Pinwheel and Art Quilt

Welcome one and all to the madness of my brain.  I finished two quilts this past couple of weekends and figured I would post a few pictures.  I am also doing a series of post over at Tattoo Artist Magazine regarding the train-wreck Best Ink that is currently on the Oxygen channel.

Keep in mind that I do not condone tattoo shows because they are just a bunch of hype.  But I figured I would give my two cents and have a little fun doing it.  If you do not mind colorful language and sarcasm go check it out.

Anyway back to the quilt.  One is a basic pinwheel quilt and one is an applique art piece I am calling Under the Bough of Yggdrasil.  Yggdrasil is a giant ash tree in Norse mythology.

Dream Weaver and Extra Fabric

Hello Fellow Quilters!

I recently bought Tula Pinks book Quilts from the House of Tula Pink from her website.  When I got the book I also got all the fabric to make the Dream Weaver quilt that is in the book.  This has to be the biggest quilt I have ever made.  Damn  thing is huge...well huge to me...

It is a nice sunny day here in Texas and I was able to get some good outside shots of it by the pool.

Finished Size: 80" x 96"

Fabric:  Prince Charming

Quilting and Piecing by ME!

I had some extra fabric left over and made this little table topper

Sew Stitchy Quilt

We're less than a week away from Quiltcon.  I am pretty excited. I am taking a freemotion quilting class by Angela Walters.  Hope to get some good tips.

I finished this quilt a couple of weeks back and I did not post anything about it.  The fabric is designed by Aneela Hoey called Sew Stitchy.















See you at Quiltcon!

Kimono Wallhanging

Second project of the year.  I feel alright about this.  I think the Mrs. had the right idea and I should have broken up the blocks with some solid color.  The tabs are too long too but that was my first time making tabs so it is a learning process.  Overall it isn't too bad.

First Quilt of the Year

Nothing like starting off the new year right!  First quilt finished on New Years Day.  The design I did in EQ 7.  Just have square triangles put together to make a zig zag pattern.  The Fabric is designed by Sheri McCulley Studios and called Woodland Tails.  It is put out by Riley Blake Designs.

Another year down....

I have not written on this blog in a while.  I have been busy sewing and writing weekly reviews of this season's Ink Master for the Tattoo Artist Magazine Blog. If you do not mind reading a foul mouthed Italian expounding on the world of reality television, then feel free to check it out.

I did manage to get 3 Holiday Quilts completed.

And The Yule Father Quilt















I have gotten quite a lot of work done this year and am quite surprised about the amount of quilts I finished.



Have a happy and safe new year!
