Karen's Dragon Quilt - Apples and Beavers blender Quilt

Karen's Dragon Quilt

Karen brought me this lovely children's quilt for longarm quilting, based on some patterns from a quilt company called Apples and Beavers. Along with the dragon in the quilt, Karen 'blended' other patterns and forest friends from the company to devise her own version.  She clearly had a wonderful time making it, because of all the detail I spotted whilst it was on my longarm quilting machine.  Karen was helped along by Lynne Quinn in North Somerset.

Whilst the dragon was sleeping in the corner, we used the popular quilting pattern, 'Popcorn' by Willow Leaf Studio to give the impression of smoke coming out of his nostrils!

Eithne's Timeless Treasures Klimt Quilt, quilted at Fabadashery Longarm Quilting

Eithne's Timeless Treasures Klimt Quilt

Today I am sharing Eithne's Klimt Quilt, which was inspired by a Timeless Treasures Gustav Klimt Abstract Gold Panel.  The Timeless Treasures fabric is popular because of the metallic gold  printing technique it uses and the whole quilt glimmered. Eithne has enlarged it by adding Pineapple and Snail Trail blocks in similar fabrics.

The quilting pattern we used was 'Nemesh Feathers'  designed by Bethanne Nemesh of White Arbor Quilting, which added another layer of luxury to the whole quilt.
