Silver Forest Quilts

This quilt by Courtney is up next — it’s loaded and ready for custom quilting with traditional feathers!!! All the colorful fabrics are from vintage flour sacks!!!

This one went home today with Pam — it’s creator! A very well made, beautiful quilt — fun to quilt!

Day 2 of the quilt challenge to me by Jacqui Santangelo. — I designed and made this wall hanging about 5 years ago. I have Bantu African heritage through my Great Great Grandmother Caroline and so I wanted to honor her and her ancestry with this quilt. I named it BANTU VILLAGE DANCES. More than half of the fabrics are African fabrics. I love the combinations of African and American fabrics. And I love the traditional log cabin patchwork design that has a modern twist by my cutting the strips 7/8” wide. I quilted it in a modern design that also has an African geometric style to it. It blends two cultures and I love that. —— I love you GGGrandma Caroline!!! I wish I had known you personally and that I knew your story. 🧡💚🖤❤️💙🤎💛💜

I finished making and quilting this wonderful queen-size hexie quilt for Sally and we are all thrilled with the outcome! She selected all the many fabrics to create this British country flower garden style with a patchwork border and the patchwork binding. Zoom in to see the beautiful quilting design she chose that was the icing on the cake. I really missed it when it came time to ship it to Sally on the East Coast!!

What a fun quilt to do for Carrie in memory of her Grandfather!! I made the quilt and after quilting I hand appliquéd the patches and the funny chicken feet socks! He seems like a great guy with an awesome sense of humor! Every quilt tells a story!!

This client’s quilt was made from fabrics she collected from all around the world as she traveled in her career!! Quilting it for her (Pattern: Sounds of the Wind) was so interesting because I had the chance to see all the fabrics up close and how she paired them up. Very talented client — a quilt artist!

Happy wife ……. Happy life!!
