Longarm Quilting

Custom Half Square Triangles

Sometimes Crafter Longarm Quilting // Custom HST Quilt

I’m a little behind on sharing quilts – but when am I not behind when it comes to blogging.  I didn’t want to let anymore time pass without sharing Meredith Hobb’s gorgeous quilt.  She designed this and asked me to do some custom quilting on it, which I was more than excited to do.

I love working with all that negative space in modern quilts.  She entered this in the Sisters Quilt Show this summer where it was in the Portland Modern Quilt Guilds display of quilts.  I had a great time coming up with the design and think it really complimented the piecing.

I did a simple fill that mimicked the piecing in the open space.  As usual the design started on paper, and then I drew it out in CAD and then I set it all up for my machine to quilt it out.  I can never say enough about how much I love being able to do that.

For the piecing I filled the space with a design called Celtic Sea, a wonderful edge-t0-edge design that works with so many quilt styles.

My mom requested I make this Swedish Braided bread with apple pie filling for her birthday this year, instead of a cake. It smells delicious and I can't wait to dig in! #birthdaytreat #swedishbraidedbread

I decided to make his ornament this year, and while I set out to make a toilet paper roll ornament, he saw white clay and assumed goose, so I made him Lucy goose. He's quite happy, and so am I. He loves our Lucy goose.

I used oven-bake polymer clay (Michael's brand was what I had on hand), acrylic paint (just the craft variety...again, what I already had on hand), and a glossy glaze (Sculpey, which I don't recommend, its gotten very thin since I last used it, it took way too many coats to be the right thickness). The ornament is about 1.5"h x 1.5"w x 0.5"deep. It was really easy to make, so don't say you can't do it. You can.

Taking advantage of my end of year time off from q Taking advantage of my end of year time off from quilting to do a little crafting. I made an ornament for Brice (which I'll share later when it's finished), and then painted these cute little canvases while my paint was out yesterday. You can see individual photos of each of them over on my other account  @christinalanecreates (grouped with the photo like this).

This is another quilt quilted for @jenny.l.barrett I felt Sashy was the right amount of modern and traditional for this quilt top. I was having a hard time picking a design for this but kept coming back to this. It's a go-to design for me and I always love it on everything. I think it ended up being pretty perfect for this. #sometimescrafterlongarmquilting
