Small Quilts

Patchwork Autumn is an original design by Karel and was created out of her love for the fall season. Hand appliqué hollyhocks, flowers, a goldfinch and pumpkins are surrounded with blocks that include the friendship star, pinwheel, Ohio star and churn dash pattern to name a few. Half square triangles and hourglass blocks add to its charm as well. The border fabric features little flowers in fall colors on a brown background. Beautiful hand quilting and appliqué make this quilt a beauty.

Five Dresden plates, set on point are featured in this fine, traditional quilt. The Dresden plates are machine pieced and then hand appliquéd onto the background squares. They are surrounded by Karel’s signature triple borders and corner squares as the sashing. Cross-hatching has been hand quilted on the set in triangles to create a small diamond pattern. Many different fabric make up the petals in each Dresden plate for a “scrappy” look. A small floral print in a soft green was used to create a perfect frame for all the colors.

This sweet hedgehog quilt is just waiting to find a good home, either hanging on the wall or as a treasured blanket for the special little person in your life. The border fabric sets the color theme in blues and browns which are then echoed in coordinating prints. The patchwork pattern seems to circle around the central hedgehog critter. The hand quilting and appliqué work are beautifully done too in this one of a kind quilt.

Red, White, and blues in charming paisleys, stripes and floral fabrics are used for the log cabin blocks in this lovely small quilt. The placement of light and darks are artfully arranged to create the perfect frame for the hand-appliquéd blocks. Tulips and buds along with flowers have been used, note the outside flower centers have been fussy cut so a small star is in the circle. The fabric with clusters of flowers on a Swiss dot background fabric completes the look.
