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.
Find the FREE patterns on The Inbox Jaunt’s Paper Piecing Page HERE
More patterns are available at Peggy’s website, Wisconsin Quilting.
ANNE BULLOCK’S HERON
Peggy created The Morning Heron from one of my Silent Sunday photos.
Peggy created this pattern from the photo:
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!
THANK YOU
Thanks you Peggy for supplying the patterns.
Thank you Anne and Barbara for sharing your photos!
Congratulations on a job well done!

I’m inspired are YOU? I may take up paper piecing after all…
If you are like me….and need a little help with paper piecing… you might like Carol Doak’s Craftsy class, Mastering Foundations of Paper Piecing
What about YOU?
Do you do paper piecing?
Have you made any of Peggy’s designs?
We’d LOVE to hear!

For my friend I used to make a beautiful “Umbrella”, whose design I got from Peggy Aare. Great sewing. I will definitely sew another Umbrella for me

They are gorgeous! I have made blocks with paper piecing but have never designed one from a picture. I may have to add that to my list of things to try.
Lynn
Beautiful work.
Amy
I got hooked on paper piecing after I took a class with Carol Doak. She’s an awesome teacher and a genuinely nice person. If you get the opportunity, I recommend any class she is teaching.
Elise
I have done paper piecing before, but never from a photo. So II’m curios about That missing step above… what tools/computer program was used to create each pattern above. Thanks!
Susan A
Thanks for the inspiring quilts
I love to paper piece…I especially liked the photo showing how the heron picture was simplified from the photo…thanks
Pat
Love the wallpaper design – very creative! – and the fabric extending beyond the borders. Also love the quilting behind the heron. It’s great to see how the quilting does enhance the work. Thank you for sharing and inspiring all of us.

I agree entirely. Aren’t these ladies so talented?
Sue H
I love paper piecing. I enjoy the freezer paper method so there is no paper to tear off after sewing. PLUS you can reuse the pattern!
Very smart way she enhanced the girl sewing — love the wall paper design! I noticed it before you pointed it out! Lol! I will certainly check out Peggy’s designs!

They are both beautiful and a great example of texture with quilting.
Donna
Both are great, but Girl Sewing has boggled my mind by how perfect a capture this quilt is of the original artist’s picture. Congratulations Barbara and Ann.

Both quilts are beautiful! Well done ladies!!

I love paper piecing also. The quilts are great. I liked the crane on the beach the most.
Trish Herbers
I love paper piecing, and Carol Doak’s class explains it so well! Thanks for the inspiration
Diana Lassahn
I do paper piece and love Carol Doak’s patterns. I started out very simply doing paper pieced patterns from Quilter’s Newsletter. They did a whole series for about a year. I recently taught the members of my guild by using a simply pattern (only 6 pieces) that I created – a landscape/mountain quilt. I added quilting and embroidery.
