The end of October had a couple projects for me. The Moonlight Quilters' Guild asked me to quilt two items. First was the President's Quilt, a gift that is given each year to the person who holds the presidency. This year it was Marilynn, who is all about bright colors and contrast! 
I created a custom design to fill the area with a motif that resembles sun rays and icicles, which was quilted in varigated threads to match the "hot" and "cold" areas.
Next was the guild's Christmas quilt, which was a group effort by all the members of the guild. I found a poinsettia motif as part of a more complicated design, 
and modified it to be more of a free-form pattern. It was a lot of fun!
Now on the racks is an Amish style sampler quilt for Michele, which is going to have feathered cables around the borders, and echo quilting throughout most of the middle of the quilt.Karen
