SwordfishThis is the Swordfish pattern from Quiltworx. I stepped outside of my box to use strong black and white fabrics from the Graphix range by Island Batik. This is a 99" x 99" queen size. | Tequila Lime (Queen)This beautiful, vibrant quilt is another design from Quiltworx, with fabrics from the Cheers collection from Island Batik. The 68" x 68" Tequila Lime design was made into a 99" x 99" queen size by adding the Princess Tiara border. | Dinner Plate DahliaSOLD. Another elegant Dinner Plate Dahlia quilt - a classic example of how different choices of colour can almost render this a different quilt. In teals and browns, this one is calm and elegant. |

Dinner Plate DahliaThis is the Queen version of the 4th Technique of the Month from Quiltworx. I used just 2 whites and 1 ombre to create this quilt. It was quite a challenge to fussy cut all the pieces, but I am thrilled with the result. | Lady of the LakeA beautiful, intricate quilt designed by Jacqueline de Jonge. The blues and aquas in this ebb and flow like a calm evening across the lake. One of my favourites! | Circle of LifeDesigned by Jacqueline de Jonge. This must be one of the most popular BeColourful quilts. It is fun to make, with lots of different techniques. |
Spring FeverDesigned by Jacqueline de Jonge. I had these fabrics in my stash, and decided that they did indeed look very "Spring" like. | AuroraSOLD. Designed by Jacqueline de Jonge from BeColourful Quilts, this stunningly intricate design is embellished with thousands of tiny crystals. | InfinityOne of Jacqueline de Jonge's most challenging designs, and certainly one of the most challenging that I have undertaken. I changed the original colours from rainbow and black to a deep teal background with jewel colours. It is decorated with thousands of tiny Swarovski crystals. this one 2nd place Viewer's Choice at the Victoria Quilt Show. |
Enchanting StarsAnother challenging quilt from BeColourful. I love the asymmetry of the design, and the way it leads the eye through pathways around the quilt. | Fire Island HostaOne of my favourites. This was the first time that I really "stepped out of the box" with regard to using a more vibrant colour palette. This quilt gained a 1st place at the Parksville Quilt Show in 2015, and was chosen to be on the front of the "Quilt Canada" catalogue in 2015. | Glacier StarAnother of the Quiltworx technique of the month programs. I agonised over colour for this quilt, and ended up making the New York Beauty block three times before I was happy with the colour. |
Dragon StarI loved making this quilt as it had no Y seams! This one was a nod to Canada 150, although my red and black was softened by using a creamy background. | Mariner's CompassSOLD. One of the Quiltworx "Technique of the Month" quilts, this is the Queen size. Beautifully custom quilted by Ardelle Kerr, the Rose City Quilter. This quilt was displayed at Quilt Canada National Juried Show. | Paradise in BloomsSOLD. |
Prismatic StarAnother Prismatic Star, this time using black, white and red with a black and white etched background. Again, the choice of fabrics make a huge difference. | Prismatic StarTo date, the most popular class I have taught. This one is very cleverly thought out, and is an absolute gem to put together. And so fast! | Island SunriseI decided to play a little with the border of this one ... and I was pleased with the result! |
Fractured Paint BoxUsing pre-cut strips, this quilt is fast to put together, and is a great beginner project. Quite a different look to the traditional stars. | EightOne of the Quiltworx series of "Leaf" patterns, this one is also fast to put together. It is the only Judy Niemeyer quilt that I have made from fabrics that are NOT batiks. | Misty Mountain PondSOLD. This Judy Niemeyer paper pieced quilt deviates from the original pattern, which has bullrushes in each corner. I decided to put on Spring Gentians, which remind me of my visits to the mountain meadows in Switzerland. |
Feathered StarSOLD. This Feathered Star is a Judy Niemeyer paper piecing quilt. I started making this, and realised there wasn't enough contrast in my original selection of fabrics for the centre star and feathers - so completely started again with different fabrics! | Winter Wonderland table runnerThis pretty table runner uses the Snowflake block. Lots of sewing time needed for those little snowflake points! But worth it. | CrackersSOLD. This is a great beginners quilt to the Judy Niemeyer method of foundation paper piecing. It took me only a week to make - evening sewing only! |
HappinessA pretty little quilt that is a great introduction to the BeColourful techniques. |
