To the Moon by Amanda R

'To The Moon'



I was drawing a arrow on paper and my friend said 'my little daughter would make that into a Rocket... I liked that idea so designed an arrow like rocket on the way to the moon!!.. The sky moon and hills are my hand dyed fabrics and the rocket little bits of other fabrics and free motioned stitched.. I made it quite long and narrow to fit a space on my studio wall.. running out of gaps!!

What Goes Up, Must Come Down by Jacomina

The fireworks fabric inspired “what goes up, must come down”. 

And the fabric for the arrows has IMO little arrows too.

Follow Your Arrow by Beverly H

The concept was to depict starting in one direction and coalescing towards one dominate goal, with wobbles on the way.

Trapunto Heart by Maren R

 Just trying out Trapunto. Had this piece of prefelt left and Arrow and heart seemed a good combination to work on. 

And here it is.


Embelished Trapunto and some Grafitti Quilting. The Arrows are a bit on the subtle side but i really like it. Nobody should check the back too closely because i made a huge mistake snipping too far and therefore have the batting peeping out but just enjoy the front.

And anyway it is not a showpiece but a dive into creativity and new techniques.



So grateful for project Quilting.

Follow Your Arrow Bag by Linda G

 I remembered this beautiful arrow fabric I received from a niece awhile ago so made a bag.  I tested another pattern but it makes a very large bag.  We went to the recent archery tournament that another niece competed in and so this bag will go to her.

Follow Your Arrow. Be True to Yourself by Nancy H

 This week’s theme is Follow Your Arrow. I noticed that a heart shape can look like an arrow. 

I thought 


*Follow your Arrow to your heart?

*Follow your heart shaped arrow!?


Follow your arrow..Be true to yourself!  


Inspiration from the Wind Drifter quilt pattern by Robin Pickens


My quilt is 7”x5”.  #ProjectQuilting #pqSeason16


Created by Nancy Horwath.


This was created for an online challenge called Project Quilting. You get a week to complete a whole quilt based on a theme.  Each week is a different theme.  Here is a link to this season 16: https://kimlapacek.com/project-quilting-season-16




I decided to make all 6 PQ challenges 7”x5” this year so I’ll have a set of postcards when I’m done.  For the label, I’m writing on the back with a fabric marker.
