Two older, Jeanetter from Inchworm Fabrics and her blog,
Margaret from Average Quilter,
then my younger sister Beverly of Quilters Corner.
Each sister has their own nitch in the quilting world.
As you see, Jeanette has her own store, Margaret has her own longarm quilting and embroidery business, and Beverly just recently got a longarm.
My mother is just as amazing, she is the long time quilter, she use to tailor clothes and make all of us girls clothes for school. Happy Mother's Day to all of my sisters and mother!!!
Jeanette just recently wrote up the pattern for this quilt "Oklahoma Twister"...what a fitting name.
Here it is made up
Here is my square....this was so fast, fun, and the pattern is so easy to understand. I am trying to put the breaks on myself and not cut out enough squares for a quilt. Why....because I have soooooooooooooooo much to finish. So her making this pattern is a true motivator for me...gonna get a few things done and then I am going to make a quilt and in my lime green....Ooooo la la
Jeanette is giving away a pattern on her blog and I am giving away one here. If you don't want to wait that long you can go to her store.

ReplyDeleteWhat fun to have four sisters all involved in the quilting world. Love Jeanette's pattern and your choice of the lime green is so fun. Happy Mother's Day!

beautiful! I would love to try one of these, thanks for the chance to win !!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mothers Day!!
Very fun pattern! How great that your Mom and sisters share your passion!
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have knowledgeable others around that can share a few tips & tricks with you...I'm learning all I can by trial and error (some days, mostly just error), and YouTube. Thankfully, there are kind people like you & your sisters and Fons & Port, Missouri Star, etc. Loved how this pattern turned out & I can see how it becomes a twister!
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely pattern. It must be fun to share your quilting interests with your sisters and your mom. It's like having your own mini quilting guild.
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day!
Great pattern! I love the lime green and think it would look great with more bright colors to make a rainbow quilt! Thanks for the chance to win the pattern.
ReplyDeleteLove the pattern--looks great in all the fabrics!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt . Love the pattern. Thanks so much for sharing
ReplyDeleteWhat a great pattern! I live in OK in the tornado alley and have been through 2, which was 2 to many! The quilt really is a good example of the twisting and turning a tornado can go through.
ReplyDeleteI love that pattern Barb.
ReplyDeleteHow cool that your sisters can longarm your quilts for you :) Seriously, it's great your family quilts, and I love the pattern.
ReplyDeleteI've been having that same problem with comments~ some make it to my email and some don't... no idea why! Cute pattern~ it will look great in your green. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOklahoma Twister looks like a great design! Love the motion in it.
ReplyDeleteI love the tornado implications of the design. Especially as we had 15 or 17 strike just west and north of us in Nebraska. This would make a great benefit quilt for one of the small towns that were extensively damaged/nearly destroyed.
