My Trip To Uniquely Yours

A trip to Sandy's quilt shop outside of Orangeville, Illlinois is a 35 mile ride through the back roads.

This is the road that leads you up to her shop......   A dead end gravel road.     The first time I made a trip to her shop  I thought I would never find it....... 

I would say they have a beautiful layout ......   I know my puppies love it,   I let them run the fields

                                                Sandy's shop is in the lower level of their home. 
   

My boys and girl watching their mama........   I had so many window licks by the time I got back to the car...lol

Sandy and her helper.     BTW   she love the quilt.    We were so busy talking a forgot to take a picture of her with it.   

With a sweet look she asked if I would have time to do two more for the shows and have then back to her by the 30th.     Of coarse I said Yes!!      This is the first of the two,  a simple  fast Fairy quilt.   I will feather the borders and outline the fairies,  maybe some background fill,   depends on the time limit.   I loaded it on the frame last night so it is ready to go today.

Yup! It is Finished

                          I'm on my way to Uniquely Yours Quilt Shop to deliver this quilt ......   

Decided on Fill

Back on the frame.......    I swear this head cold is making my brain fogggy....lol

                                          small crosshatching and lines ......  it's coming to me..lol

Bird Panel Finished I Think

Okay,  here is what I have done so far........    I'm not sure if I should fill in the blue area around the birds and leaves.   If I fill in the background what would I use for a fill???????    Do I want a combination of fills or do I want straight lines to set off the pebbles,  or sun rays,   or   hummmmmmmmmm! 

                                    All the fruit, leaves and birds are outline which gives definition........ 

I just don't want to over quilt and have to pick out stitches.....

Guess I will sleep on it ........

Another Sleigh Panel

This panel I cut the top section off  to make a pillow to match the quilt.    It is just opposite of the other sleigh panel that I quilted.    These are fun and quick to piece, add borders and quilt.    This panel came from Uniquely Yours also.    I went to the shop to  pick up fabric for a doll quilt and spotted the panels on the wall just before Christmas (two weeks before).    I made up a couple of these for Christmas gifts,  fast and easy.    The doll quilt did not get finished .........    Back in the closet until next fall with it.....lol    Did pull out a spring quilt to work on when I'm finished with the bird panel.     As you can see,  I have been busy the last couple of weeks beside showing this house.   

Panels for Uniquely Yours Quilt Shop

This is a panel that I quilted for Uniquely Yours Quilt Shop,  Orangeville , Illinois  for their quilt shows in Texas next month.

the background fill was little loops to make the flowers and birds pop

My Christmas present from Anya........   love it!!

Metro thread that Anya sent me which I will use on another panel quilt.    Love the thread,  it has a shine to it and quilts up really nice.     It is an embroidery  thread........

This is the other panel that I'm quilting for Uniquely Yours.     The colors are beautiful in this panel......

Small bead board border to frame the panel

outline the bird with yellow and purple around the plums,  not sure how I will quilt the background yet

                                        Simple triangle shape to mimic the triangle in the panel .......
