Steve’s Birds, Show and tell…

Barbara Hotelling sent the photo of her Steve’s Birds quilt top and I want to share it with you all because her birds are just wonderful!

Wanda wrote: I learned a lot while doing this project. I did the smaller version/size of the pattern and many of the pieces were quite small. I really didn’t believe I had the skills to do the appliqué. I don’t think I could have done it without your Appliqué Mastery class and your various u-tube videos. I’ve come to enjoy needle turn appliqué, even though I am extremely slow!  That’s ok – it’s the process, right?  Anyway, while this is far from perfect I am happy with the result.  I just started hand quilting, so it will be a while before the quilt is complete.  I am certainly enjoying the project.  Thanks for everything you do!

Thank you, Wanda, for your kind words and for sharing your quilt! I hope you enjoy hand quilting it and I look forward to seeing it then too. May you have many happy stitches!

Aunt Millie’s Floral Cabins, Show and Tell…

Floral Cabins is the Peace River Quilt Guild 2027 Opportunity Quilt. Learn more about this wonderful quilt below…

This quilt top was donated to our Guild by the husband of former Guild member Connie Deckenbach, after she passed away. Connie had completed the center Log Cabin but the wide borders were unfinished.

Linda Macklin found the perfect pattern for the border & purchased “Aunt Millie’s Garden” by Becky Goldsmith and Linda Jenkins. Once the written permission from Becky Goldsmith, arrived allowing us to use the border pattern Linda, along with JoAnn Burtscher, Pat Moore and Jane Schurr donated all the bright batiks and hand appliquéd the border.

Guild Member Robin Kinley quilted the quilt and Pat Moore did the binding. The label was the finishing touch made by Pam Hunt.

This quilt was entered into the PRQG’s 2025 quilt show and won First Place in the Collaborative Category.

I’m sure Connie is smiling down on her friends and I know whoever wins this opportunity quilt will love and treasure it. Thank you, Linda, for sharing it with us!

ddhulet is this week’s lucky winner! She will receive this stack of wool from from last year that we didn’t sell because, even though it says it is “brick”, it isn’t. It includes lovely shades of a raspberry pink all its own. So, one lucky winner will end up with this Wool Stack dyed by Tracy Trevethan. Leave a comment and perhaps the random number generator will choose you!
