A Longarm Double Header

A longarm double header is quilting two quilts in one day. I did just that recently, quilting these two cheerful, colorful modern quilts made by my sister, Quilter Bonnie!


This pattern came from Love Patchwork & Quilting magazine, Issue 10, from a special Vintage Summer insert, designed by Jeni Baker of "In Color Order". 

This is the third time I've quilted this particular pattern. See the first time here, and the second time here.

The quilting is "Slip Stitch".

The backing is this extra wide floral that blends so nicely with the top.

Quilter Bonnie used Amanda Jean Nyberg, A.K.A. Crazy Mom Quilts, fabric line, Good Neighbors, to make this sweet quilt. 


And second up on the longarm is this cute jelly roll quilt, pattern by Zen Chic--Jelly Bellies For You, also made by Quilter Bonnie!


Don't you love the seafoam thrown in there?!


The quilting is "Bossa Nova".


The backing is this beautiful blue extra-wide backing.


This quilt will brighten up my niece's wall in her newly updated bedroom. Loving it, Quilter Bonnie! 

I finished the second quilt at 10:15 PM, determined to get them both done in one day!

Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy

  6. TWO quilts in ONE day?!?! Better you than me!! I have to remind myself not to quilt for more that an hour or two at a time. Otherwise, my everything hurts! You and your sister did a lovely job on both of these cheerful quilts.

  7. Both of those quilts are so cute! You chose the right quilting patterns for sure. I'd say you hit some home runs during your double header.
