Denyse Schmidt Quilt

I am always excited when I am asked to make a quilt designed by

 Denyse Schmidt.

I think her first fabric collection for Free Spirit Fabrics was Flea Market Fancy.

I had this in my shop back then 

and one of my own favorite quilts is from this fabric line.

I would include a picture of it, but that quilt is in storage right now!!

Her newest quilt is very clever as it is reversible

 and is made from two solids and a 10" square charm pack.

 

This is the top and front side of the quilt.

The machine quilting is very modern and I think it is City Windows.

If you follow Denyse Schmidt Quilts, you know she thinks simple is best.

 This is a close up of the quilting.

Cami Cress offers many modern machine quilting designs.

 

 

I will show you the backing in the next post!!

To Market To Market

In the midst of all of our relocation, I did make several quilts for

 Fall Wholesale Quilt Market in Houston.

I think it was a great distraction!!

This is a quilt designed by Tula Pink in progress.  

Yes, curved seams, but quicker than hand applique!!

And the finished quilt -

Machine quilting by Cami Cress.

One more quilt designed by Tula Pink from the same fabric line 

for Free Spirit Fabrics.

I think this is most interesting 

because of the three different colors of background fabric. 

 I also like the different directions of the flying geese in this quilt.

The choice of linear quilting on this quilt makes a great finish.

Hot diggety dog!!
