Lumber Jack & Jill

Posted on: March 26th, 2020 by Lorna McMahon

I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok….   This quilt makes me very very very happy. Those silly faces look so fabulous. The plaid shirts with pockets turned out so realistic! And those crazy toques!!!   Quilted using a black/grey/white variegated thread on top and in the bobbin in organic wavy lines using my walking foot […]

Selvage Expedition – Spool Blocks

Posted on: March 12th, 2020 by Lorna McMahon

I am not a “scrap quilter”…. But I am a quilter. So naturally, I don’t want to throw any scraps away! I have been saving and using my scraps along the way. But up until now, I have not done anything with my selvage strips. Except save them. I don’t cut a selvage from yardage. […]

Here comes Peter Cottontail… And his brood of little baby chicks!!!   I made this festive table runner in anticipation of spring! And our upcoming Easter 2020!!!

These google eyed guys are fun to make! My Yippies quilt is finally quilted and bound…. And will begin it’s journey across the pond come Monday. I used solids pieced from any “full width of” that I could find in my stash.   I used 3″ squares folded into triangles for hanging tabs on the […]

This was only in the unquilted pile for a short while. And now I am proud to announce a Grumpy Cat finish! I quilted this up quick with my usual wavy lines using my walking foot. I chose a soft grey thread for on top and a weird beige for the bobbin – both to […]

Life in the POND

Posted on: January 23rd, 2020 by Lorna McMahon

This was a fast and fun finish!   Say hello to my little froggy!     I had the most fun choosing fabrics for this quilt. I love the way these dots all play off of each other.       Another fresh dusting of snow made for the perfect backdrop. The backing was pieced […]

She Shoots!!! She Scores!!!! And the crowd goes wild! Yes, folks! That’s another finish for 2020!!!     The photo shoot didn’t go too bad! A fresh dusting of snow is always welcomed as a backdrop.     At times the wind actually cooperated nicely!     By far, my most favourite parts of the […]

Kangaroo & Joey2

Posted on: January 10th, 2020 by Lorna McMahon

Kangaroo & Joey2 is my first finish for 2020!!! Have you ever seen a kangaroo in the show? Most of the fabrics used to make these adorable mama and baby kangaroos were from the Sun Print 2019 collection by Alison Glass for Andover Fabrics.   And then when it came time for the backing…. I […]
