This is a string quilt made for my sister, Jo Ann with color coordinated scraps. I paper-pieced each block. I quilted it at Just Quilting with Nancy.Jolene Knighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11077921548601523137noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726539428860667339.post-2384073020564188072011-11-22T14:39:00.000-08:002011-11-22T14:39:45.077-08:00Roxanne's Quilt...When Christine and the kids moved back from Texas they left behind Roxanne's baby quilt so I made this twin to replace it. The scraps are from my friend Jamie Wallace. Fun, beautiful fabrics from her kids aprons she makes and sells at Saturday Market.<br />

It's very country. Still trying to discover what I like and dislike at this point. I think I've discovered that I do like the Modern Quilt style. Now I just need to make more "Modern" looking quilts :)<br />

I decided to make this crib sized, pink, flowered quilt. It was an easy sew but I think is nice to look at. The fabric was all from an estate sale my mother came across in Beaverton. I have an entire shelf of fabric which I bought for only $2.50 a large bundle. The quilter had her fabrics grouped by color and luckily my mom was one of the first to find the sale. She picked up all the maroon and purple and I took the red, green, brown, blue, pink, cream and black bundles! It has given me quite the jump start to my stash and has inspired me to do numerous quilts this year. I wanted a simple pattern because this was the first quilt I ever did the quilting on. I did small stippling and it turned out really great.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsnjXUZ4mkQ8DlIOycxnjmuO5mfHYZhZJbqZ9cLhnaaZdbqjOC3KlUCcRZ4ESIBpY0Rua621lDRXp9Jk_p9xin5e5xIvH8LYVUnHavNaF4jC_aXE6y58zL1J9Zw0d4eoWO2hhzi5rx3hs/s1600/IMG_1069_edited.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320px" m$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsnjXUZ4mkQ8DlIOycxnjmuO5mfHYZhZJbqZ9cLhnaaZdbqjOC3KlUCcRZ4ESIBpY0Rua621lDRXp9Jk_p9xin5e5xIvH8LYVUnHavNaF4jC_aXE6y58zL1J9Zw0d4eoWO2hhzi5rx3hs/s320/IMG_1069_edited.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br />

Janine Dale, a friend from Imago Dei commented that she liked the colors when I showed it to her unfinished. When I found out she was expecting a baby, I decided to finish it. She had a baby girl and named her Eliora. The quilt turned out okay, it’s one of David’s favorites. I do like the flower and stippling pattern on top.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVef9lO-v3FfFjsER-WGjAB3uQ6w3fOplgjEnr2BGZncT6J5XVSF51vbBpMFpubJpm6pxKNIGkWdGaDJpPnyMmazOGEriJQ6V7KQt17c6oFQu-WRIlpc8akW3eWy2mc6Sq_1CKPC1amNQ/s1600/IMG_1257_edited.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250px" m$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVef9lO-v3FfFjsER-WGjAB3uQ6w3fOplgjEnr2BGZncT6J5XVSF51vbBpMFpubJpm6pxKNIGkWdGaDJpPnyMmazOGEriJQ6V7KQt17c6oFQu-WRIlpc8akW3eWy2mc6Sq_1CKPC1amNQ/s320/IMG_1257_edited.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: none;"><span style="language: EN;"> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: none;"><span style="font-weight: bold; language: EN; mso-ansi-language: EN; text-decoration: underline; text-underline: single;">3 Flannel doll Quilts 2009</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: none;"><span style="language: EN; mso-ansi-language: EN;"></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: none;"><span style="language: EN; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I decided to get out the flannel blocks left over from earlier quilts and use them up.

It was eventually sold to Katie Clem at Village Preschool Auction in April 2010 for $45. I like this pattern. It was good practice for me to get the corners of the triangle to line up and be sewn just right. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXdQZN72P4ywdSHO2P9x1PfGnj1G5l5fhyphenhyphen_Xqz3bOqfL3lHgyK50t38L9WoINKeDh5N-fEwZvgKqPXlHtFWYPGB4D4drqGtQGUkfy3mBmtrg8P_ABBVg6-9EWIBHO1brmrOvHUG3BNWcM/s1600/IMG_1061_edited.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320px" m$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXdQZN72P4ywdSHO2P9x1PfGnj1G5l5fhyphenhyphen_Xqz3bOqfL3lHgyK50t38L9WoINKeDh5N-fEwZvgKqPXlHtFWYPGB4D4drqGtQGUkfy3mBmtrg8P_ABBVg6-9EWIBHO1brmrOvHUG3BNWcM/s320/IMG_1061_edited.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: none;"><br />

It was made in Denver in during the winter of 2000/2001, while married to Scott Surine. I was hoping to conceive a baby at that time. I designed the quilt on the computer with solid colors, then Scott scanned each individual piece of fabric to see what it would turn out like. I don’t know why I didn’t get a book and find a pattern for my first quilt. I didn’t even know one person who made quilts. I machine pieced the squares, not chain linking them or using any quick method like a rotary cutter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I hand quilted it in diagonals. After a short year of marriage, Scott called it quits, not wanting to have a child with me or a move to Oregon. I moved back on my own. And when I crossed the state line, tears ran down my face. Happy to be moving home and starting a new life with my family but, sad<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>things didn’t go as I had expected. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><br />
