Spiderman


Picture
My Grandson's favourite cartoon is Spiderman. When I saw the pixelated picture of Spiderman's face by Tim Leong (in his book Super Graphic) I knew instantly I had to make a quilt.  It is comprised of 1156 2.5" squared (2" finished) but it actually came together quite quickly.  Don't tell him but he's going to get it for his 5th birthday.  68" x 68"

Sareim has his Spiderman pillow when he comes to visit. I made a Minnie Mouse pillow for Aya so she has a special pillow too. Now Sareim thinks I should make him a pillow because the Spiderman one was bought and not made by me.

Two tie accessories I made for myself.  Also a skirt made from an old sweater and an infinity scarf made from a piece of jersey I had.

2014 - Keystone Quilts Grand Opening.  I didn't make the table runners but I quilted them for Lesley. I also arranged some of the displays for her.

Delectable Bargello - Found this pattern on the internet.  Just love the effect.  Teal crib or lap quilt is 45" x 65".   Multi coloured bed runner is 24" x 65" https://carterquilter.wordpress.com/

2014 My wonky baby quilt

I was invited to a baby shower. I already had a quilt top sewn together but I didn't like the big squares, so I cut the top apart and started sewing the pieces together randomly and slightly wonky.  When I ended up with a large chunk of yellow I decided to add an appliqué. The fabric was full of ladybugs so I enlarged the design. I think the ladybug really makes the quilt.  It is backed with fleece and does not have batting.  I wrote a pattern for it which is available for free at My Pattern Store on Craftsy. 

2014 Burgoyne Illusion

This is a design I've thought about for a while.  I found the beautiful background fabric at Keystone Quilts and got to work on it.  I also wrote the pattern for it while I was making it and it is available here.  
​63" x 63"
