Machine Quilting and Paper Piecing

April 6, 2017
Girl Sewing, Paper Pieced Pattern

Good Morning, Quilters!

Today, I am pleased to highlight two quilts made by readers of The Inbox Jaunt.

Barbara Dahl and Anne Bullock shared photos of their quilts stitched from the patterns offered  by designer,  Peggy Aare.

Peggy is an amazing designer and has shared several of her patterns to our readers.

More patterns are available at Peggy’s website, Wisconsin Quilting.

THE HAMMERSHOI GIRL
Peggy used one of our Seamstresses in Fine Art –by Wilhelm Hammershoi to create The Girl Sewing pattern.

BARBARA DAHL’S GIRL SEWING
Barbara Dahl used Peggy’s pattern and added her own twist–she attached a piece of fabric to create a 3D effect.  Barbara’s piecing is meticulous!
The quilting was done by Barbara’s friend and professional LAQ, Tracey Fisher.
Isn’t her quilting fabulous?  I love how the machine quilting enhances this quilt!  She created a wallpaper background and flowing line for her dress.

And Anne Bullock used the pattern to piece and quilt this fabulous quilt!

Anne’s choice of fabrics is lovely–and again, the quilting really enhances the quilt!
