Shamrock Quilt

This is a little quilt I made from some fabrics I bought at a quilt run. I think they had the quilt and I made one similar...I don't think I bought the pattern. It was very fast to piece...just too me forever to quilt...for no good reason.





The last photo is of the back...I quilted using one single circular design radiating out of the back...


Circle Quilts

I saw this quilt online and found some directions. I loved the look and bought a couple of different fabrics to test it out. I meant to make one big quilt, but ended up with these two smaller quilted and I love them.



The top quilt is a teal fabric with a zig zag. The second fabric is a stripe...different placement of the stripes make the circles different. The quilting is different on each as I was playing/practicing my quilting.

The teal circles has 4 circles quilted each radiating from the center of each block.


The multi color quilt, I did some straight lines that followed each of the spokes... it looks really cool. These quilts are smaller table top sized.

I saw this quilt during a quilt run and had to make it. The shop had a kit that I purchased and got the pattern for free.

There is a really cool method for making the blocks. I quilted it myself with multiple colors of thread...

Here's two shots of the back with the quilting...The first picture is how the fabric really looks - black. The second shows off the quilting a little bit better because of the last of contrast.

This was a fun quilt to make and I'd probably make another if I could find similar fabrics...
