Sandy is Lincoln’s sitter. She has been with us even before Lincoln so she has been a family friend for a very long time. Recently she was admiring a specialty quilt that I made for another friend and I told her I would make one for her that featured something she loved. Did I mention that Sandy is an amazing photograper? Well, she is. So I wanted to make her quilt with a camera theme. I asked her to send me some photographs she had taken….some of her favorites. Having received them I started laying out a design that would include a camera and film and this is what I came up with. The camera and film roll are applique. The black and white film is pieced fabric made to look like film. I printed Sandy’s photos on EQ8 Satin Printable Fabric Sheets. The border fabric with cameras I got through Joann’s. This quilt took way more time in planning than I anticipated but I was happy with the results. And I think Sandy liked it!

Lincoln wasn’t happy that I didn’t let him jump up on this quilt for the photo so he jumped up in the window seat and stuck his tongue out at me. LOL! I love this jelly roll quilt. I have been trying to alter some jelly roll patterns to make them into Quilt as You Go patterns and have done several over the last month but this is by far my favorite. I love a scrappy look in a quilt and I just adore this group of fabrics. I used “Flea Market by Lori Holt” for Riley Blake Designs jelly roll. It is just perfect for this quilt. We have an upcoming Jelly Roll class at The Studio with two seats left. Check it out here if you are interested in learning what to do with those amazing jelly rolls.

This is a super fun quilt to make. While it looks time consuming because of all the blocks there is a secret to it that makes it go so fast…..plus all your seams will line up beautifully. Another big bonus is that it takes only a small amount of each fabric and you can even use fat quarters. You know you have been buying them so now you can use them! 🙂 Here is the link with more information and to register to be sure to get your spot!

Just take a look at the great paintings and sewing projects we have coming up at The Studio. Soon we will have all of these listed for registration. Paint some amazing things….like these welcoming doors or the red tulips. And you can learn to make some really cute Blackbird quilt blocks or Patriotic Stars. The Memory Quilt is perfect for the old shirts you’ve been saving. The phone/tablet stands are a favorite and we have a wall hanging that helps you learn to use all the decorative stitches on your machine. Let’s create together soon!
