Monthly Archives: March 2017

Today is the last day of the March Madness quilting off, and this last week has been quite mad with 1 machine down (now fixed) and a flood of quilts to match the cyclone (Debbie).  Thank you everyone, despite one machine down, Ergon kept the power on and we met our service standard of completing quilts in 24-48 hours.  Here are some of this week’s arrivals – 6 from Bronwen of Highfields (her 3rd visit – lost count of how may quilts) and two from Delma.

Our Freepost number is now cancelled as previously advised, but we still provide free return post for quilts Australia-wide.  We encourage customers to use the order form on the home page at www.koolkatquilting.com. and advise that the old site of www.koolkatquilting.com.au is no longer being maintained and will soon be taken down.  Similarly please note the current email address of koolkatquilting@bigpond.com, the old address of koolkatquilting@optusnet.au is discontinued.

We are busy this week as the last of the March Madness quilts arrive.  Vanessa from Cabarlah sent two quilts, the black and white quilt is being quilted with the budget circle meander pattern.  The next  quilt with the nautical theme comes from Marlene of Quilpie and this is being quilted with the ebb and flow e2e pattern.  Debby from Ingham sent two quilts, the pink quilt is being quilted with the budget I love it trailing hearts e2e and the brown quilt with the leaf meander e2e.  Vanessa’s second quilt is being quilted with the leaf meander e2e, while the large grey quilt from Kerry at Coburg in Victoria is being quilted with the paisley feather e2e pattern.

The first quilt is from Norma at Charleville and is being quilted with the daisy chain e2e machine quilting pattern.  The child’s quilt comes from Narelle at Tara and is being quilted with the plush e2e pattern.  The blue and white quilt comes from Sandra at Cook’s Hill, NSW and is being quilted with the trailing vine e2e.

These two quilts are from Val of Toowoomba and both are being quilted with the budget circle meander pattern as part of the March Madness discount machine quilting offer.

The first quilt comes from Margaret of Esk and is being quilted with the daisy chain e2e pattern.  The next 2 quilts are from Bev at Kingsthorpe – middle quilt is being quilted with the dragonflies e2e and the bottom quilt with the petal power e2e pattern.

It has been amazing to watch our “artist-in-residence”, the talented Nicola Sophie in action in the KoolKat Studio this week.  Visiting quilters have been fascinated!

The first pair of quilts are upholstery covers, the charcoal colour cover is being quilted with the ebb and flow e2e and the white with happy times e2e.  these were brought to us by Raelea of Camp Hill.  The twin set of bed size quilts delivered by Beth from Roma are being quilted with the plush e2e pattern, while the drunkard’s path quilt from Janell at Quilpie sis being quilted with the sticky buns e2e pattern.

We are half way through the March and quilters are making big savings on machine quilting. Get in now for the KoolKat Quilting ½ price machine quilting offer. Send us two quilts in one parcel, and the 2^nd (smaller) quilt will be quilted at half the normal machine quilting price. Offer includes budget as well as standard e2e patterns, but excludes set-up costs, other offers such as vouchers and any materials such as backing. No need to book, but we must receive your quilts before Friday week.

Quilts continue to arrive as part of the March Madness machine quilting offer.  The first 2 quilts are from Bronwen of Highfields – the grey quilt is being quilted with the happy times e2e and the floral quilt with the ebb and flow e2e.  The two quilts featured below are from Sandy at Roma, and both are being quilted with the jasmine e2e pattern.

Sue Ann from Michigan, USA sent these photos of the her Art Nouveau Garden quilt made using the pattern designed by Kathy Adams of KoolKat Quilting.  The pattern is based on a design by Alphonse Mucha. We wish her every success in showing this magnificent quilt.
