A little while ago, I told you that I had been working on quilting several (10) small quilts for Stacy of Buttermilk Basin. And by small, I mean less than 1 square yard. They are part of a group of 12 patterns, designed to be done on your own or as part of a monthly sew-along. It is called the Basin Quilt Club. Pictured below are several of the quilts I did. I can only find pictures of 7 of the 10.
Now for a piece of humble pie--on the last picture, upper right side, you might detect a lack of quilting. For some reason, I sewed the circle but not the feathers around it. Didn't see it until Stacy brought it up, and now she won't let me take it back to fix it because she thinks it's good to not be perfect or some such malarky. All I can say is I might just have to creep into her studio and sneak it back home to finish it up right!
Most of the fabrics used in these samples are reproductions of fabric that would have been in existence during the period of the Civil War. They really complement the traditional blocks she is using. So my quilting needed to also be somewhat along the traditional line, plus able to stay in the background so the photography for the patterns would look beautiful.
Thanks, Stacy, for the pleasure of being a little part of your creativity!

Pam, that is your "Amish" mistake! Just let it go! BTW, I think the quilting on these quilts looks great.
Thanks, Jan!
