KerryM Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 This is what has kept me so busy, and quiet over the last few weeks. It has felt good to get back in the groove. This one is called Gummie Dots, this was a first time customer to me, her piecing is perfect. Thanks for looking. This one was all freehand.

KerryM Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 This was also a first time customer, and a rush job for her....Most of it was free hand, but some CQ as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LibbyG Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Kerry, They're so pretty. I don't know how you came up with a design for the gummie dots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerryM Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 The Gummie Dots I did bead board in the outer border, pebbles in the black background, and a little loop thing in the arcs, cc' in the 4 patch. The StitchersGarden I tried to keep a running theme by repeating certain elements, but changing thigs up as well to keep the eye moving. I also took this class, a BMO at the LQS. Mine is not finished, but is at the top of the UFO pile..... My camera does not seem to be taking very good pictures, these are the best of all the ones I took, the quilts have already left the house.

KerryM Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Libby, I am not really sure how I came up with it, the fabric did have something to do with the background pebbles,...the rest just happened. SOmetimes i look at a top and know right away, other times I draw a blank and need to ask for help, and sometimes once I get started, something will just pop into my head......

LFQuilts Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Kerry, You did a wonderful job on both quilts. You kept Gummie Dots lively and fun while taking the time to enhance the Stitcher's Garden quilt. I bet both customers are tickled with the results.

PattyJo Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 I love the gummy dots, fabrics and your quilting really go well together. I also like the BOM, but it's hard to see your quilting on that one. Great job. When I take pictures (and I'm by no means a pro at that) I try and have one light source off to the side of the quilt (open window, strong lamp, etc) and then stand where I can see the texture of the quilting the best, usually on the other side from the light and then take the picture. If I try and get the whole quilt straight on, it is very hard to see the stitching especially if the thread is matching the fabric. A while back there was a thread here about taking good pictures, can anyone remember that one. I can't remember who posted it, but it was good suggestions.
