Roberta Levin

One Block Wonder, machine piecing, machine quilted by Roberta Levin It has been said that quilters “take fabric, cut it up, and sew it back together”. This is completely true of this quilt, which was made with just one piece pf fabric cut up into triangles and sewn back together.

For the Love of Fabric

Roberta Levin

Machine pieced, machine quilted by Roberta Levin (hand-guided long arm) Why do I love to make quilts? It’s about three things – color, fabric & texture. This quilt makes me happy in all three categories, but on this one the floral fabric was my inspiration.

Are We There Yet?

No Circle Here

Hand sewn book. The caterpillar stitch and the coptic stitch were used to construct this book. The covers are made of handmade and printed paper from India. The thread is Irish and the closure is stone.

Running Water

Happy

Roberta Levin

Machine pieced and longarm quilted by me. This quilt hangs on my bedroom wall and was made in the colors of my bed quilt. Originally named “My Bed Quilt’s Quilt” I changed the name when I opened my eyes the first morning after it was hung and “Happy” aprang to mind.

Seek Cover

Elaine E. Levin

Machine quilted I saw a small picture similar to this – I say similar because my quilt grew and grew and grew and became more difficult to create the design because of all the stops and starts in the bargello.

Orbit

Elaine E. Levin

Paper pieced, machine quilted by Pam Schoessow. I was trying to limit my palette and thought finally that it was worthy of detailed quilting.
