The Backwards Bobbin

I really enjoyed piecing and quilting this quilt. I used the Calico Carriage Quilt Designs: Labyrinth pattern by Debbie Maddie. It was a lot of fun arranging the fabrics and the Northcott Surfaces worked perfectly. The quilting gives homage to Celtic designs.

I love this travel case by and it has so many uses. It’s great for using up scraps in your stash. You can get really creative with color. I use it for my sewing tools and keep it next to my machine. It can be used for crayons, craft items, office items, etc. in the car, school, wherever you are going. What would you use it for?

Here is a great summer idea for kids and for your fabric stash - Library bags! We used the easy to follow pattern from https://www.jedicraftgirl.com/2018/05/library-tote-bag-tutorial.html
With just a little modification so we could quilt the bags. We laid out the panels for quilting and added initials. See your local library for summer programs.

We were very happy to provide runners for the Silent auction at Pawsome Adventures benefit on May 25th. Stop out and bid 😀

Thank you to The Backwards Bobbin for this wonderful auction offering of table runners!

This was so special. My mother in law Priscilla Leavstrom did the top of the quilt. I got the patches on, then we quilted the layers together, got a label for the back and then finished with the binding. Trakr is a very special service dog that we all love.

My friend Susan was commissioned to piece this quilt top of Doctor Who's Tardis. We, at The Backwards Bobbin, turned it around in a couple of days so it could be given as a gift for Christmas. Susan embroidered the words, which looks fabulous. We used the Vortex quilting pattern which is fitting for the Doctor Who theme.

We love helping people finish quilts and this was a special quilt that was finished after the giver had passed away. It is fabric from the Quilt Minnesota 2014 Exclusive Fabric Line by Barb Tourtillotte for . We used the Lulu Flower pattern from . The finished quilt was lovely.
