One of the most loved presents that I ever gave. Nate loves his AB (animal blanket) quilt. I have to mend the seams periodically. It had been loved almost to death

I don’t usually like samplers, but this one has grown on me.Good thing, since I will never make another (unless it is a row quilt).

* Actually Nancy Lowry did most of the work on this quilt!!! She brought me her stash of greens, browns and creams, then she taught me to do the paper pieced trees. I made the squares, but she put it together. She is so good about sharing her time and talent!! Thanks Nan!

Jacob Peck and Amanda Call Wedding Quilt

Designed and constructed by Jessica Lowry and Nancy Lowry

This quilt was specially designed for my son Jacob Adam Peck and his bride to be Amanda Marie Call. This is the first of my children to get married and it’s so exciting! My mother made me a pansy wedding quilt and I have made one for Jenna (my daughter) as well, but Amanda wanted to continue the tradtion as well. So this has pansies for Amanda and Jake’s only request was “nothing too girly”.

The initial paper design is shown in blue, because it stands out better that way, but it is done in purples. The four patches are all done in dark purples.

The center medallion set on point is hand embroidered by me and machine appliqued on the pansies by Jake’s Nana (NancyLowry)

Here is the label written with a Pigma permanent pen and then hand appliqued. Adding a label serves to recognize the person and/or the special event and also increases the value of the quilt

Here is the finished product. The pic was taken in our backyard in Mount Airy, Maryland

and here is the best darn dog in the world, Zulu! (who knows better than to lay on this quilt!) Zulu loves you too, Jake! Alas Jacob and Amanda have since divorced.  However Jacob kept the quilt!

My daughter Jenna Peck married Matthew Ryan Wise on May 28th, 2004. This beautiful quilt is done from a family traditional pattern.  My mother made these purple pansies for me and We both made this one for Jenna.  It’s a lovely quilt for my beautiful daughter.

This is The label on the back of the quilt

This is a family tradition that we have started. My mother NancyLowry made me these pansie squares well before I got married and then together we put them together to make my wedding quilt.

My daughter Jenna is alot like me and she loves the color purple and pansies. She also believes in starting and continuing family traditions. So I am already starting to make the pansy squares for her (as yet unborn) daughter.

These are done with as many different purples as possible.

I made this duster coat several years ago and it is better as art than it is worn. At that time it was hard to find African prints. I really like this one.

This quilt was done for the Lowry Family reunion held in Brigham City, Utah July 3rd, 2003. It was raffled off and won by Ashley Montague, Fritzi’s daughter

I have decided to call this quilt  “The Anti-Black Hole Quilt”  shown here at that black hole of bureaucracy, the Utah Department of Motor Vehicles.  My parents and I had to get our Drivers licenses switched from Maryland to Utah.  I hate waiting in lines. I also hate the way people have nothing to do there but stare at other people.  We always plan ahead and the 3 of us had books, but you know what i mean.

I am starting a series of gorgeous quilts in ugly, awful or unlikely locations.  Get daring and send us your pictures for this series.

This quilt is a simple block for first timers.  It’s just a picture frame.  I love rainbows though and I couldn’t resist begging this quilt off my mom.  Hope you like it

Shopping through Nana stash.

Fabric donated by Marian Tworek and Nancy Lowry Designed by Jessica and Nancy Lowry.  Constructed by Jessica Lowry

This is a design that we saw in two quilt magazines last month.  Both of them called it the same thing so I guess it’s safe to call it that here.

Marian sent these in a surprise

We started off with this wonderful collection of fabrics, that my sister Marian of MyCraftTime.com sent me.   These are such fun fabrics.  They are so cheerful they just make me smile.

To these Fabrics we added some from Nana’s stash.

I love aqua and Lime!
