Heritage Park Festival of Quilts - 2016!

I had a fabulous weekend at the HP FoQ!!!  So much fun talking and geeking out with so many quilty friends!  I had a number of my own quilts in the show and I am really pumped by the number of my customers' quilts that I quilted that were also in the show.  There were just so many really fabulous quilts - hundreds of them!

These are my own quilts (look at previous posts for close ups of the quilting detail on all of the following quilts):


"Read All Over"  [pattern is a Susan Madu "Strip and Flip"]


"Rainbow Connection" [based on the "Burst Block" by Man Sewing]



"What the Hex" [no pattern]





"Patchwork City" [pattern by Elizabeth Hartman]





"Draco Ostium" [unknown artist did the initial drawing]




Here are some customer quilts: 

The first three are part of a Susan Madu "Strip and Flip" design group entry.  I quilted these three.  The first one is Susan's and she used it as the cover for her pattern [look for Modern Blended Quilts].  The next two were made by her friend Armiel, who was testing the pattern.





Next up is Rachel's "Gravity Quilt".  We were both pretty excited that it got the prime display spot in the park!  Front and centre on the Wainright Hotel!  Both days!


Next three, below: Agnes's "IKEA Rug".




Below: Agnes's "Bright Birch Trees"


Next three below: Jodi's "Square in Square" - two of them - blue and pink.





Next three below: another Susan Madu Modern Blended Quilts - "Rail in Rail"  - again this one is the cover for her pattern.





Finally - another of Agnes's quilts - Hexies.

Strip and Flip

This is my version of Susan Madu's "Strip and Flip" quilt, as modeled by Marlow and Joe.
Front above, back below (Ikea fabric on the back)


I quilted it with straight and wavy lines with a touch of cross-hatching.  Then in the large plain white, I put a geometric "flower".  I like it - I think it really suits the quilt.

Sue's Quilt

Sue designed this quilt and wanted it quilted in a particular way - straight lines.  She will then hand quilt circles of various sizes over the whole surface.  I am looking forward to seeing the finished product. 
 

 
The she asked her friend to test the pattern for her and asked me to do "any" all over design on it.  So I did my version of swirls and feathers since I haven't done that for awhile.
