Henley's Boots

We have a new cowgirl in the family so I thought she needed some boots.

I saw a boot quilt like this once so I designed my own boot block.

Stars and straight line quilting.

As you can see my quilt did a little shifting on me when I quilted it. Oops!

Streets Shriners

Sorry really bad photos of this quilt. 

A very simple Shriner's Hospital quilt.

Backing

City Center

In January the STLMQG challenged the guild to finish their works in

 progress in a year long challenge. I usually don't have projects that 

are unfinished so I chose to use some of my older material to make a quilt.

I had the backing material ( Center City by Jay McCarroll)

for a few years and loved the colors. I finally found a pattern that inspired

 me in the Generation Q Magazine. The Art Gallery Fabric Staff

 had a pattern called  Modern Log Cabin in the Jan./ Feb. 2014 issue.

I really just used the pattern for inspiration and added my own touch.

The quilting is all straight line in squares.

The Quilt finished at 60 x 60

My quilt will be at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, October 25-27 2014.

If you get to go take a picture for me!

This is the color inspiration, Center City by Jay McCarroll. 

Check out all the stitching on that black backing.

I had to pack the quilt and try not to get creases, hope it worked!
