Minecraft Quilt #83

today we are looking at Vicki's 

quilt...she has made this one for 

her son ...master J 

Like most kids that I know 

Master J is into the computer game Minecraft 

so Vicki decided that she was going to make him 

a quilt for his bed...Master J has some in put to 

the making of the quilt what was ok to go into it 

and what was not...this was a great quilt for Vicki to 

make as she is still fairly new to the world of quilting :) 

she has done such a wonderful job..

we used a variegated green thread and 

an all over quilting pattern called 

"cool Beans" 

we used a bright backing 

with the same green variegated thread so 

Master J can flip the quilt over if so 

chooses :) :) 

can't wait to see the pictures of the finished 

quilt in pride of place in

Needed some TLC Quilt #82

So have you ever had one of those quilts that 

have been love to within an inch of its life 

the quilt we are looking at today 

Belongs to Jill...

Jill contacted me to ask if i would be able 

to help her save her much loved 

quilt...

after some emails and PM's back and forth 

we got under way 

Jill mailed her quilt to me

and I started to unpick the old quilting 

and take the old binding off 

we decided that stippling would be the best option 

I used a cream cotton and it blended really well 

then i was on the hunt for binding fabric 

to match or similar to the one that was on 

it originally ...YaY i found some...

after it was quilted we put a label on 

the back to tell its story 

as this quilt was originally purchase for Jill 

as a welcome to the world gift 28 yrs ago 

we put this information on the label 

I am sure that there will be soooo many more years 

to come of snuggle and cuddles under this gorgeous 

gift and now will be able to pass it on the the 

next generation 

I was very happy to help Jill with her 

much loved Teddy Bear Quilt

Busy Busy Busy Quilt #79

Wow I can't believe how quick the 

weeks fly by...

it has been a while since i have blogged the 

quilts that i have been working on 

so here we are the middle of September already 

and quilts are still coming in thick and fast 

so I have been very busy quilting and not much blogging 

today we are looking at Kelly's Quilt that she 

asked me to make for her Son 

Baby H...it as has been in the works for some time 

but I got there in the end...problem was that i had a few quilts in 

front of this one 

but here are the pictures of what we have done for 

Kelly...and I am sure there will be many years of 

snuggles under this gorgeous 1 of a kind

Handmade custom quilt :) :)

Another Mystery Quilt #78

As some of you may or may not know 

we have a weekly Mystery Quilt 

Club here at Darvanalee 

the members of this group 

are all members of a Facebook Group 

call "Just Us Quilters"

the have been running Mystery Quilts 

all year...so we decided to do them 

together rather than sitting at home 

by ourselves, there are 5 of us that do this

each Thursday :) 

this quilt that we are looking at today 

belongs to Gail from Wondai 

this was the second one that the 

group has done...

I love the colours in  this quilt 

although Gail wasn't sure...

the Quilting was was a joint effort...

Gail came and used Darvanalee's Machine 

as she wanted the pattern I had and her machine 

is a lot smaller than mine...

and this pattern was not going to stitch out for her 

we used a Yellow Varigated thread on the top and back of the quilt 

we also went for something completely differnt 

and used a Blue backing 

as you can see the backing with the yellow cotton 

is very striking ...bonus 2 quilt in one 

The end result is stunning :) :) 

I am off to quilt away the day

10 Min Block Quilt #77

a few months back we ran a class 

for the 10 min Block 

for our Beginners :) 

the Quilt we are looking at today 

belongs to Kathy...

Kathy has only just come to the world of 

Patchwork and Quilting 

but has very much fallen in love

with the hobby 

Kathy decided that she wanted to make a bigger 

quilt for her project 

Most of the other students went 

for smaller quilts 

and with her left over fabrics

she decided to do some 

matching pillow slips 

but using another technique 

called crazy patch 

we used an all over quilting pattern 

flower and stipple 

and used a cream cotton

it is very striking and I just love these fabrics :) 

I am off to my next quilt
