My Le Petite project Mon Ami is now completed! It's been quilted, bathed in tea, rinsed and dried for an old crinkle feel. As you see I did not add the borders and I love it!
My Mon Ami will be a perfect basket stuffing sort of quilt.
I've been wanting to quilt a log cabin motif so I pulled out this top called Fish Creek Cabin and started custom quilting it today. I'm not finished and have a way to go but thought I'd share a peek.Marcie at Patchalot Patterns is the designer of Fish Creek Cabin and many more wonderful patterns that you can find at her website and don't miss her blog to see her new pattern called Stitchin' Time.

Mon Ami is a little cutie Mary! I'm working on mine.
I love both your quilts Mary! Beautiful, rich colors! And of course, your quiliting is beyond, beyond incredible!
I like that you gave it a bath in dirty water! And if you ever get the itch to quilt another log cabin, let me know!
Love how you did your quilt, very prim.
I used to tea stain, but now I just use it in the house and it gets stained fast enough, lol.

I love the quilting in the log cabin blocks! Beautiful! How did you give the quilt a bath in tea? I've never done that. How about much water, how many tea bag, etc. It looks great!
Your Mon Ami quilt turned out so nice, it looks great in the basket. I guess I better get with it and finish mine. I love how you did the quilting on the Fish Creek Cabin quilt. That quilt is on my list to do sometime.
Excellent! You always do such a fabulous job! Fish Creek Cabin has gone uptown!
Your Mon Ami is beautiful, Mary. I just love the crinkled look.
Very cute Mon Ami! And I love Fish Creek Cabin! The way you are quilting the blocks is so gorgeous! Have fun!

Your Mon Ami looks great without borders. And I'm in love with that motif you're quilting on the log cabin. That's so cool!
Your Mon Ami is beautiful. I had never heard of bathing a quilt in tea before. I love the look of it.
Mon Ami looks just perfect the way it is. I love it with the tea dye too! Beautiful quilting. It's going to be a stunner when you finish it.
Mon Ami is aweseme and I love the quilting you are doing on the log cabin. Just perfect!
What a lovely quilting pattern. It's going to be a beautiful quilt. :-)
I love the Mon Ami - a lot! I haven't tried tea dying any quilts but I love the look of yours. And the log cabin is stunning - the quilting is perfect. blessings, marlene
Beautiful Mary!
Lovely! I like it without the borders--it is really versatile as a smaller quilt.
Beautiful quilting as always!
Marcie always makes me laugh with her posts--and I love her patterns too.
Beauty eh! Thanks for the link to Patchalot. I love your colour palette.
Mary, your Mon Ami is wonderful :) Really like your change-up with the no-borders...very cool! Your quilting on the log cabin is, of course, most awesome!! :) Thank you for sharing the quilting designer and her blog. I really appreciate that kind of information, as if I can be better by osmosis ... lololol Heading to her blog now :)
I love how you are quilting your log cabin - the feathers are gorgeous. You work magic with your quilting machine!
Love your quilt - AND your quilting
Love the custom quilting, Mary. Fans are my favorite.
You must tell us how you bathe your quilts in tea. I wash and dry mine but haven't invited them to tea yet...cuz I don't know how!
Both quilts are lovely, as we'd expect with your wonderful quilting. The quilting on the log cabin blocks is unique. I like the leaves on one side and the feathers on the other. Just beautiful!
Love it, Mary. The "scrunchy", "used", tea dyed", basket" kind of quilt is what makes it beautiful.
Beautiful! Absolutely LOVE the way Mon Ami has turned out.....I am always in awe of the incredible quilting I see you add to quilt after quilt.....you are MAGIC!!!!
Both quilts are beautiful. Just the right quilting on each!
Your Mon Ami quilt turned out perfect, Mary! I love it without borders. And your log cabin quilt is wonderful, too. Fabulous quilting, as always!
XOXO,
Cyndi
Stunning, Mary! I love the tea dying, too! Your custom quilting on the log cabin is wonderful - love the feathers and leaf combination!
Cheers!
Oh Mary, I just love how your Mon Ami quilt turned out. It looks darling in the basket, very homey.
The quilting on you log cabin is amazing! I love feathers.

Mary, I just stopped in to say hello. Between viral throat infections and the remodeling I'm just not doing too much communication right now. I love your new quilt and it is absolutely delightful with now borders. Love that crinkly look. I'm thinking in about 3 weeks my house will be back together and I can finally get to my sewing room. Keep your fingers crossed. Hugs...
Oh they both are perfect!
The Mon Ami little quilt is adorable, my DH laughs at me when I tea dye a quilt. Love the log cabin quilting.
