Kristan’s Arrowhead Quilt and Bear Paw Runner

Kristan has made some beautiful quilts over the years, and I’m lucky to quilt for her!! I actually quilted these for her last fall. Yes, I’m trying to catch up on sharing quilts.

The pattern is Arrowhead by Primitive Gatherings, click here to get the pattern. https://primitivegatherings.us/arrowhead-pri-2056/?searchid=0&search_query=Arrowhead

The fabrics are from their Prairie Gatherings line.

Kristan requested my Woven panto, which is fun with all the triangles. Woven is available in my shop at https://www.quiltingit.com/shop/p/woven

I used cream Omni thread from Superior Threads. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for 15% off your next purchase.

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles, go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

These fabrics are flannel, which makes this quilt even cozier.

I’m loving the woven looking texture that my Woven panto creates!!

I love the backing fabric she chose. The quilty texture shows up so good on it.

Kristan also made the long runner. If I remember right she said she was taking it to her cabin. So fun!!

The block is a bear paw that she added a thin sashing around. It looks like a window pane.

Kristan requested Chunky Knit panto by Tawny from Simply Fabulous Quilting. Go to: https://simplyfabulousquilting.com/shop/ols/products/chunky-knit-panto

I love the quilty texture!!

I also used the same Cream Omni thread and 8020 batting that I linked above.

Denise’s Incredible “Hide and Seek” Quilt

I’m super excited to share this incredible quilt that Denise pieced together entirely by hand. Yes, by hand.

The pattern is called Hide and Seek by Willyne Hammerstein, and the pattern and papers or templates are available below. The method is english paper piecing. https://www.pinkdoorfabrics.com/collections/hide-and-seek?_pos=1&_psq=seek&_psid=e624dfb0f&_ss=e

This is the largest custom quilt that I’ve ever quilted, and it was so beautifully made. It took me over 20 hours to custom quilt.

I have oodles of pictures, but it’s hard to capture all the details.

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads to quilt it, which blends beautifully on all the colorful Tula Pink fabrics. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3002-natural-white/p/134-02-3002?show=Cones and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout to get 15% off your next order.

There are five large medallions, with several regular sized linking them together and several small ones scattered throughout.

When I custom quilt I want to repeat several of the quilted designs throughout the quilt to make it more cohesive. Some are more detailed while others are a simple orange peel petal.

I really just wanted to enhance each shape as well as the fabrics used and style of the medallion.

I used several of my Circle2 rulers to quilt all the beautiful curves, intermixed with freehand quilting and straight lines.

Back in 2018 I designed and created my Circle2 rulers, because I couldn’t find a circle longarm quilting ruler I loved. For this quilt I used 9 of the 12 circles, 2”-10”. It’s nice to have a set that is so versatile. Each ruler has two different sizes of circles, ranging from 2” up to 13”. You can see the 3”/9” pictured below.

My Circle2 rulers are available at https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I used an 8” Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt all the lines. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles, which you can see pictured below. https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

I love that simple curves, lines, and circles can create an overall beautifully quilted design.

You’ll notice in several of the blocks that the same fabrics don’t go all the way around the outside of the block, it’s because the blocks are interlocking. So some of the designs I quilted are different.

One of my favorite elements I quilted are the fan like curves, you can see in the light pink fabric in the block above. I used either my 8” or 9” Circle2 rulers to quilt those throughout the quilt. I saw the design quilted on a quilt that my friend Rebecca from Ruby Blue Quilts did on a quilt.

The diamond shape I saw quilted on a quilt that Rebecca did as well. It’s fun to intermix the straight lines with the curves.

Simple orange peel petals can add so much dimension to a block, like the one above.

When I quilted the large medallions I quilted all the smaller stars around the outside the same in the one block.

The picture below shows a edge that isn’t straight, Denise will straighten out the edge when binding it.

Swirls, like the ones below were also great to add some dimension and help with bulky centers.

I have some fun videos of some of the designs on my instagram. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaoUE8pRAPC/?igsh=MWNmcjNweWVvdWtkdg== and https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dao6kB6ID3n/?igsh=MXBiNzdtOTQxbjZ1bg==

Denise plans to enter this in our county fair in the next week or so. So excited to see it displayed.

Here are some pictures of the backing. I also shared a quick video on instagram as well. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Da3J-RTI2Wp/?igsh=eWE4N2JkZ2xoNGtu

I love the fun Tula Pink backing she chose, which is a 108” wide backing.

It’s fun to see all the designs intermixed together.

Quilty textures don’t next to be complex or complicated to be just what a quilt needs.

Donna’s Land That I Love quilt

Donna was invited to be apart of a big quilt show in southern Utah and wanted to display her incredible Land That I Love quilt!!

The Land That I Love pattern is by Verna from The Vintage Spool. https://www.thevintagespool.com/product-page/land-that-i-love …isn’t it such an amazing sampler quilt?!?!?!!

Donna added the blocks at the bottom to commemorate the 250th anniversary.

Donna requested custom quilting, which was so fun for me! Trying to highlight each block individually and create beautiful textures at the same time. It took me 11 hours to freehand/freemotion custom quilt this quilt. No computerized designs were used.

In the flag I wanted to create a little movement, yet enhance the shape. I quilted 1/4” pinstripes in the stars as well as the red and cream stripes that go diagonally up. I quilted four pointed squares in each of the squares too. The solid blue squares have three 1/2" diagonal lines the cross with the diagonal lines going the opposite direction. To create a plaid effect around the stars.

I wish you could see the beautiful texture in person. I carried that throughout the flag to the right side.

I hope you’ll notice in these pictures the overall cohesive look of the quilt, as I repeated several of the designs into different blocks to help it come together so beautifully. From background fillers and curves, to lines and even the classic stipple. On a quilt like this, that celebrates our history, I thought Stippling would fit in so nicely.

My birthday is the day after the 4th, which means I absolutely love all things patriotic.

Now, let’s look closer at the details…

Lady Liberty with some little details, and Overlapping Circles as the background filler.

I teach Overlapping Circles in my Quilting It Freemotion video course on my website. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course

Some Pebbles, which I also teach in my course, as well as lots of lines, some curves which I did with my Circle2 rulers and some ribbon candy. Classic quilty goodness.

My Circle2 rulers are available in my shop. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

More lines and curves, having my Circle2 rulers allows me to quilt curve from as little as 2” up to 13”. I LOVE the curves I was able to create in the star block above.

My Circle2 rulers are in my shop: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I wanted this block, which is the largest block on the quilt, to stand out! The curves beautifully dance around the block and the lines frame it so perfectly.

I each of these appliqué and pieced blocks I tried to enhance the shapes and create fun background textures that help them stand out from one another without over powering the ones next to it. Harmony is my goal, I think I achieved it.

How darling is this bicycle, like seriously!! One of my favorite blocks. I only quilted a little on the bike itself, it really is about creating beautiful texture in the background to make the bike pop.

When it comes to quilting lines, don’t be afraid of mixing up all the textures. From diagonal 1/4” pinstripes to cross hatching to a 1/4” diamond plaid with 1/4” vertical and horizontal lines around the door and to echo the roof line. Love it all! Creating didn’t line designs while I’m in the moment, is one of my favorite things.

I used Linda’s Edge rulers from The Quilted Pineapple. Her strait rulers are my favorite. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

It’s amazing all these cute little blocks fit together perfectly in this quilt. I’m loving all the little details.

For the blocks at the bottom I wanted to keep the quilting simple, so I quilted 1/2” and 1/4” lines to frame it beautifully.

I decided to try four pointed rectangle stars, and I love them!! Easy to do. Start with a quilted X and then find a line on the ruler and use that reference pointed as you work your way around the X. Love it!!

I used my favorite 4 oz bamboo batting from Winline Textiles, based out of northern Utah. Go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/winline-100bamboo-s/145.htm

I also used my favorite Omni thread to quilt it. Cream and Navy threads were perfect for this quilt. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones and https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3109-navy-blue/p/134-02-3109?show=Cones …and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA to get 15% off of your next order.

Nancy’s Scrap Jar Star quilt

Super excited to share with you this stunning quilt that I had the privilege of custom quilting this past week.

Nancy made this beautiful Scrap Jar Stars quilt, which is a pattern by Amber from Gigi’s Thimbles. Here is a link to the pdf pattern. https://www.etsy.com/listing/478816982/scrap-jar-stars-digital-pattern-by-gigis?ref=share_ios_native_control

As someone who’s birthday is around the 4th of July, I love all things patriotic…especially beautiful quilts like this one!

Nancy wanted it custom quilted, so I drew this out on graph paper and got started. I had no idea how the blocks would look like together, and i’m beyond thrilled with how it all came together.

Loving all those beautiful curves!!

There is always speculation that this is done with my computer or a digital panto, nope. This is all done with rulers…five different rulers. All the curves were done using my Circle2 rulers. I used the 2”, 3”, 4”, 5”, and 8”...and the 2” and 8” are on the same ruler, as you can see below. My Circle2 rulers come in a set of 6 rulers ranging in size from 2” up to 13”, and are available in my shop at https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I used the Circle2 rulers in the following places. The 3” on the checkerboard center of the star, the 4” for all the curves around the outside of the star, the 2” for the petals in the little squares in the corners of the blocks, the 8” in the sashing, and the 5” for the corner blocks on the border.

I also used an 8” Edge ruler from my friend Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt the straight lines in the border and in each block. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

These are the exciting parts for me…the moments where the blocks meet and the designs beautifully flow together so gracefully. I was expecting something beautiful in the corners where the sashing meets, but I didn’t expect the secondary square design from the two blocks, pictured below.

Loving how a simple design can beautifully enhance the quilt pattern, when it comes to custom quilting that is my goal.

It took me around 8.5 hours to quilt this quilt.

I did a 1/4” pinstripe in the border and added this fun four pointed petal to the corner to mimic some of the other designs in the blocks.

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads to quilt it, which can be found here: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3002-natural-white/p/134-02-3002?show=Cones and don’t forget to used my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout to get 15% off your next order.

I also used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles. Go to:https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

If you’re interested in having me quilt for you, you can schedule edge to edge quilting at https://calendly.com/quiltingit/edgetoedge and for custom quilting please email me a picture of your quilt and we can discuss quilting before you’re added to my list. quiltingit@gmail.com

Kathy’s Quilt Room Quilt

When my friend Kathy brought over her Quilt Room quilt I instantly knew it was going to be so much for me to custom quilt. Don’t worry I have oodles of pictures to share with you, as well as all the quilty details.

The pattern is called Quilt Room by Heather from My Sew Quilty Life. It’s one of her block of the month patterns. Here is a link to the pdf pattern. She also has paper patterns for sale, check her website for those. Go to: https://www.mysewquiltylife.com/product-page/quilt-room-bom-pdf-pattern-bundle

I knew that I wanted to do my Overlapping Circles freehand quilting design in the entire background, so I wanted to create several other textures to enhance that bubbly background texture.

Overlapping Circles is something that I teach in my Quilting It Freemotion course, here’s a link to that video. https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course/p/gn8izw5h2m5otf2xkq7zs7fax4vb6p-trp7l and to check out the rest of my course, go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course

If freemotion quilting isn’t your thing, I have a panto inspired by Overlapping Circles, it’s called Mother of Pearl and is available at Urban Elementz. Go to: https://www.urbanelementz.com/mother-of-pearl.html

The top and bottom of the quilt has a pink border. I decided a 1” cross hatch would be a perfect frame for the entire quilt.

In the quilt banner I quilted quarter inch pinstripes behind the letters and hearts, and a half inch cross hatch inside the hearts.

For all of the lines on this quilt, I used my favorite Edge rulers from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

When I saw that there were quilts on a quilt ladder, of course they each had to be quilted different as if they had been longarm quilted. I used my Circle2 rulers to quilt the curves. 3” and 4”, and I think the 9” for the quilting in the sashing of the quilt below. My Circle2 rulers are available in my shop. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

Of course, I had to add some freehand ribbon candy in the outer border of the quilt below.

Using one of Linda‘s Edge rulers I quilted 1/2” 45° diagonal lines on the quilt ladder, which created the perfect simple texture.

It may have been fun to freehand a wood grain design on the ladder, but it didn’t fit the overall style of the quilt, fabrics or quilting. Lines are exactly what it needs.

I’m loving all of those quilts hanging together, and all that beautiful texture.

These are embroidery hoops. Kathy suggested I quilt an edge around the outside, then I quilted a fun design inside each center. Also loving all the bubbly Overlapping Circles in the background behind the hoops.

To start off the bulletin board/pegboard, I quilted freehand circles, also known as pebbles, around the border. Which is also a design I teach in my Quilting It Freemotion course. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course/p/gn8izw5h2m5otf2xkq7zs7fax4vb6p-jbfy3

For the texture on the board itself, I did 3/4” grid. Which I think highlights the tools as well as the mini quilt. I also added some simple line textures to the tools themselves. Because I had quilted around the rulers I left that un-quilted. The to-do list got a half inch cross hatch.

I quilted the mini quilt exactly like the bottom quilt on the quilt ladder. I love those curves so much! The perfect frame around each of those blocks. Quilted with my Circle2 rulers, which are available in my shop. https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

This is one of my Circle2 rulers, the 3”/9”. The inside circle is 3” and the outside circle is 9”. Check the details about them in my shop. https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I love all the sweet sections of this quilt!! Next up the sewing table, where all the creating happens. I quilted a 1/2” crosshatch on the table and the legs, with an exception of a triple pinstripe on the table top with a 3/4” space between each pinstripe set, which I also did on the wood of the bookcase top and bottom. I quilted 1/4” lines in the sewing mat and the pin jar, a plaid in the tomato, and pinstripes in the jar. Lines are a very easy way to add great texture and yet not make it over the top.

I quilted pinstripes in the iron, as well as very fine lines on the handle and the base of the iron.

Quilted half inch 45° lines on the bench cushion, and pinstripes on the dog bed. Also, Kathy had a dalmatian. I thought it was such a fun touch to include her on her quilt. If you look close, you can see the fur I quilted.

The sewing machine got 1/2” vertical lines, swirls in the knobs, and a 45° lines on the left side of the head of the machine. Also, I had to add texture to the project on the sewing machine. Simple curves and lines do the trick.

Yarn, buttons, bobbins, and spools all got their own textures. 1/4” lines and orange peels for the yarn. 1/2” cross hatch on the basket, curves and lines on the buttons, and ribbon candy and lines for the bobbins and spools.

With the books, I kept it pretty simple and added lines in various directions. The scrap bins got a 45° diamond texture and a pinstripe grid. For the bolts of fabric I kept it pretty simple, I love the varying texture of pinstripes, diagonal lines, and the ribbon candy.

On the bookcase itself, I kept it pretty simple and just did a quarter inch line echoing the outside shape of the bookcase.

Here is the right angle of the quilt, look at all the textures. And the left angle below. Love it so much!!

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads to quilt it. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3002-natural-white/p/134-02-3002?show=Cones and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for 15% off your next order.

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles. Go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

This quilt took me a little over 10 hours to quilt. It is all done freehand or freemotion. Nothing was quilted by the computer.

And one more close up of Kathy’s pup.

Kathy’s Friendship Circle Quilt

I’m beyond thrilled to show you Kathy’s amazing quilt!!! Isn’t it so stunning!

Kathy took a class with her daughter in-law in Sisters Oregon. It’s a paper pieced pattern and guess what…The Friendship Circle block pattern is FREE and it’s by Marcia Hohn from Quilters Cache. The info is here: https://www.quilterscache.com/F/FriendshipCircleBlock.html Marcia links the templates and makes great suggestions on how to get started, if you’ve never paper pieced before.

I wanted to enhance the modern feel of the quilting with soft curves and lines in all the right spots.

Kathy requested a swirl in the center of the block, and then I wanted to highlight the shape with the lines in each of the triangles using an Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

For the soft curves I used three different Circle2 rulers, which are available in my shop at: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I used the 5”, 7”, and 10” rulers. The picture above shows the 4”/10” Circle2 ruler. The 10” is on the outside of the ruler. I used the 10” ruler to quilt the curves around the block, as well as in the four pointed star corners. I used the 5” ruler to quilt the simple arc design in the on point square block, and the 7” ruler to quilt the border…which you’ll see at the end of the post.

My Circle2 rulers come in a set of six and are available in my shop: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop They are made from 1/4” high quality acrylic in the USA, and are available in clear or clear green. The circles range in size from 2” up to 13”.

I love how the overall quilting design compliments and frames the quilt pattern.

I used cream Omni thread and New England Blue Omni thread from Superior Threads. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones and https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3107-new-england-blue/p/134-02-3107?show=Cones

And don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout to get 15% off your order.

Here is a close up of the blocks!

I used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles. It’s my favorite 8020 I’ve used. Go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

Look at that quilty texture!! Love it!

Below is a look at the curves I quilted in the border using my 7” Circle2 ruler. Which is one of my favorite designs to quilt in sashing or a thin border.

Heidi’s Road to Freedom Quilt

Are you ready to see one of the most stunning sampler quilts?!?!?!!!

Heidi made this beautiful version of the Road to Freedom quilt by Lori Smith, 63 different 5” blocks. Heidi did a different layout than what the pattern calls for, which I love!! She added sashing and a variety of different colored corner stones. The pattern for the blocks can be found here: https://www.frommyhearttoyourhands.com/Qstore/Qstore.cgi?CMD=011&PROD=1336452308

I think one of the many things that I love about this quilt are the solid fabrics. The colors pop against the off white fabric.

It’s hard to pick a favorite block, but one of my favorites is the orange and blue block towards the middle. Which one is your favorite block?

Heidi chose Patricia Ritter’s and my Vintage panto design, which we designed after my simple swirl with a single feather. I love the traditional yet modern feel of this design. Vintage is available at Urban Elementz. Go to: https://www.urbanelementz.com/vintage.html

The soft swirls add movement without being super dense. Which can also soften the hard lines and angles in the blocks.

I used my go to Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads to quilt it. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3002-natural-white/p/134-02-3002?show=Cones and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA to get 15% off your next order.

I used 8020 cotton poly comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles. Go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

Loving how the swirls and feathers dance across the quilt, which you can see better in the border.

I quilted my Sweet Orange Peel panto on it, which I think added the most darling texture. Sweet Orange Peel is available in my shop, go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop/p/sweet-orange-peel

Kara Jo had a batting scrap that worked perfectly for the size of this quilt. I love when that happens.

I just love the quilty texture!!

Even though the minky is printed, the quilting adds such a sweet texture.

Angie’s String Star Quilt

Excited to share an absolutely amazing quilt with you today!!

Angie made this scrappy String Star quilt, which is a FREE block from Corey at Coriander Quilts. She has the tutorial on her blog, check it out here: https://corianderquilts.com/string-star-tutorial/

This is the perfect quilt to use up all those scraps that you have! As you can see the more colorful the better, especially in the variety of strips that are in each star point.

As I was trying to figure out which designs to suggest to Angie, I had the great idea to ask her about my newer Mother of Pearl panto that I designed with Melanie Caldwell from Urban Elementz. I had seen it quilted out recently on a different quilt by another longarmer and was excited to finally have a quilt to quilt it on. Angie told me to choose from the few designs that I suggested because she liked them all… I told her Mother of Pearl could create such great texture! So we went with it, and I am so glad we took that chance. I love it sooo much!

Melanie is amazing and she helped make Mother of Pearl possible! Mother of Pearl panto is available at Urban Elementz, click here: https://www.urbanelementz.com/mother-of-pearl.html

This has been one of the most requested panto designs that I’ve ever had. It’s inspired by my freehand Overlapping Circles design that I do when I’m custom quilting. Check out a video of that here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CdWzpOSphym/?igsh=MTdsdjlqb2txOXVyNA== and it’s one of the designs that I teach in my Quilting It Freemotion video course, check that out here: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads to quilt it, which blends beautifully on all the colors and pops on the black sashing.

Kathy’s Arcadia Avenue Quilt

I have an incredible quilt to share with you today!!

The pattern is Arcadia Avenue by Sassafras Lane Designs. It’s a block of the month book, and can be found here: https://sassafras-lane.com/collections/quilt-books/products/arcadia-avenue

Kathy and the Tokay Stitch n’ Quilt Guild made it together. It’s such an incredible quilt! I’m amazed so many different ladies can sew the blocks and they come together so beautifully.

Kathy shared a picture with me of one of these quilts that she saw at a quilt show. I could quite see all the details in the blocks, but loved the petals in the background. Kathy gave me creative freedom for the custom quilting.

I hope you can see the beautiful textures I created in each of the blocks. Lots of straight lines and curves.

I used three Omni thread colors throughout. The background thread is New England Blue, and I also used Natural White in the blocks with the exception of black thread in all the black fabrics. I love Superior Threads Omni thread. Click here to check out all the beautiful colors. https://www.superiorthreads.com/thread-lines/omni/c/TH-134 and don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout to get 15% off your order.

Kathy requested bamboo batting, which I think she’ll love! I get mine from Winline Textiles. Go to: https://www.winlinetextiles.com

When it comes to custom quilting quilts like these I try to enhance the shapes to help the modern blocks shine. I don’t think feathers would be a good choice, instead a variety of different lines or curves.

Adding some soft swirls added depth and a fun detail in the block above.

The custom quilting on the block above almost creates motion with the pattern and textures. The center of the block had a bulky seam, so I quilted a circle.

I used my 9” Circle2 ruler, which is the outside circle on the ruler below, for all the petals in the blue background. Throughout the rest of the quilt I used the 3”, 4”, and 5” Circle2 rulers. My Circle2 rulers are available in my shop, go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

My Circle2 rulers are made from 1/4” high quality acrylic here in the USA. The circles come in a set of 6, and each ruler has two sizes of circles, like the 3”/9” above. The 3” circle is inside the ruler and the 9” is outside. The circles range in size from 2” up to 13”. I designed them with the hopping foot in mind which adds a quarter of an inch from the needle to the outside of the hopping foot. So a 3” circle quilted using my 3” circle2 ruler ends up being 3”, not 3.5”. They are available in my shop, go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

These are a couple of my favorite blocks! I love everything about them.

And another favorite!

I used a 12” Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt all the lines. Her edge rulers are my favorite straight rulers. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

Thank you for stopping by! If you would like me to custom quilt for you, please send me an email at quiltingit@gmail.com with a picture of your quilt and we can discuss the quilting. If you would like me to quilt edge to edge for you check out my calendar and schedule a day or two. Go to: https://calendly.com/quiltingit/edgetoedge

Here is a link to this Jelly Bar, which includes 42 5”x10” pieces. Go to: https://www.fatquartershop.com/denim-and-daisies-jolly-bar

Ashley chose my and Patricia Ritter’s Floret panto which is available at Urban Elementz. Go to: https://www.urbanelementz.com/quilting-designs/floret.html

Floret is one of several different floral panto designs that Patricia and I created together.

I used cream Omni thread from Superior Threads. Don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for 15% off your order. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones

Laurie’s Block Exchange Quilt

Excited to share with you this stunning quilt that I custom quilted for Laurie mid December. It’s so beautiful!!!

Laurie won these two different blocks from her guild and decided to put them together into one quilt. She has a quilty friend who helped her figure out how to make it happen.

Members of her guild decide whether or not they want to submit a block or two, and then everyone who made a block has a chance to win all of the blocks. Laurie was the lucky winner twice!! This is something that I think they do fairly often, and she’s had both of these sets of blocks for a while, and I think it’s amazing how well the blocks work together.

A drew out the blocks on graph paper to figure out how I wanted to custom quilt each of these blocks. I love doing ruler work when I custom quilt, and creating beautiful shapes that often times create secondary designs. As you can see in these blocks.

For the blocks I used my 2”, 3”, 5”, and 9” Circle2 rulers, which are available in my shop. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop • I created the Circle2 rulers with the hopping foot in mind so when you quilt out a 3” circle you are going to get a 3” circle not a 3 1/2” circle, which I’ve noticed happens with other longarm circle rulers. They are made from a 1/4” high-quality acrylic in America.

I also used a –20– ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple for the arcs in the inner border and her edge ruler for the lines throughout the quilt. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

I just love this quilty texture!!! It’s sooo good!

I don’t think custom quilting always needs to be dense. Some of my favorite designs I’ve created over the years are like what I’ve done on this quilt. Beautiful soft curves and straight lines that creates a beautiful classic look.

You can see some of the secondary designs in both the picture above and below.

In the block pictured below, I used my 5” Circle2 ruler in the rectangles and my 2” Circle2 ruler for the arcs around the blocks and the center of the 9 patch as well as the orange peel petals in the 9 patch.

I used a 3” Circle2 ruler for the curves around the outside of the block and the 2” Circle2 ruler once again for the petals in the half square triangle blocks.

My Circle2 rulers are available as a set of 6 in my shop. The circles range in size from 2”-13”. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I used Cream Omni thread from Superior Threads. Don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for your next order and you’ll get 15% off. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones also, as you can see the cream color of thread blends beautifully!!

As you can see I did my swirly feather freehand design to frame the quilt nicely. I teach my Swirly Feather and 9 other freehand designs in my Quilting It Freemotion video course, which is available on my website. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course • I teach one freemotion quilting design per video, so you can pick and choose which design you would like to learn.

I used my 9” Circle2 ruler to quilt the curves for shorter sashing between the blocks. It’s my favorite design to quilt in sashing.

I love how all of these blocks look together!

Laurie is planning on hanging this on her wall, which is perfect because it’s a smaller throw size.

I used my favorite 8020 batting from Winline Textiles, which is available here: https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

My biggest goal with custom quilting is to create an overall cohesive look with the variety of different designs that I do, and I really love how everything came together on this quilt.

If you’re interested in having me custom quilt for you send me an email with the picture of your quilt and we will talk about the quilting or check out my edge to edge quilting calendar to schedule a day or two. Go to: https://calendly.com/quiltingit/edgetoedge

Bonnie’s Sampler Quilt

Custom quilting sampler quilts is so fun for me! Being able to create different quilty textures in each of the blocks and repeating the design elements in different ways throughout is my goal, like I did on Bonnie’s sample quilt.

I love the overall quilty texture and look of the quilt. The design in the sashing frames the blocks so nicely and I love the add a touch of the swirly feather border.

I used four of my favorite Circle2 rulers, the 2”, 3”, 4”, and 5” throughout the quilt in different places.

My Circle2 machine quilting circle rulers are available in my shop at https://www.quiltingit.com/shop • they are made from a 1/4” high-quality acrylic in the USA. The circles range in size from 2” up to 13”, with two sizes of circles per ruler like the 2”/8” pictured below. They come in clear and green clear.

I used Cream Omni thread from Superior Threads. Don’t forget to use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for 15% off your order. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream-neutral/p/134-02-3004?show=Cones

Check out the background fabric color in both of these pictures. They were taken at the same time in the same room with the same light and with the same phone. I’m still sharing them both because I want to have a place to come to if I have a block that I need to custom quilt and I need a variety of different ideas.

You’ll see in all these blocks a variety of different line designs, lots of orange peel petals, and even some swirls and feathers.

I used an Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt all the lines. https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/ Linda’s Edge rulers are my favorite straight rollers to quilt with!

Bonnie provided her own batting, it feels similar to the 8020 that I use often for client quilts.

I love the swirl arc design that I quilted in the blue fabrics in the block below. It might be one of my most favorite freehand designs that I quilted on this whole quilt. I definitely have to stop and think for a moment which direction I’m going as I work my way around the block so that I don’t quilt the swirl on the wrong side of the block.

When there are odd shapes in the background pieces on the block, sometimes it can be tricky to figure out what to do. I quilted a simple orange peel petal, then filled it with a couple of feathers, and the filled up the rest of the space with my Swirly Feathers, which I teach in my Quilting It Freemotion course. For more info and a look into my video course, click here: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course

Love that teeny tiny orange peel!! My 2” Circle2 ruler for the win. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop

I also love the swirly pointed design that I freehand quilted in the corners on the background fabric in the block below. I’ve never done that specific design before, so I’m going to need to do that again!

Check out that quilty texture one more time!

I posted a few videos when I quilted this quilt back at the beginning of December when I quilted this on my instagram. Here is the first: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR8HP58D50J/?igsh=bWhnYnl5aXk1MDFs and my YouTube channel https://youtube.com/@quiltingit

I love what I did in these corner blocks, and it’s simply lines with a 1/2” spacing. Click here to watch a video I shared about quilting corner blocks correctly so the points don’t get cut off. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSIgDuUEaVe/?igsh=MXd1bWdhcXJwbTd2cg==

Check out that Minky texture!

I don’t love doing dense custom quilting on quilts that have minky on the back, because it won’t be as soft as it should be. This is just the right amount of quilting!

You’ll see in both the block above and below those beautiful swirly arc and swirly point designs that I freehanded and mentioned previously when I showed the front of each of the blocks. I love them both so much!

If you’re interested in having me quilts for you, check out my edge to edge quilting calendar at https://calendly.com/quiltingit/edgetoedge or email me at quiltingit@gmail.com with a picture of your quilt for custom quilting. Thanks for stopping by.

Angie’s Christmas Alphabet Quilt

The holidays have come and gone and I forgot I wanted to share this incredible quilt with you.

Angie got together with a group of quilty friends and made this darling alphabet Christmas quilt.

They each chose some letters and did a block for each person in the group. There’s some pretty incredible details on each of the blocks. She recently did a Halloween one, and I am so excited to quilt it.

There is no pattern for this quilt. They each came up with their own ideas for their blocks.

Check out the fun details!!

There are beads, buttons, bows, and you can see how dimensional Santa is, so I just had to quilt around them as best I could.

I quilted my freehand Overlapping Circles design in the background, which is great around appliqué. It’s probably my favorite because I can make it look good between all of the tiny pieces. I teach my Overlapping Circles design in my Quilting It Freemotion course. I would love to teach you how to quilt it. Go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course/p/gn8izw5h2m5otf2xkq7zs7fax4vb6p-trp7l or for an inside look into my course, click here: https://youtu.be/5i_iKdnyq2Y?si=beYC18Q7YrGuhMhz

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads. Don’t forget that you can use my non-affiliate code ASTLEISHA at checkout for 15% off your order. Here is the thread I used: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3002-natural-white/p/134-02-3002?show=Cones

Here are some close-ups on some of the darling blocks.

When I quilted around the Santa Claus, I actually was able to fold in the arms, legs, and part of the coat. It was easy to work around.

These pearls were a fun touch on this mistletoe block.

In some of the appliqué pieces I did add a little bit of quilting if I felt like it was necessary or would enhance the quilt. Also, if the layers were flat like the nativity pieces above.

How cute is this quilted stocking?! The mouse even had a pillow and a cute little santa hat.

You can see that they added beads in the snow globe above. In a quilt like this it’s all about the details.

How darling is that village?! Some of the blocks had wool, too.

I loved this beautiful wreath block!

You’ll see that I quilted some wood green into this yule log.

I used an Edge ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple to quilt the crosshatching in this checkered block. Go to: https://www.thequiltedpineapple.com/shop/

I also used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles. https://www.winlinetextiles.com/blended-battings-winline-comfort-blend-s/127.htm

Sharon’s Edgar the Raven Quilt

I’ve quilted a few Legit Kit quilts before, and they’re always so incredible!!! Sharon did an excellent job on Edgar the Raven.

Here is a link to just the pattern. https://legitkits.com/products/edgar-the-raven-printed-fabric-not-included

If you’re interested in a kit click here: https://legitkits.com/products/edgar-the-raven-quilt-top-kit

Sharon and I discussed a variety of different textures and freehand quilting designs, and this is how it turned out. I love the textures together!!

The fabric colors are so vibrant I did not even have to edit these pictures. The colors are bold in all the right ways.

I freehand quilted a combination of swirls, waves, pebbles, and arcs. All to create movement and texture. I teach a lot of these elements individually in my Quilting It Freemotion course. Check it out here: https://www.quiltingit.com/quilting-it-freemotion-course

I quilted straight lines in the legs and talons, with a wood grain in the branch he’s perched on. Woodgrain is also a design that I teach in my freemotion course.

I used three different colors of Omni thread, I quilted the entire background with Orange Peel #3154, which is definitely more visible on the yellow fabrics, but I thought it still blended beautifully. Here is the link: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3154-orange-peel/p/134-02-3154?show=Cones

I used Navy Blue #3109 for the entire body of the bird, except the eye, which I used the same Orange Peel color. Navy Blue can be found here: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3109-navy-blue/p/134-02-3109?show=Cones

I used Steel Blue #3110 for the branch. Which blended beautifully. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3110-steel-blue/p/134-02-3110?show=Cones
