Good Morning, Quilters!

Welcome to Day 3 of The Inbox Quilt Show!

We start with Mary Griffiths-O Canada! (above)–Great work, Mary!–the Canadian map is definitely more challenging than the USA silhouette!

Next, we have three quilts by Ann Walsh.  Be sure to check out her lovely website Ann Walsh Quilting.  Ann does custom quilting and she has quilts for sale.

I love My Doodle Garden by Kathy Nesler!  Kathy used one of our doodle tutorials as inspiration for this fabulous quilt sampler.

Jacqui Van Meppelen-Scheppink made this fabulous winter quilt–with the Dots-and-Dashes background.  Love how she is displaying it, too!

Judy Purcell used the motifs very creatively for an art portrait–front and back shown here.  Wow!

This beautiful Christmas quilt by Rebecca Shaffer features stack and whack blocks and ornament and poinsettia quilting!  Makes me want to take another whack at this method myself!!!

    Oh my goodness! My Inspiration Bucket is full and runneth over!! Thank you folks, for sharing your fabulous work.

  • Blimey! They’re so good. I think I’m gonna unsubscribe from your blog because I’m feel a little inadequate at the moment ?GREAT JOB LADIES! A lot of talented ladies out there!

  • Marlys in Indiana

    These are so beautiful. Such great quilting. I only hope that some day I will be able to do such beautiful work. I’m too bogged down with quilt making at the time so I haven’t been able to do any of the lessons, but I’m saving them so I can do them once I get all of the quilts constructed that I must get done before Christmas. Got my fingers crossed. These gals have done great work. (Undoubtedly because of a great teacher!)

    Very pretty Lynn! Even prettier in person at the Woodbridge quilters.

    First Swirls & Twirls just knocked me off my chair….Lori, you have motivated so many of us!…… I pray I came become 1/2 as good as your students……..Really I’m just a loss for words????????????Just Beautiful, student, Ladies!!!!!! My sewing room is getting a new ceiling right now or believe me I would be in there trying some of these……

  • I love quilt shows- and this one from the comfort of my home! Thank you to all for sharing- it is inspiring and instructive to see how the quilt motifs are being used. Keep them coming!

  • Laurie Biundo

    All beautiful! How did Rebecca Shaffer make that stack and whack – it’s so perfect! It kind of looks like a “One block wonder” kind of thing. I’d love to do one – please tell me how.

    • Rebecca Shaffer

      Thanks for the nice compliment! I used Bethany Reynold’s book “Magic Stack’n’Whack Quilts. It’s the technique she calls 45Degree Diamond Magic. It was the first quilt that I used Lori’s designs on. I wasn’t feeling very brave, so I used matching thread that doesn’t show very well. I really admire all of the quilts done in heavier weight and contrasting threads. They are beautiful!

      • Pat Evans

        Bethany Reynolds has a PDF file on her website with Stack-and-whack basics. She has several books as well. I started one in a class many years ago, but have never finished it.

  • Aileen Kline

    All so lovely. Thank you for sharing. Gives me hope that I can do this and wonderful ideas.

  • Karla

    It is great fun to look at these pieces!

  • Very impressive!!!! Talented “students” reflecting an awesomely creative teacher!!!!
