Quilt Qwazy Queens Blog Hop

It's hard to believe but this is
my 4th year of quilting.
I started off really small. 
It was a quilted bag, that
I entered into a competition with
Moda.
 While I didn't win, it did
jump start this love of
Fabric and Thread
That makes me a Quilter. (I did make it to the top 10)
  Well, my blog name does say a lot as well.

Here is just a small bit of what
I have done in four years.


Designed and hand quilted by me. 
This is just one of my favorite quilts.


I also enjoyed finishing this
quilt up.  It was my WIP pile
deciding on exactly how I would like to
finish up.


And this pretty quilt named "Jared's Star" created for
a young man that recently
past away from lung cancer.
It was a very emotional quilt
to finish creating.


I also decided this year to head
up a blog hop, a new adventure
that makes me a bit Quilting Crazy.
Here are the first two month blocks,
You can find out more here.



Most of what I have created,
has gone to others, so I decided to make a little
something of my own.
Here is my very recent creation.


A little luck of the Irish to add to my table.
I finished it just in time to
enjoy over the last few day.


It is completely hand quilted.
I used HeatnBond Lite for
the clovers and then was able to
blanket stitch around the clover.
You can find some other great products to use over
at Thermoweb , where I contributing blogger at.



I am writing the pattern for this little cutie,
and would love to have a few pattern testers.
If you are interested, please contact me.

  15. Imagine how floored we all are to find out you've only been quilting for four years. I feel like I've known you for the last 2 1/2 years, so it's like a huge HUGE WoW, to find out you've only been quilting for four years. Amy, these are beautiful quilts, and while I normally don't care for working with solids, I thought your hexie quilt was amazing. Jared's Star very emotional, I can certainly understand why it would be difficult. I'm so happy that you're doing a truly fun botm this year also, it's always a great and new experience to hostess a blog hop, so doing a Block Of The Month also sounds like a lot of fun. I'm also lucky enough to share time with you, enjoy your enthusiasm, and your warm advice and feel sew incredibly... lucky to count you amongst my friends. It's been an amazing journey thus far, I can't wait to see what the next four years brings.. :)

It is so much fun to see how people make them, fabrics they use, etc. Great patterns. I'm sure you have at least a dozen people volunteering to pattern test for you, so when the pattern comes out, I will have to buy it and make a baby quilt for someone born next March! ~dezertskyquilts.wordpress.com
