Contemporary Quilt

Second Saturday Show and Tell:
Susan finished this beautiful quilt with a contemporary flavor.

Customize a Tote

Julie’s all ready for her next big trip with her “Professional Tote Bag”. It’s perfect with zippered compartments for her passport and iPad, side pockets for water bottles, and plenty of inside pockets for general “stuff”. Julie even added a fob inside to keep track of her keys! Monogramming on the front gives this bag a personal touch.

Garden Steps - a la London...Let the Games begin

Susan was looking for a pattern to showcase some great fabric from London and found the pattern “Big Easy”. The quilt turned out so cute; we know her daughter is going to love it!

Sentimental Sewing

Colleen made this Double Wedding Ring quilt for her daughter’s wedding in August. It’s made out of all her daughter’s riding shirts. Those of you who have daughters who love horses (like I do!) will understand how special this quilt is!

A Shining Star

We love star quilts here at Little Quilts. Can you believe Janice paper-pieced this beauty?

Gorgeous Log Cabin in a unique setting

Every time Kathy comes to Atlanta from Florida she brings a beautiful quilt to show us. You can almost smell the ocean when you look at this batik beauty!

Sudoku and quilting..Who knew?

Play Sudoku with your quilt blocks like Madelyn did and come up with a great lap quilt.  Nine patches with colors that symbolize numbers.  The pattern is from a book called Sudoku Quilts by Barbara Hershey.

Oh me, Oh my!!!

Former staff member, Nancy, was in town for the week-end and stopped by to pick out the perfect backing fabric for this quilt she appliquéd and pieced from a pattern by Terri Clothier Thompson. What a great quilt!

June Second Saturday Sampler Show and Tell

I wonder what goodies there were this Saturday at the Show and Tell.  I didn't get there but I will post the show and tell soon.
Here are the July beauties.
Tina finished her six inch blocks for the 2011 Sat. Sampler. Love these little blocks.

Susan calls this quilt “ Reverse Square”. Nice job, Susan.

Nicole was super busy this month. She brought in three quilts to show.

“Raegan’s Quilt” which is the Ohio Star block repeated set block to block. Someone will be happy to own this one.  “Blakes Quilt” is a scrappy Log Cabin that Mary Ellen tried to claim for her grandson.   “Ladybug Picnic” is for Sarah. It is a split 9-Patch with freehand appliqué lady bugs. How cute is this. I’m sure Sarah will love it.

Jenny took the Professional Tote class with Jackie and made this great bag. Wish you could all see it. We fell in love with it.

More Second Saturday Sampler Show and Tell

Sandy has the first row of a star quilt she’s making for her grandson finished. He’s going into the Marines just as soon as high school graduation is over.

Michele made this Minkie Row Quilt for her daughter. It was a quilt as you go project and features Minkie on both the front and the back – so cuddly!
