Professional Longarm Quilting Services
The pantograph Feather Grande by Bethanne Nemesh was a perfect choice for this quilt.
I pieced the backing for Joan and also trimmed her quilt.
I almost always prepare the binding for Joan’s quilts so that she is able to get to the binding even faster!
Let me know how I can help you get your quilts ready for binding!

Terri chose the pantograph Kindling for the quilting design and it really added so much movement and visual appeal oh and the texture!
I also pieced the backing and of course trimmed her quilt for her so that it was ready for binding. I always check with my customers before trimming and find that most people are more than happy to have me do this step for them. All of the trimmings are returned with the quilt.
It’s not often that a quilt catches Eriks eye but this one sure did!
My customer chose the pantograph Waterworld for the quilting design as well as took me up on my free backing piecing and trimming service. Every quilt back and top is pressed and carefully loaded onto my machine before I begin quilting.
The density of the quilting is also important to consider if the quilt is to be used and washed fairly often.
How fun will this quilt be to receive under the tree this year … it’s for the makers tractor loving guy!!! My guy asked for one too…
Big News on the life front! We found our Christmas tree!
I guess we are just a couple of old souls as we just love having a real tree for Christmas.
Every year we visit the tree farm and carefully choose our tree. It will be set up and decorated before next weekend. I love the addition of light the tree brings to our home during the less day light days this time of year. 11 more days until Winter Solstice 😊
The owners of this tree farm we recently discovered have retired and moved…yesterday I met the new owner and am so happy to say that she is so excited about their new home and venture.
On the quilting front my days and evenings have been busy helping others finish their quilts!
This one is currently being quilted, and in fact is more than halfway finished. I pieced the backing for its maker, something that I offer for free to my customers and for the most part am taken up on the offer.
I also like to take the time to press each quilt top and backing before loading onto the Longarm.
How sweet is this quilt that will be gifted to its makers Granddaughter this Christmas.
Terri chose the pantograph Star Swirl for this quilt which flows beautifully over the stars, moons and planets throughout the fabrics.

Melissa used the same collection of fabric for 2 quilts that are similar but very different.
I chose to quilt the first one with the pantograph Daisy Swirl.
The design really shows well on the fireside backing.
The second quilt was quilted with the pantograph Hearts and Blooms…
Backed with yellow fireside.
Both quilts are so sweet and will be so snuggly for two little girls who will be receiving them for Christmas.
Sometimes some simple swirls are just the ticket for adding movement and interest to a quilt.
I love the beautiful stitches!
One the back as well!
Most people prefer to have me trim their quilts and have them ready to bind.
The sun was shining yesterday!! Depending on where you live that might not be something worth noting. Living in Northwestern Ontario as we edge closer to winter solstice the daylight especially the sunlight is shorter lived each day.
Finding the right light to capture the true colours in the quilts that I photograph becomes more challenging as the days become shorter. Thankfully I have a large window beside my Longarm…
So on to todays quilt. Michelle pieced this quilt for a friend who requested a quilt and her friend wanted red. Many of the fabrics are from the French General collections by Moda.
I chose the pantograph Rhapsody which adds such a lovely flow of flowers and leaves without being overstated. The density of quilting is a perfect balance for a bed quilt.
Michelle purchased the backing from Donna at Fuelled by Fabric in Pass Lake.
Joanne made her quilts for her daughters who both had very different tastes in colour.
Yesterdays quilt was soft and muted and todays is a deeper batik quilt.
It was quilted with the pantograph A Little Bit of This…
Kim inherited her Mother in Laws stash and has had a lot of fun using it up!
This is her third queen size quilt and as she told me when she picked it up it was her most challenging and most fun to make…though her next quilt is pretty amazing as well.
Working with a variety of cottons that had different weights along with working with so much bias can be a challenge however with patience and care this quilt really came together well…
Kim chose the Pantograph Here and There for her quilt.
It is a favourite design of many, it resembles hearts in a subtle manor and the density offers perfect coverage which will give this quilt longevity for many years of use.
I love the added borders which really add to its beauty.
The backing really showcases the stitching!
