Mountain Scene from Central Oregon

It's Vacation Week  over on the ThermOWeb Blog this week and I am sharing my Mountain Scene from Central Oregon with you.

This was the 2014 Row by Row free quilt pattern from The Stitchin' Post in quaint Sisters, Oregon (home to the largest annual outdoor Quilt Show in the world). I have been wanting to make this as a small quilt, rather than a row in a larger quilt, since 2014. So thanks to ThermOWeb, I had a great reason to get this quilt made!

I hung this quilt above the door in our bedroom, so I can see it every day as I awake. The mountains here are Broken Top. the 3 Sisters, affectionately named: Faith (North Sister), Hope (Middle Sister) and Charity (South Sister), and Mt. Washington.

I love my turquoise Oliso Iron and matching ironing board cover! I love that Oliso makes irons in such pretty colors!

Home Sweet Home Row Quilt

This is the 2016 Row by Row Experience Block that was from the Stitchin' Post in Sisters, Oregon. It was designed by June Jaeger (Jean Wells' sister). Jean is the owner of the Stitchin' Post. You can still purchase the pattern here.

 I started it over a year ago and then it sat waiting for me to quilt it. I got most of it quilted, except for the sky, so it sat a few more months. I am so glad I got this one finished! I just love it. It reminds me of my visits to Sisters and Bend, Oregon to visit my friend there and attend the Sisters annual Outdoor Quilt Show.

I used batik, hand dyed and commercial fabric in this quilt. It was a bit time consuming to trace the pattern shapes to fusible web, cut them out, fuse them down and quilt around everything. I did not do my usual blanket stitch around the shapes, instead I quilted around some shapes close to the edge and do other quilting to hold it all in place. I was a bit nervous about doing this, because I have had issues with thread breakage while quilting recently and if you rip out on a fused down piece the holes will show. I did have a few places this happened.

This is hanging in our bedroom and Mr. P really loves it too!

I love this Sisters, Oregon scene.

The snow is white fabric with silver glitter in it, so perfect for snow. The mountain is batik fabric.

Batik fabrics were used for the cabin,

I didn't have the right green for the trees in batik, so the trees are a commercial fabric.

I used a hand dyed brown (I dyed myself) for the binding.

I just couldn't see this going into a quilt with other rows, because this beauty needed to stand on it's own!
