And that would be Debbie, of Prairie Queen's Quilt Shop in San Jose, CA. Debbie does my quilting for me, and she just finished three quilts, each one prettier than the next!
Madeline, in my hands already! And look at the beautiful feather quilting design. This is my adaptation of a Miss Rosie Schnibbles pattern called Madeline. Fabric is Rouenneries by French General for Moda.
Prairie Paisley, just in time for the 4th of July. Prairie Paisley is the fabric collection, designed by Minick and Simpson for Moda. Pattern came from a Better Homes and Gardens American Patchwork and Quilting Summer 2008 magazine.
And Moor Is Moor, made with Wuthering Heights fabric by 3 Sisters for Moda. Pattern is Summer Winds, a Miss Rosie's Quilt Company offering. A prettier color combination could not be found.
And now I am the one who is going to be busy, sewing the bindings on all these quilts....
Beautiful, Nicole! Would love to pick a favorite but simply can't. :-)

Oh my gosh, they are all just lovely! I don't know how you'll decide which to have on the bed! ;-) Have fun!

Beautiful job!

Stunning. We have the same taste in patterns and fabrics. Your quilts are simply delicious!

Spec-tac-u-lar!!!!!!! Each one is prettier than the other!!
Posted by: Jan | June 23, 2010 at 09:58 AM
Yes. They are all gorgeous! These were wonderful as tops but the quilting just finishes them off beautifully. I recently took a class with Harriet Hargrave and was chatting with her on how we leave too many tops with out a good finish and this just proves the point.

You are so right...each one is prettier than the next! Have fun binding...that is one of my favorite parts of quilting.
Posted by: Julie | June 23, 2010 at 10:25 AM
They're all lovely! Wow--I gotta get busy making more quilts!
Posted by: Lisa | June 23, 2010 at 10:30 AM
All three of these are just beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!

How can I choose a favorite? They are each absolutely gorgeous! I always love to see the finished produce - when the quilting is complete. Thanks for showing them on your bed. It makes it easy to visualize one on mine! I'd better get busy - need to clean the sewing room first, though.

Hey Nicole - I'm just catching up on your blog (hangs head shamelessly that I missed a few days) love love love the quilts. Here's a quick newbie question for you...how much background fabric do you buy when you stock up? Thanks!

The quilts are lovely, Nicole. It looks like your quilter used a pantograph on Madeleine - any chance of finding out the name of that particular pattern?
Posted by: Anne | June 23, 2010 at 03:39 PM
Wow, Nicole, all three are beautiful! How do you accomplish so much and with perfect pattern and fabric choices. You are amazing!!!
Posted by: Penny | June 23, 2010 at 04:09 PM
Thanks for showing us the quilts quilted. They are beautiful. You will be busy putting the bindings on, and just when it got hot, too.
Posted by: Cathy McMann | June 23, 2010 at 04:14 PM
Oh my goodness - all three of those are stunning!
Posted by: Debbie | June 23, 2010 at 04:19 PM
Gorgeous quilts and those feathers are wonderful! Enjoy the binding!
Posted by: Jennifer | June 23, 2010 at 05:24 PM

I am stunned by just how beautiful each of the quilts is, and by how much it must have cost to have three quilted at once! Our addictions can be expensive. Love your work as always.

G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!!
Posted by: Suzy | June 23, 2010 at 05:55 PM
Those are beautiful! I agree about the color combination in the Moor is Moor. Really lovely!
Posted by: Loris Mills | June 23, 2010 at 06:33 PM
They are all gorgeous Nicole, but if you have too many to bind, you can send Madeline my way!
Posted by: Mary on Lake Pulaski | June 23, 2010 at 06:55 PM
Beautiful. The only okay thing about sewing on bindings in the middle of summer heat is sitting underneath a ceiling fan--here's hoping you've got one to sit under!
Posted by: Elizabeth | June 23, 2010 at 08:46 PM
I remember how you struggled finishing up your Prairie Paisley project, how wonderful to have it back home just in time for the 4th of July!
Summer Winds, a great pattern for any family of fabric, I'll need to keep that on my radar since I'm sure Wuthering Heights fabric is impossible to find.
Madeline looks wonderful wearing feathers!
Love them all. I've never gotten more than one quilt back from the quilter at a time, what a jackpot!
