This is Yvonne’s Island Sunrise quilt done in batik fall colors. This is the ninth one I have quilted since our guild held a Judy Niemeyer workshop for this pattern back in September 2012. I quilted free hand swirls in the outer border and in the background of the curved blocks. I SID around all the circles and spikes and used medium brown So Fine thread. We are enjoying a break in the cold weather with a high of –7’c today… feels like we are having a heat wave!
Tomorrow our guild is having a UFO day and since I do not have any UFO’s I’ll have to start a project so I have a UFO by the end of the day! This is what I’ll be playing with, the fabric collection is called Sunnyside and I’ll share what pattern I’m making once I have a few blocks made.
Sunnyside is a lovely collection. I am waiting in anticipation to see what pattern you will be using. Will it be a new Highway 10 Designs pattern?

ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always Kathy!
ReplyDeleteNo Ufo's....it was a shock to read this. LOL.
ReplyDeleteYou seriously don't have ANY UFOs? Not even ones you don't want to admit to? Wow.
ReplyDeleteIs it tricky to quilt these Judy Niemeyer quilts? I am making Prairie Star, which has similar units to these, and I have noticed that there is a great deal of bulk where several of the points come together at the base. I worry that the quilter may break a needle!
Kathy: Beautiful quilting! And awesome photos. Isn't it nice to take photos without the metal parts on the
ReplyDeletecamera freezing to yer mittens :)
Did you enjoy your day of quilt at the UFO day? I hope there are photos of the new blocks and quilt.
