Back to My Customers

After spending three weeks quilting almost 20 quilts for the Lockyer Valley Floods I have got back to customer quilts.


The these two quilts are for young children and I had a lot of fun playing with them.  The first one the customer asked for flowers, bugs and garden things.  She is yet to applique dragonflies over the top.
The second quilt top is made from a panel from the Storybook "The Very Hungry Caterpillar".  I used to recite this book to my own children so I enjoyed now putting a quilt to the story.  I didn't put it one apple, two pears etc but I was tempted!  Of course it had to have beautiful butterflies somewhere in the quilting along with the leaves the big,fat caterpillar ate.

55555 Quilting Special

As I will be celebrating a double same digit Birthday this year I decided to give a birthday gift to all my customers.

For 5 months I will quilt any quilt up to 55"x 55" for only $55 using one of Five patterns.

More information and close ups of the patterns can be found at 55555quilting.blogspot.com







I have been using these same patterns to quilt numerous tops that I have received from Toowoomba Quilters, Sew Creative Community Quilters and Queensland Quilters that will be given to individuals that were affected by the recent flooding in the Lockyer Valley and Burnett River Areas.
