Kayak on the Lake and the Triple Irish Chain.
My dd is getting the first--she wanted unsymmetrical swirls to represent paddles dipping in the water. I think Jill found the perfect pattern for that. For the Triple, I wanted calm--and nothing is more calming than the outdoors/nature to me, so I picked a leaves design, but asked her to leave out all the quilting inside the leaves so nothing was tight. She knows what I like-no close quilting. I love it. Binding for Kayak will match the border. I'm undecided on the Triple... there's really only a few choices: blue or green. :roll: Thanks for looking. Little blurry--taken at night in low light. [ATTACH=CONFIG]27636[/ATTACH] Ooops--I should have removed the thread and lint. [ATTACH=CONFIG]27637[/ATTACH] Cool, eh? [ATTACH=CONFIG]27638[/ATTACH] Nine flannels make the back (dd always requests flannel backs). [ATTACH=CONFIG]27672[/ATTACH] |
Pretty, pretty!!!!
|
Love them both! Beautiful!
|
The quilting in your quilts is beautiful!!!
|
They are beautiful!!! You did a great job and I sure they will be treasured.
|
You do the most gorgeous work!
|
I didn't quilt them!! The quilter did!! :-D Her pricing makes it so worth it to not have to do this myself--$144 total for both!
Remember my style? I use paper with a traced on designs and only attempt to mess up baby size tops and wall hangings. :lol: |
Beautiful!!!!
|
They're beautiful- I love the fabric choices in both (probably because they're my favorite color combinations!). You're lucky to find such a great quilter who is so reasonable too!
|
Both great quilts! Wow! Wow! Thanks for sharing! :-D :-D
|
Both gorgeous quilts and what a great deal on the quilting!! :D :D :thumbup:
|
They're both so beautiful! I bet your DD is just going to love her's! 'Kayak on the Lake' - don't you all kayak as a family? What a wonderful reminder of good times for her! :) :)
|
Karla, they are both gorgeous - love the blues and greens, adore the quilting - well done, keep that great long-armer busy :)

My husband has a kayak, and I have two--one for when he's with me (longer and heavier) and one for when I paddle alone (shorter and lighter :wink: ). Rachel has come with us and used one of mine. She was with us the day I took photos for some research for this top. I posted them last year. She said she doesn't need the quilt now because she has at least three already in her house at college and two home, so I said I'll save it for when she's ready. It has a home. :-D |
I remember those photos you posted! Makes this one extra special! :)
|
Karla, those are both so beautiful!! But my favorite is still the chain. I like it almost as much as the you-know-what!
|
Both quilts are so pretty Karla!! You have a great eye for color!!!
|
Oh my those are beautiful. I love the quilts and she did an awesome job on the quilting.
|
Beautiful! I've been wondering how I will quilt my TIC when I finally get it done, and this gives me some great ideas. Thank you for sharing.
|
Karla I love how they both turned out....kyacks on the lake is one of my most favorite quilts ever!!
|
I love them both!
What is the name of the second quilt pattern? |

Gorgeous!
|
And you wonder if you should enter a quilting contest in the near future?!! I loved both those tops when you posted them awhile back but the quilting just adds so much to them! I LOVE those swirls and love how she used several different types of leaves in the Irish Chain. Gorgeous work!
