Hot Off the Machine.....several weeks ago!

As usual, I'm behind on posting pictures of some of the quilts I have machine quilted. In this post, I want to share three quilts that I'm sure will be shown in the Gun Barrel Quilter's Guild Quilt Show in April.

The first is a design created by my mom using the Circle of Nine setting. Her fan quilt is sure to be a hit at the GBQG Quilt Show...this year's theme is "Quilting is FANtastic." Her hand appliqued fans have a three-dimensional look about them. I think the choice of fabric colors helps achieve this effect.

I love this texture!

Can't have too many feathers!

Bunnies!! And these are the cutest bunnies ever! Bernice used a wide variety of fabrics on these hand appliqued bunnies. That's what gives them their character. I don't know the plans she has for this quilt, but I think any child would fall in love with it instantly.

Aren't they too cute?

Had to have feathers, of course.

These little bunnies got the carrot!

Bernice made this quilt also. It was a panel with coordinating border fabrics. It has a real  nostalgic feel to it. I wanted to quilt it so that you would not be able to tell if it was all panel or pieced. I was well pleased with the outcome. I hope she will be too!

Faux crosshatching in plaid border really added texture.

Thanks ladies, for allowing me to quilt on your works of art!
