Some quilts come together quickly, others take years. This Eclipse Art Quilt waited four years to be completed, but it finally is!
It seems that each new quilt that comes through my studio becomes my favorite. I haven't been blogging much lately, especially about quilting that I have been doing for clients, but this one is definitely worth sharing. It's a stunner, and my new favorite. Please excuse all of the phone photos. This quilt is called "Eclipse." It was designed and pieced by Kimberly Bourne of Main Street Market Designs. The pattern is currently available as a preorder for $3 off what the regular price will be. It's paper pieced, and Kimberly's patterns are very detailed. I immediately knew when I saw this quilt for the first time that it would be a perfect candidate for straight line geometric quilting within the triangles. I took this photo at night. Mmm, texture. Most of the techniques I used on this quilt were inspired by Angela Walters' Dot-to-dot Quilting. I just love the rainbow of colors from the Alison Glass fabrics (Sunprints and Ex Libris). It was just so FUN to quilt this. As much as I love the front, the back is pretty great too. In the center I decided to quilt some curves, echoing the appearance of curves on the rest of the quilt. Seriously, I love the texture on the back. You can preorder this amazing quilt pattern now here! Thank you Kimberly for letting me quilt it for you! This gorgeous quilt is hanging this weekend in the Andover Fabrics booth at International Quilt Market.

Bleaching black fabric results in an orange solar eclipse design. I free-motion quilted the fabric for a quick and easy commemorative quilt!
I realized this week that the upcoming total solar eclipse should be commemorated with a quilt. I designed an easy small quilt that goes together quickly. Maybe you'd like to make one, too. I'm calling it Moonshadow. It's 15" x 25". Here's a printable version. Here's what you'll need for a 15" x 25" quilt:

I was inspired to make this quilt while watching the solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, dubbed the "Great American Eclipse". Some fabrics are ice dyed using colors like nightshade and raspberry. Others were dyed using a wax resist method. The fabric is 100% Pima cotton. I quilted with gentle curvy lines that echo each other. Two moons are wrapped around the sides to continue on the back. It is sandwiched with Hobbs 80/20 batting. The contrasting binding is sewn to the front of the quilt and then wrapped around to the back and handsewn. Comes with a sleeve and a dowel so all you need to do is hang it on your wall. Measurement: 18” x 18”
