Heidi’s Simple Addition Quilt

When this beautiful quilt arrived I was in love with the colors and fabrics.

The pattern is called Simple Addition by Allison from Cluck Cluck Sew. Go here to get the PDF: https://cluckclucksewshop.com/collections/pdf-patterns/products/simple-addition-pdf-only

I used Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

I used Pearce by Keryn Emmerson which is available at Urban Elementz. https://www.urbanelementz.com/pearce.html It’s such a classy design, and it looks beautiful with all these fabrics.

Hopefully you can see the swirl with a hook and the circles. One of my favorites!!

Designs like these tend to soften all the hard lines in the quilt pattern, too.

If you’re looking for a great plus quilt, this is a great one!!

Thanks for being apart of my quilty journey!! If you’re interested in having me quilt for you, check out my calendar and schedule a day or two. https://calendly.com/quiltingit

Happy quilting!! Leisha

Kathy’s Quilts

Hello there,

I have a few cute quilts to show you!! Kathy made all three of these quilts, so I’m going to share them all in this post.

First up, this fun Love, Sweet Love quilt. It’s actually a boxed kit from Riley Blake. The fabrics are by Amber Kemp-Gerstel. So cute, right?!?!

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles and natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads.

Kathy picked a design off of Urban Elememtz called Alpine Grande by Patricia Ritter, which I hadn’t seen before. I love how it turned out!!

How cute is that eyelash background fabric?!!!

Another view…

This quilt is so happy…people reaching out for one another even in diversity…which we all need to do. Our differences can be celebrated and be something that brings us together.

Next up…

This quilt and the next are using the same Jenny Doan pattern that is in the Quilter’s 10” Precut Companion book. These fabrics are by Holly Taylor from her Sunflower Garden line.

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles and a golden tan Omni thread from Superior Threads, that blends well with the fabrics.

Kathy requested Maureen’s Sunflowers from Urban Elememtz for the quilting design, which is another new design for me.

It’s fun to see sunflower fabrics again!! My sister and I had dresses in our early teen years that my mom made us, with almost identical sunflower fabric.

Next up…

This is the same pattern as the last quilt, just in different fabrics. These are from the Forest Fables fabric line by Paintbrush Studio Fabrics.

Kathy requested the Gummy Bears quilting design by Patricia Ritter, which is available at Urban Elememtz. Which is such a sweet design!!

I used a golden tan Omni thread from Superior Threads, and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

The bears and stars dance across the quilt!!

Thanks for stopping by!! Hope you find some time to sew soon, I sure need to.

If you’re interested in having me quilt a quilt for you, please look at my calendar. Thank you!! • leisha

Debbie’s Star Struck Quilt

Isn’t this a stunning quilt?!?!!! Debbie and her mom Marilyn have been working on several quilts lately, and this is one of them. Marilyn is in her 90’s, which has me hoping I’m sewing into my 90’s too.

This one came in a kit called Star Struck, which is no longer available. The pattern had three different layouts in it, and it’s called Floating Star by Stitch and Snip.

I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads…which I think blends beautifully over all the dark saturated fabrics, and 8020 cotton poly comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles.

Debbie chose Patricia Ritter and my Horizon quilting design, which added some beautiful texture!! Horizon is available at Urban Elementz. We designed this design years ago, and I’m finally using it. It stitched out beautifully!!

The variety of batik fabrics together is so stunning!!

Another view…

If you’re looking to get some of your quilts professionally machine quilted, schedule a time on my calendar. I’d love to quilt for you!!!

Thanks for stopping by!! Happy quilting! Leisha
