Pretty Clamshells

A couple of weeks ago I taught my Pretty Clamshell quilt to eight fun ladies at The Patchwork Angel


This is the class sample.

You will have to turn your head for some of the photos (sorry) to see how the girls progressed in class.

Gale came to class with a plan to create a background then appilque images on top.  I have seen it finished already and it looks great.  I love that students take what they learn and go another step forward.

thank you ladies for coming to my class and sharing your time and humour with each other. I look forward to seeing these finished someday, no pressure....

and hopefully in another class with me.

The next class I am teaching is a Lone Star.  This is over two Saturdays, one in May and the other in June.  Contact the girls at The Patchwork Angel for details, last I heard there are a couple of spots left.

Chocolate Layer Cakes

Earlier this year I taught my Chocolate Layer Cake quilt again.  Here are some of the girls quilts I have just finished quilting for them.  I actually quilted them one after the other and had such fun.
Vicki's with a stunning dark pink background, punching up the piecing.



 This one belongs to Barb N, she came to my first class.  This is actually her third quilt using my pattern.


The border fabric is perfect with the lime green on the brown.


Janey A made this fresh and bright version, the orange sashing really adds character to the quilt.


These are Barbs earlier quilts.  She made one for each granddaughter, only changing the borders. 
So cute.



They use different fabrics for the piecing, backgrounds, and borders giving each quilt a personality of its own, and one suited to the owner.

So Sew on girls
