Q is for Quilting...

I finally got around to taking a couple of quilt tops to my quilter this week. I use Dixie Decker here in Wichita and she is A-Mazing! Her website is, Quilts to Remember. I highly recommend her!

First, is a toddler quilt I had finished up quite awhile ago, we chose a whimsical flower quilting pattern, it compliments the fabric SOO good! 

Second, is my Sampler Quilt I've been working on since November. This was part of Moose On The Porch's Layer Cake Quilt Along. I'm super excited with how it turned out and can't wait to snuggle up with it this winter!
Here is a partial view of the quilting. We chose a paisley quilt pattern to mimic the paisley's throughout the fabrics. It's quite sensational!
Currently, I am working on a small wall hanging using 4 different batik prints. I also purchased a quilt kit from Fat Quarter Shop for a Christmas gift, I guess I should get started soon considering it's only a few months away!

Finish and WIP

HEY! I finished up the binding on my Jelly Roll Quilt last weekend. Put it through the wash and dryer and now it's absolutely perfect! I do believe it belongs in a cute little girls room though. I might just have to stash it away for a gift sometime. We'll see!

Here is a close up of the quilting. I had it done by Dixie Decker here in Wichita. It's an all over feather design, I think she did great and it makes the quilt really pop.

On another note, I made a "To Do" list while sitting in a 4 hour meeting yesterday. (Don't judge, I had to stay awake somehow.) I have 12 current "work in process" right at the moment. Scary once you list them all out isn't it! None of them are huge undertakings so I set my goal for all to be finished before Jan 1st. I'll definetly keep you all posted on that progress! I'm thinking my machine and I will either be best buds or dreaded enemies before it's all said and done. lol.

P.S. I signed up to be part of the next quilt along hosted by Moose on the Porch. This time we are using a layer cake instead of a Jelly Roll. Should be a great time!

Jelly Rollin' in style...

Okay sorry about the Title, I know, I know, it's silly. Oh well, I'm just excited is all! I just wanted to write something up real quick to show off my finished Jelly Roll Quilt Along Top(picture below). This quilt along was hosted by Konda Luckau over at Moose on the Porch Quilts. It's been a ton of fun and I have been thoroughly enjoying seeing everyone's finished tops in the flickr group! Right now, I am currently waiting on the backing fabric to arrive in the mailbox and as soon as it does you can bet I'll be quilting this cute lil puppy up real fast!
