LeAnn’s Quilts
My friend LeAnn has been sewing some pretty incredible quilts lately, and I’m excited to share them with you…
Gorgeous, right?!?! This is the Modern Farmhouse quilt by Amanda Niederhauser, and it’s in her More Playful Precuts book, available on Amazon. I love the colors and fabrics that LeAnn used. It’s so soft and beautiful!
I sent a few design options to LeAnn and she chose Taj Mahal - Echoed and I love it!! Taj Mahal - Echoed is one of Patricia Ritter and my panto designs!! It’s such a beautiful one and quilts out easily. It’s available at Urban Elementz.
I used hobbs wool batting on this one which made it extra puffy with the minky on the backing. I used a cream Omni thread from Superior Threads.
This pattern is so versatile. You could make a christmas or 4th of july or winter quilt. If you’re looking for a star quilt, this is a great one!
Look at that minky backing. This is why I suggest solid colored minky with a regular pile. The ones with the longer fibers look fun, but actually hide too much of the quilting, and they are honestly hard to deal with.
Next up, this darling quilt that LeAnn made for her grand daughter. Lucky her!!!
This lovely Quarter Star pattern is an exclusive quilt that Amy Smart did with My Girlfriends Quilt Shoppe. Go watch the video of Amy and Kris.
We chose the Flower Child panto by Apricot Moon Designs, which is available at Urban Elementz. I’ve used this one several times, it’s a great one.
I used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles based out of Utah and Natural White Omni Thread from Superior Threads.
Those flowers on all those sweet florals…love!!
I love how a quilt comes alive with beautiful quilty texture!!!
This is another versatile quilt!! Imagine all the different seasons or holidays. It also could be masculine or feminine depending on your fabric choices.
This is 4 Patch Charm by Amanda Niederhauser. I love the +’s in the corners of each block.
LeAnn chose Grapevine by Denise Shillinger for the panto design, which happens to be my favorite leaf panto!! It’s also available at Urban Elementz.
I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles and cream Omni thread from Superior Threads.
I love how the leaves seem to dance across the quilt.
Look at that solid minky!!! I’m telling you. If you’d like a unique texture on the minky backing of your quilt, go with solid regular minky 100% of the time…when you put minky on the back of a quilt…and you’ll love that quilty texture!!!
Next, this gorgeous Summer Meadow quilt.
The pattern is by Amanda Niederhauser and is in her More Playful Precuts book. Here is a link to it on Amazon if the shop I tagged sales out of the book.
I gave LeAnn a few choices and she chose the Canary panto by Patricia Ritter and me. It’s available at Urban Elementz. I love the swirls with the open bubbly feathers.
I used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles and cream Omni thread from Superior Threads.
I love the classic traditional pattern and fabrics that LeAnn used on this quilt. It reminds me of when I first started sewing quilts. Such beautiful memories!!
Look at those swirly feathers!! Also I love a corner of the backing with the front of the quilt! I need to take more pictures like these in the future.
Here in northern Utah the Utah State Aggies are a fan favorite and I love it when Aggie quilts come my way!
This is the Walk About pattern by Ann Lauer from Grizzly Gulch Gallery. I love how dimensional it looks.
I used a tan Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.
Look at all of that glorious texture!!!
And, of course…GO AGGIES!!
Thanks for being here and supporting my quilting journey. It’s so fun for me to quilt my designs on some of my client quilts, but even more fun to see them on your client quilts. Thanks for the support!! It means the world to me.
If you’re interested in having me quilt edge to edge for you, check out my calendar and schedule a day or two. Happy Quilting!! Leisha
Jeanenne’s Throw Quilt
When quilting texture looks sooo good on a quilt, my heart is so happy!
Jeanenne made this beautiful throw quilt, unfortunately I don’t know the name of the pattern.
I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads, and my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.
What I love most about this quilt…is our Taj Mahal Echoed panto design, which is available at Urban Elementz. I can’t wait to put this design on another quilt, it quilts out beautifully.
Look at that texture, it’s just sooo good.
The quilting adds so much texture, so I try to pick something that will enhance the overall design.
Some more close ups…
Look how perfect that quilt backing is!! Jeanenne didn’t have a backing fabric, so I found this perfect one in my mom and aunts online fabric shop Sisters and Quilters.
Are you looking to get one of your quilts quilted? Check out my edge to edge quilting spots available on my calendar. Thank you!! Happy New Year!
