Regina Grewe sent me these photos of her Welcome to the North Pole quilt. Isn’t it lovely! Well done, Regina and thank you for sharing it with us!

She said: “Finished in 2015, made with a little help from my friends a lot of buttons and embellishment was added. It’s a family treasure now.”

Many thanks to Lis, who emailed this week to say that she hasn’t started on the Welcome Back To The North Pole quilt yet, but she is making a wall hanging using the table runner design and she shared her progress with me.  It’s not layered and quilted yet. She used needle turn appliqué, reverse needle turn appliqué, mola and broidery perse techniques and she has a bird button to go on the roof.

Don’t you love the batik LIs used in the background?! That dark swirly blue is perfect behind the rest of the applique. Well done Lis and thank you for sharing!

Shoshana Vogel sent me this photo of her finished quilt. She wrote:

I finally finished and photographed my Steve’s Birds quilt and thought you would like to see it. thank you so much, i loved every minute of working on this one. i made it to hang in a specific space in our home so i had to play around with the final layout.

The birds look great and stand out on their blocks. You did a great job of setting them together to fit your space. And I love the texture of the sashing fabric and the way it sets the blocks apart without overpowering them. I don’t know if this quilt will end up in this space, but it does look really good against the dark books. Well done, Shoshana, and thank you for sharing!
