I pulled from my stash, including Jolly Darlings (by Ruby Star Society), Twas (from Riley Blake designs), candy cane stripe fabric from JoAnn, and others

Really pleased with this finished quilt top after doing another great workshop.

Playing with colour and transparency.

Muted Rainbow Baby Quilt

I loved working on this beautiful custom quilt for a family who are expecting a rainbow baby. The custom embroidery on back was very personal for them, reminding them that miracles can happen after loss.

This quilt!!! My client @ellencam23 knocked it out of the park! We did an interesting batting combo black @hobbsbatting 80/20 with @quiltersdream 100%cotton white on top. It worked amazing! I think she liked it so much it might have been kept instead of gifted 😂. Thanks Ellen for finding me on IG and mailing your project. I enjoyed working with you! #myclientsarethebest #innovamachine #rulerwork #modernquilt #glidethread #quiltsofinstagram #lisascreativequilting (at LisasCreativeQuilting.com) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdiszq5ufIQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Look how cute this polar bear from our Zootropolis book is on a jeans jacket. We thought her kindergartners might get a kick out of it! Crosby is pretty adorable too! 😍 In the background is our new Damsel Drive quilt! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #damseldrive #zootropolisquilt #sassafraslane #crosbywoof #polarbear #polarbearjacket #backyardphotoshoot #newpattern #sewtherainbow #quilt #customquilting #longarmquilting #modernquilt #quiltsofinstagram (at Kirkland, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUDYXngvDv3/?utm_medium=tumblr

Let the appliqué begin! Quilting makes me realize that I should have paid more attention in geometry and math, ESPECIALLY if I’m going to design my own Cathedral mandala quilt! Cutting a circle into 10 equal parts was a feat.... but when all else fails, YOUTUBE! I’ve been working on this 58”x58” art quilt since 3 AM, and can’t wait to get to appliqué all the pieces now that they are pinned. . . .
