I know, too many pictures, but I can't help myself!I finished this larger design as wall hanging and I chose to hang it vertically. The two smaller pieces became pillows. I love to quilt with the walking foot... ... but only on small pieces! And not on too many pieces! So on the second pillow I free motion quilted feathers. I loved to do it, too bad it was a small area! Everything was … [Read more...]

Fun accessory for my sewing machine
Do you have this accessory for your sewing machine? Do you use it? It allows you to stitch at the desired distance from a previous stitching. It's great for echo quilting.

And if you want to add some free motion … [Read more...]

Shadow Trapunto for Quilts with winter theme
Is there a better technique than shadow trapunto to make quilts with winter theme? I think that the designs of my shadow trapunto quilts look like they are drawn in the snow. And it's not only the visual effect, if you could touch them... The quilts below are some of my first shadow trapunto quilts- made in 2008. I think this was my first miniature!
