Japanese Kites

Finished quilt top. I picked up this fabric when living in Japan and recently discovered it in a pile of linen that I have. I decided that it would make a cute baby quilt.

Harvest Moon

A look at the bed runner on my queen size bed,

I made a change from making this into a quilt with squares to a bed runner with stacked coin strips. All was quilted on the vintage machine except for the decorative stitch.


This will be the center to a quilt that I have just started. I was practicing stippling on the Classic Lady with this material when the idea for my quilt came together. I will arrange some blue and cream color rectangles in a checkerboard pattern that will surround this piece.

Japanese spring table runner

Years ago while living in Tokyo, I picked up materials to be used as table runners. The adorable bunny print was part of a little sack purse that I never used. So, I dismantled the purse to use in this table runner. The pretty white flowers with the pink background came from a table runner that lacked something. The white and green fabrics were leftovers from previous quilts. This little project not only produce me with a new table runner for Easter, but also gave me the opportunity to practice my free motion quilting.
