What's Happening in the Quilt Studio Today

4/17/2014

I love quilts, all quilts, old and new.  I have been hand quilting this spider web quilt for several months now.  It belongs to a friend of mine:  an unfinished top passed down through the generations.  It was pieced by hand and is in pretty delicate shape in places.  It has been a much slower process than I had hoped, but today I made the turn that showed the end is near-the final row and half!

It was time to give my fingers a little break so I thought I would also share some old friends that reside in my studio now.

I have three quilts in my collection from family members.  This is a crazy quilt that my paternal grandmother made.  There were two of these and they spent a lot of time on my brothers' beds.

My grandmother also made this Dresden Plate quilt, which is very worn from being my cover of choice throughout my childhood.  Once upon a time I learned how to repair old quilts, I need to spend some time and bring this old favorite back to life.  (Which means I need to start keeping an eye out at antique shops and the like for suitable fabric.)

This Sunbonnet Sue was from my husband's family.  I do not know it's history or maker, but somewhere in that family was a talented appliquer.

Back to quilting!
