Crashing Pines Quilts

Crashing Pines Quilts 40 years experience making hundreds of quilts. See my album of t-shirt quilts for a few examples.

Quilts- applique, pieced, tshirts of any size; beaded suncatchers, beaded horse shoe suncatchers and twined rugs from placemat size up to 3 x 5 feet made of fleece fabric Many were given away to people who had done me a kindness, now I make a lot of t-shirt quilts as a way to support my aged Quarter Horse. I do customized settings, do not simply cut each shirt same size regardless of the pattern.

I use either leftover shirt pieces to fill in or flannel or other appropriate fabric. I also make pieced and appliqued quilts, some a mixture of both! Let me know what you're looking for, I'll let you know if I can make it!

I'm liking this one so far even though mine looks nothing like the pattern cover!

This quilt top was started 2 weeks ago, I'm not crazy about it so will put a border on it and eventually quilt it.

If you are in Moundsville, WV, near the Grave Creek Mound Archaeological Complex, stop by and check out the photography exhibit by the skilled artists of the Ohio Valley Photography Club. The exhibit is up through May. (My photograph on metal: Revelation.)

WIP started this week. The pattern sample used all solids on a dark navy background. It called for over 7 yards just for background! I used bleached muslin and mostly batik instead of solids.I have the next 8 blocks cut out, might change out the borders bc I want mine to be about 92 square

My post was getting long so here's part two:
First is me pinning the first of two silk tie quilts made for my horse friend Dee Dee Jones Wear and the second is her relative with the finished quilt
The next three are the other $46 tops I ordered.

Been a minute, I have 4 quilts in various degrees of 'finishness', the sweatshop is chaos with 174 chunks of fabric, quilt tops, patterns and my notes stacked high enough that one German Shepherd tail creates a vortex of even more chaos. All these quilts are for others who await them (im)patiently and I'd love to have them all handed off as well!
There are 2 aprons cut out for Tammy Holmes in there somewhere; several miles of deco-weight fabric for porch cushions have disappeared entirely.
I recently came across an etsy store selling "queen size quilt tops" for $46. A quilt top is just that, a top without the backing, batting or quilting finished. Out of nosy curiosity I ordered one which arrived a few days later, it's the first one pictured below along with a few more tops I ordered. The fabrics are odd, truly seem to be scraps from a clothing factory but the piecing is meticulous and the chosen patterns are very difficult. I wonder about the circumstances of the people making them for so little money.
