A recent block in progress for my Badass Bitches quilt. Frida says hey.
#quiltsky
#artadventcalendar
A quilt block with an image of Frida Kahlo peeking through a flower garden (fussy cut square) framed by a black on-point square and more of the floral. This block is called "economy". The background color is yellow, with flowers in primarily pinks, reds and white, with green foliage. Measures 6.5" square.

This quilt is finally finished and off to its new home. The fabrics are Australian Aboriginal, made for the north American market. The Dresden variations I learned in a workshop with #icandy this summer.

My #retro-tetro quilt, pattern by #thegeekybobbin. A gift for my future son in law, and backed with Tetris and Sony hardware prints.
A colorful quilt with a grey background, designed to resemble a Tetris board with colors accurate to the game shapes. A small portion of the edge is turned, exposing the pale blue backing with various Sony hardware images.

More late 19th century indigo and white quilts at the Iowa Quilt Museum.
Thousands of indigo and white triangles. Each pair of triangles makes a 3/4 x 5/8 inch rectangle. Detail of the indigo and white triangles. Indigo and white quilt from the late 19th century. There are indigo stars set in a nine-patch with solid white squares, then those blocks are set in a nine-patch with large solid white squares. There is lovely elaborate quilting in the large white spaces.

The #LabyrinthWalk quilt is finally completed and gifted, and my son loves it! I employed a fair amount of cussing, ripping, and re-sewing and learned about the errors/imprecise choices I make most often. Really pleased with the results but not in a hurry to make another.

This quilt got finished and gifted without taking glamour shots. It was made using Villa Rosa's Twinkle pattern, with added blue borders. I picked up a double charm pack at a yard sale and don't remember the fabric line.

Quilt progress! Got borders on 10 min after the studio was supposed to close, so no time to snap a photo of the completed top. This has a couple of borders that extend/unify the labyrinth, and then a nice 6" finished black border, and will be bound in black. Finish ETA: end of August. #LabyrinthWalk
In-progress quilt using the Labyrinth Walk pattern in shades of grey. The finished quilt will have a wide black border.

Some works in progress.
Dresden plate and accent strip made from aboriginal fabrics. This was a workshop with Candice Grisham. There will be 4 plates like this one, and another 3 or 4 in different designs. The background will be a light tan dot on cream. This pattern is called Labyrinth Walk, made in shades of black, white, and grey. I have all of this block type finished and am working on the second block type. These are some blocks made in a class with Scott Flanagan. Mine is the top row center, and will be a "forest friends" themed quilt for my grandson. It has a medium brown background with twined links of dark grey with blue quail and light green with bears. These are some blocks made in a class with Scott Flanagan. Mine is in the lower left corner and will be a dinosaur themed quilt for my grandson. It has a bright yellow background and a central star made of a dinosaur fabric with teal and green rays.

I had fun making this quilt for my grandson.

Bordered by bright pink fabric and squares of a variety of cat prints that coordinate with the center panel.
