Here are some pics of a customer's quilt that I recently finished quilting for them. I did an all over swirling quilting pattern in a purple thread, I think it turned out really nice. Lots of color in this quilt, has kind of a Halloween vibe to it.

Here are some pics of a customer's quilt that I recently finished quilting for her. It's a Quilt of Valor that she made for a family member. It's actually two sided with a panel of eagles on one side and a pieced pattern on the other side. I quilted the panel of eagles with custom quilting to accentuate the design, which then shows up on the back side as well.

Here's a couple of photos of a customer's quilt that I recently finished for her, doing an all-over pattern on it. Great quilt design and colors she used for this.

Here are some pics of a customer's quilt that he recently commissioned us to make for him. The bed frame had belonged to his mother who has passed away, and he had it refinished and then we made the quilt to go on it. His mother was a quilter as well, so we embroidered her initials in a heart in the corner of the quilt as a nod to her quilting legacy. Thanks for letting us work on this project for you, Brad! I think your mom would really like the end result of it all!

Here are some pics of a customer's quilt that I finished for her this afternoon using an all-over quilting design. She made the quilt top using a pattern that has a traditional churn dash block design but made in varying sizes and placement to give it a more modern look. Very pretty quilt!

Here are some photos of a customer's quilt that I finished quilting for her this morning doing an all-over quilting pattern. If you look closely, you'll see that there are many, many small star blocks that she pieced when making this. Each of those star blocks are 3" square, so very intricate piecing. The quilt measures 96" x 96", so is a pretty large quilt.




Out with the old, and in with the new. Here are some photos of my new longarm quilting machine that arrived last week. It's a Gammill Vision 2.0 with 26" throat on a 12' frame. It's stitch regulated, tablet controlled, and is like a spaceship compared to my previous machine. My old machine was a Gammill as well, but was an 18" non-stitch-regulated machine on a 10' frame. Both the old and new machines are "manual" machines, meaning that I drive them both and create the quilting design, i.e., there's not a computer moving the machine and creating the quilting. So far, I'm loving it, this is a really nice ride.
