Quick Baby Quilt!

 Miranda and I have been invited to a baby shower this weekend so I needed a quick quilt.  Luckily I had some charm packs of Strawberry Fields by Fig Tree Quilts. 

 

I used 72 squares so the quilt measures 36x40.  I pieced together a binding and back with some leftover larger pieces from Whitney's birthday quilt and the X Marks the spot quilt.

It turned out very cute and will be perfect for a sweet baby girl.

BOM #9

 I truly am behind but I will surely catch up.  This is the block from April and it is called a Jewel Box.

 

Here is a picture of all 9 of the blocks I've made so far.  Only 4 more to go.

On Its Way to Whitney

 Whitney will celebrate a birthday next week and so this quilt is for her.

 

 I used 2 Jelly Rolls of Strawberry Fields from Fig Tree Quilts by Joanna Figueroa and Bella Moda White.

 

 I used this pattern.

 

The colors in this fabric collection are beautiful. 

 

 I tried a new quilting pattern and I think it turned out very well.

 The binding is made up of different prints that I had left over.

 

The back is the beautiful yellow print from the collection.

 



The quilt measures 88 x 96 and has a Hobbs 80/20 batting.

Happy Birthday Whitney and sweet dreams as you lay under this cute quilt.

Prize at the Fair

I was excited when my Swoon quilt won the prize for best machine quilting at the county fair.  This was a surprise because it was the easiest to quilt of the 3 that I entered.  I also entered my Cameo and X Marks the Spot quilts.  They both received blue ribbons.  I now have a gift certificate for $10.00 to spend anywhere in the county, except Maverik.  Pat's Sew and Stuff, here I come.

What a Relief!!

 Finally it's finished. 

As you can see, I quilted a beadboard border which meant a lot of ruler work.

The cameos are quilted in circle feathers and the sashing is a small stipple.

 I like the look of the circle feathers from the back.

 This is one of my favorite cameos,  probably because of the red print.

I took this picture before it was bound, when I first unloaded it.  I used double batting in this quilt to give a higher loft to the border.  The fabric is Joanna Figueroa's "Mill House Inn". 

Strawberry Fields for Me!

I quilted the X Marks the Spot quilt this past week and then finished the binding this morning.  I loved the "Strawberry Fields" fabric collection as soon as I saw it and knew I would make a quilt for myself from it.  Any fabric from Joanna Figueroa is guaranteed to catch my eye.  The back is a green and pink floral print from the collection and the binding is the blue dot.  I quilted the center section of this quilt in an all over flower pattern and the outside border in a meandering ribbon.  This is a queen size quilt and the batting is Hobbs 80/20.

Thoroughly Modern!

 I quilted this for a customer this week.

 She got the pattern out of a magazine and the picture of the quilt showed squiggly line quilting.

That's what she wanted so that is what I did.  This was fun to quilt, just going back and forth. 

I like the bright colors, this is a very summery and modern quilt.  

Completed Swoon

 It's finally finished.  I really love how this quilt turned out.

 I quilted it in a continuous swirl pattern with white cotton thread on front and back.  The back is a sheet from Ikea and the batting is Hobbs 80/20.

I just love looking at it!
