I love the quilts you’ve sewn … and then there are Ellen’s creations. It’s easy for me to see why you wanted them. She was obviously very creative. This was a fun video. 🙂
The commission quilt you made is fantastic; I can only imagine the hours and hours you put into it not only in the actual creation of it but in the thought process and planning too. Great job! Oh my, what an artist Ellen was, so creative and she was a natural talent in her art. Being a cat lover, my favorite is the black cat one but I really think the things she used on the ones you have are so interesting and all the items definitely give such wonderful results. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. It does make me sad though that she didn’t have anyone to leave her things to. I love it that you used her tiny scraps to make a true “memory” quilt. I know you will always treasure them. Happy quilting 😊
What a lovely tribute to one of your quilting friends. I'm so happy that you have a few pieces to remember her by. I also think they will inspire you and direct some of your future projects. I"m glad that you used your cherished fabric on her quilt. I know how hard it is to cut into. I'm hoping to be able to do the same as they coveted fabrics cannot bring joy in a cupboard. And finally Nora, I love, love, love what you did for the commission quilt. It is so thoughtful and heartfelt. I feel like a know him after hearing about all the things you put into his quilt. He is going to love it. Be sure to video his reaction so that you can enjoy watching his reaction to the gift that you have given him - it will be a gift to you. You are very special.
Love these quilts! You did a wonderful job with the memory quilt, and I loved learning about your friend and seeing her work. Remembering her as a guild with the bag of scraps challenge was a lovely idea.
These are extraordinary! What a treasure for your friend and his life events. Can’t believe what you did to document all the numbers of things in his life like the mountains, children, etc. and still did all that hand quilting. The landscape quilts are beautiful! Love the free flowing use of fabrics and stitching and the simplistic added touches that make these so amazing.
I liked your variation on the tshirt quilt. Its like a memory quilt. Well done, hope he treasures it. Ellens quilts are very creative. Thanks for sharing them.👍💟
Ohhh!! That memory quilt is AMAZING and WONDERFUL!! I love everything about it and how it is so much that person!! WOW! And beautiful! The quilt you made with Ellen’s fabrics, I love it!! I am so glad I got the notification and opened this video!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for sharing your story of Ellen! I love everything about this. And your Ellen quilt is stunning!! I’m studying it to see why it works so well, to see if I can learn some lessons for my own work. This is one of my top five of your videos. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow 2 amazing quilts. No wonder we have not seen a lot of videos from you lately. Your London border is perfect for that quilt. I love seeing fabric works of art, always inspiring. if you have more pics of her work, I think a lot of us would like to see more of them. A great video!!!!
Ellen was an artistic genius! Fantastic work. I definitely would have bought a piece of her work. Your quilt of her scraps is really artistic as well and the colors are so good. Your commissioned quilt is AMAZING! I hope you will share his reaction when he sees this beauty.
Your friend did him a big favour - he never would have got such an amazing quilt from anyone else - wow, wow, wow, mind blown!! and I haven't even watched all the video yet - still on the first quilt!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful commissioned quilt, and those of your former fellow guild member. Ellen was very talented from what I can see of her work.
Great video! Ellen had a great imagination. Why isn't some of her pieces in the quilt museum, If I had a pinch of her creativity I would be so happy. Really like the memory quilt you are very talented.
Wonderful quilt, so much fun to look at. He can tell a story about each block, great conversation piece. What a fantastic life he has led. Nora, it was so great to meet you at the Genesee Valley Quilt Show. You're a super star! Way to go Ellen, your quilts will live on. So special!

I love this quilt. The Liberty Tana lawn print is one of my favourites. Such a perfect choice to tie all the colours and prints together.

I agree! For me it's my top favourite video. Just extraordinary, both from Nora and Ellen. What a special episode and what special work.

What treasures! You and the quilts. You are an amazing young lady. Your talent is so refreshing!
All of the quilts in this video are amazing for many reasons! Loved learning about them and the people that made or inspired them.
A great tribute to an artist. Glad you could save and enjoy much of her work.
I would have loved to see a video of making some of the scrappy blocks, love watching your progress, quilt on, happy summer sewing, if not too hot!
Your friend did him a big favour - he never would have got such an amazing quilt from anyone else - wow, wow, wow, mind blown!! and I haven't even watched all the video yet - still on the first quilt!
What a treasure! May she be still be creating in her next journey.🙏
Thank you for sharing your beautiful commissioned quilt, and those of your former fellow guild member. Ellen was very talented from what I can see of her work.
Love your enthusiasm. I’m definitely not an artist like your friend but I love to sew quilts
A lovely way to pay tribute to a fellow quilter, Ellen.
Great video! Ellen had a great imagination. Why isn't some of her pieces in the quilt museum, If I had a pinch of her creativity I would be so happy. Really like the memory quilt you are very talented.
Love this quilt - amazing !!
Thanks so much for posting your work and Ellen’s too. Inspiring
From what I can see, they look like chain stitching. I would never have thought of using nylon stockings in a quilt.
I agree, the waterfall stitches look like very loose crochet chain stitches.
Wonderful quilt, so much fun to look at. He can tell a story about each block, great conversation piece. What a fantastic life he has led. Nora, it was so great to meet you at the Genesee Valley Quilt Show. You're a super star! Way to go Ellen, your quilts will live on. So special!
Fantastic video...absolutely fascinating.Thanks Nora.
Fabulous work on the memory quilt! He's gonna love it! RIP to miss Ellen. Than you for sharing her beautiful quilts with us.

Ellen was truly an artist. The world has become less without her in it!
That’s a beautiful tribute to your friend

I may have stood next to Miss Ellen picking scraps last fall at a quilt show in PA. RIP
Your friend Ellen’s work is fabulous! May she Rest In Peace.
