They are going to be in booth #954 at Houston Quilt Market, so stop by, if you’re going to market and check out all their amazing quilts!

First up! How cute is this little guy?!?!?!!!! Designed by Madi Hastings, meet Doxie Love! He’s probably my most favorite of their new releases.

I used white 30 tex A&E Perma Core thread for the background, and black thread for his suit coat, and a lighter brown thread for all his body. I also used Winline’s 8020 cotton poly blend batting.

Look at that face!!!

I used Linda from The Quilted Pineapple’s Edge rulers, to quilt all the 1/2” lines. Go here to check them out: https://thequiltedpineapple.bigcartel.com

I decided with the body to quilt a wood grain in each of the brown pieces. I love the texture it added to him.

For the background, I used my newest design which is a variation of my Squared design…I used Diamond Squared©️! And…I love it! It nests beautifully, just like Squared. It’s currently only available in my shop. Go here: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

Here is the backing…cool, huh?!!!!!

Next up…Maiden of the Sea, also designed by Madi Hastings. Isn’t she amazing!!!

I used A variety of different colors of thread on this one. White, Aqua, boysenberry, tan, and a variegated blue…which added some fun texture to her hair. I also used my favorite Winline 8020 cotton poly blend batting.

I wanted some fun swirly/wavy texture in the background. So I used Patricia Ritter and my Breeze©️ design. It’s available at Urban Elementz go here: https://www.urbanelementz.com/breeze.html and I love how it turned out!!

With her face and hair, I just wanted to add texture to create movement and not take away from how beautiful she is. I love how she came together with the quilting texture.

I think her arms and hands are my favorite part!

With her tail, I want to keep it simple, so I quilted 1/2” diagonal lines.

Here is another look at the background. Love it!!!

Okay, how amazing is this tree skirt?!?!?!! This one is called Peppermint by Madi Hastings, using Allison Glass’ Holidays fabrics.

I used my favorite Winline 8020 batting and white 30 tex A&E Perma Core thread. When quilting a tree skirt, that already has an opening, I center it on the quilting machine and have the opening at the bottom. Placed like pictured above. That way I can get the opening in the right spot.

I love all those pretty colors!

I wanted to create tons of texture. Each colored section has 9 pieces in it. I quilted 9 different designs, one in each block, and then mixed them up as I quilted each of the colored strips. As shown in the pictures.

I also alternated swirls and overlapping circles, in the background strips.

Lines, squares, stars, scallops…

Ribbon candy…and more lines…

More lines, and twists.

Such a fun one to quilt!!

Next up, Celebrating the Season by Madi Hastings! So cute!!!

This is the perfect wall hanging! I used several different colors of thread on their one. Did my best to match those beautiful colors. I also used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline.

I wanted to create lots of fun texture on this one, too! I quilted a vertical line design that has notches and rounded edges. And, of course some 1/2” angled lines. Using my favorite Edge rulers from Linda!

I love a good crackle background. This crackle design is done freehand, but if you feel more comfortable using a ruler…go for it!

Overlapping swirls is one of my favorite background textures. It adds so much fun texture! Some lines and ribbon candy in the stripe on the hat!

The border is actually ribbon candy, too! It’s a fun freehand design, and perfect for a small border or sashing.

Next up, Dreamer designed by Ashley Greer! I love how the texture added so much to the background on this one!

I used a dark aqua thread, as well as a white and brown thread. And, Winline’s 8020 cotton poly blend batting.

I quilted a freehand wood grain in the background, simple randomly spaced pinstripes on the feathers, ribbon candy on the brown hoop, and a fun block design inside the center of the hoop…scroll down to see.

Love that texture!!

I used my Flurries Block 5, only available in my shop: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop and I think it turned out beautifully!!!

Next up…. Soul of Spring! By Alyssa Woolstenhulme. I quilted a smaller version of this one last year for them…and I quilted it completely different.

I used several different colors of thread, whatever blended the best! I also used my favorite Winline 8020. It’s my go to batting, if you haven’t noticed!

I love the variety of textures together!! Lots of fun movement.

My favorite is that wood grain behind the bird!!

There is some more crackle!!

So…have you wondered how I quilt the diamond cross hatch. I first start with 3/4ths of an inch angled lines, and then quilt vertical 3/4ths of an inch lines. I love how dressy it makes something. The body of the bird, pictured above a couple pictures, also has this quilted on it.

Makes me ready for spring. Haha!

Next, we have Sew in Love with Life designed by Madi Hastings.

Those spools and big cross stitch x’s are my favorite!!

I quilted Soho by Sarah Ann Myers on it!! It’s available at Urban Elementz: https://www.urbanelementz.com/?acc=12 I love this design!! It reminds me of spools unwinding. Which is why I picked it.

I used white 30 tex A&E Perma Core thread, which is a nice thick poly wrapped poly thread. I used Winline’s 8020!

Those spools!!!

Next up, Bloom with Grace by Madi Hastings. How sweet is this one!!

Also, making me dream of Spring.

I had seen this design used by other quilters, and then come to find out it was a free design on my Statler. It’s by Wasatch Quilting and is called New Moon Loops. It reminds me of seeds, which I thought would look beautifully on this quilt.

I used a white 30 tex A&E Perma Core thread and Winline’s 8020 batt.

Next up, Handspun Sunshine by Alyssa Woolstenhulme.

After I quilted this one, they added some appliqué petals. Go here to see it: https://lasercutquilts.com/shop/product/handspun-sunshine-1334?category=1

I used Flower Child by Apricot Moon Designs, to quilt it. It’s available at Urban Elementz: https://www.urbanelementz.com/?acc=12 It’s such a great flower design!!

Don’t forget about the other quilts I quilted for Laser Cut Quilts in the last few months, they will also be at Quilt Market!!

Thanks for being here and checking out my quilting! It means a lot! Hope you enjoying checking out what is new for Laser Cut Quilts!! I’ve said it before, I love their Flexi Fuse, if you appliqué give it a try!! I love it! I recently made a pillow using it…and I hand stitched around each of those acorns, and not a single sore finger. It also quilts up so easily, compared to other interfacing!!
