Here is another Lewis and Clark quilt. I have made five of these now. Four queen size and one twin bed size.
This quilt is 84" x 94" It is a little smaller than a queen size
quilt. I have two quilts from this pattern on my queen bed and they fit
perfect.
A closeup. I almost always roll the backing to the front to bind my quilts.
Closer.
The back is stippled with a large stipple stitch and no other design on the borders. I did this one on my mom's quilting machine and it is the only stitch I know how to do.
This is stitched with blue thread on the back and a golden yellow thread on the front.
I will take this quilt to my mom's house to sell at her fall craft fair.
These are some of my sewing projects. Some are for sale and some are not. Some of the ones for sale can also be found on Facebook and my other sewing blog. Look for Pukka Kreations.

Another Lewis and Clark Quilt - This one is for sale
Here is another Lewis and Clark quilt. It is my favorite quilt to make. This quilt is 84" x 94" It is a little smaller than a queen size quilt. I have two quilts from this pattern on my queen bed and they fit perfect.
I don't use green very often in my quilts, but this one I do like.
A closeup. I almost always roll the backing to the front to bind my quilts. This one has mitered corners.

Here is the back. The thread is pink. My mom quilted this one on her quilting machine.
I cropped this picture from the one above so you can see the three different designs. You have to look close to see them all.

Fishing Lewis & Clark Quilt
This is my third Lewis & Clark quilt. This one is a wide twin size quilt. I took one row off of the side and the bottom of the original pattern.
A little bit closer view and a little different angle. I backed this quilt with a tan full size flat sheet. I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to back the quilt and have enough to fold to the front for a binding. I machine stitched the binding with a straight stitch.
Here is a closer view of one of the corners.
A close-up view of one of the blocks. These squares and rectangles make a 12" finished block.
The alternating 12" finished block is one solid piece of fabric.
My mom machine quilted this quilt for me. The pieced blocks have these three fish swimming in a circle in each of them.
The one piece blocks have these fishing tackle boxes in them.
The borders have these fish in rows along them.

Iris Lewis & Clark Quilt
This is the second Lewis & Clark quilt I made. This is a queen size quilt. This pattern is great for fabric with large prints.
Here is a closer view of one of the corners. The back is a king size yellow sheet. I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to back the quilt and have enough to fold to the front as a binding.

Blue and Pink Floral Lewis and Clark Quilt
This the first Lewis & Clark quilt I made. This is a queen size quilt. I love this pattern. It is very easy. It was a free pattern on the Internet. I searched for it today, but I couldn't find it.
Here is a closer view of one corner. The back is a king size blue sheet. I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to finish this quilt and folded the sheet to the front side and machine stitched it in place with a decorative stitch.
Another close-up so you can see the blocks that make this quilt better.
Another close-up. These squares and rectangles make a 12" finished block.
I put this quilt on my quilting frame. Pinned it together and took it off the frame. I quilted it by sewing diagonal lines through the center of each 12" block. I followed this line from quilt edge to quilt edge.
The alternating 12" finished block is one solid piece.
