A Fall Vase Quilt
It’s a little bit cooler and the days are shorter, which means it’s time to bring out the Fall Quilt Collection…
This Vase Quilt–(I love small quilts to put on my tables underneath bowls and vases)–is one of my favorites.
It started with an orphan block that I made at a class several years ago.
Do you recognize The String of Pearls from Tuesday’s free motion quilt tutorial?
Here it is combined with a variation of The Welsh Leaf in a very effective border.
I bet YOU have an orphan block or two?!
Just add a bowl of apples and your house will be ready for fall!
Happy Stitching,
Lori

oh my goodness. gorgeous!!
The quilted borders in this are just gorgeous. I love the look of the oak branches with acorns. It’s beautifully done and a perfect choice for both the fall theme of the piece and the colors in the quilt.
Bellissimo!
What is the name of the block pattern? I really like it.
I don’t remember. It is by Edita Sitar
Aren’t small projects the best!!! That one just screams Autumn is the best sense of the season!!! Your quilting suits it perfectly and wonderfully executed…….as always!!!
Beautiful work!
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
Lovely work Lori. Thank you for sharing with us.
Gorgeous work. I really like what you did in the outer border. Great pics.
Beautiful quilt Lori! What type of batting do you use? I love the look!
I often use wool. But that quilt isn’t labeled
BEAUTIFUL ! Thanks for sharing.
It’s fantastic…..

Parabéns ! Seus trabalhos são lindos!
Lori – I love the quilting in the outer border! What a beautiful fall decoration. I love how you have inspired us to use our orphan blocks!
What a great idea, having some small quilts for your tables! I have a dining room table that has a green cloth on it, which is kind of boring, but having some different small table toppers for different seasons is a really good idea. Thanks for posting this! Now I need to get looking at my stash and start something for Fall.
Lori-
Lovely.
The thread really enhances the design.
What weight and kind of thread did you use?
The Fall colors in Stillwater would be an inspiration!
Love the border design, Lori!
Lori, I would love it if you could do a tutorial on your border (Welsh Leaf) on this quilt……..I just love it. Thank you for all you do for us.
Your work is simply amazing!
