I am in the quilting phase of mission 31. I am stippling the quilts and have found that depending on the size of my stipple I can get them done in 1-2 hours each so I may actually get them done by Friday! Yay! I quilted five tonight. 8 more to go! Anyways here the rest of the tops.

I posted these earlier

All your quilts are so pretty. You've done a great job.

What beautiful quilts. I admire you for doing so many with triangles or diamonds in them. I steer away from them myself. They are all beautiful! Well done. I also do meandering or stippling on most of my quilts, and I like that just as much as custom quilting. When I used to do quilting for others meandering was usually what they requested I do on their quilts.

Awesome job!!! Could you tell me the pattern name of the last quilt (the one with the black background)? Thanks for sharing...

Thank you. That pattern is "Windswept". You can find it on etsy. I modified it a tad to change from the original design. It is made using the drunkards path block. Was a fun quilt to make.

I don't mine the triangles and diamonds, sometimes. Some of these played well together, some of them did not. Its a learning curve. I learning while making these quilts that there were probably some places where I should have iron opened the seams but by the time I realized it I was too far along to turn back. This information is very encouraging to me because I sometimes feel that I overuse the stippling design on my quilts. I like to do it because its fast and easy and my quilts aren't made for show but for use. I love so many other designs that I see but I get too afraid that if I do too much "nice" quilting that the quilt will not be used. I know of too many now that are loved in the closet so they wont get ruined. Thank you for your kind and encouraging words.

Wow, all are gorgeous quilts! I am in love with the scrappy red one! Is there a name/pattern for that design please?

Thank you for your compliments. I had to do some digging but I was able to find where I got this block from. The block is from a book called "5,500 Quilt Block Designs", it is block 2675 - called Spinning Star. I have never seen a pattern for it anywhere. I used my quilt program to recreate the block in the book to layout the block and quilt to the size I wanted. Mine has a 2" center square, 4 sub-squares that measure 5 x 7 to finish the overall block size at 12". I modified some of the blocks to create the cross in the center of the quilt. It is kind of hard to see in the photo as the blue I used in this quilt is very light. If you would like some help with this block, send me a PM and I will help you out in any way I can.

Wow! beautiful work!! I hope you are keeping some of these for yourself. They are all explosive in presentation. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Everyone is just beautiful! What wonderful gifts. I appreciate your description of the red and white pattern. If it’s too much, could you also give us the name of #1 and #3 pattern? Thank you and have a nice Christmas.

They all turned out beautifully. I mainly do FMQ because I love it and love doing it.

SusieQOH 01-02-2022 07:20 AM

Wow, what beautiful quilts! I just looked at your other post as well. Bravo!

Your quilts are all really beautiful. I wonder do you happen to remember what the fabric you used in the black and gray quilt are? I am making quilts for boys and that’s the predominant color I’m using with an accent. Love the texture in those fabrics.

HI Ariannaquilts - They are from the Michael Miller Coco Coco quilts. Looks like fabric.com has some available on their website. I used Dove Blue, Slate & Smoke in my quilt because they played well with the dragonfly fabric I used in that quilt.

HI Maureen, Pattern #1 and #2 (turned on point) were both made with the Maltese Star block. And pattern #3 was a modified version of the 54-40 Block. I used a nine patch in the corners (instead of a four patch) with a modified corner block to create the pinwheels. I can help you will the pattern if you'd like. PM me anytime.
