RSC churn dash finish (turq)


 Churn dash block was one of my choices for the rainbow scrap challenge a couple years ago.  Finally got a couple quilts made out of them and I still have blocks leftover.  Turquoise and teal are my favorites!


Quilted by my friend Doreen Hammond.

Izzy's college quilt finished


 This was a free pattern from moda.  The quilt was planned for my friend's daughter who just went off to college.  She requested pale yellow, white and navy.  I think it turned out perfect for her.

Also, managed to squeak in some texty prints which make me happy working on it.

Aussie quilt finish

 My husband and I went to the upper peninsula for our 30th anniversary.   Also happened to be the all michigan shop hop time.  I took him to breweries and I went to quilt shops.  Found lots of Australian fabrics that I liked.  This is the result...



I fussy cut the boomerangs for the center and side borders.


I also fussy cut the binding.


The leftover pieces went on the back which I think turned out kind of cool too!  So happy with this quilt.

Peacock quilt finish


 The striking colors are what got me with this quilt.  I love the turquoise in it!  I believe it was a swirly girls pattern.

Giant flying geese quilt finished


 Mostly Tim Holtz fabrics were used for this quilt.  It's a little more modern look than I usually do.  I just love some of his texty prints and needed to use them in a way to enjoy the fabric.



 I was also able to use another texty print for the backing.  Love it!


My girlfriend Doreen Hammond freemotion quilted it for me.

RSC Churn dash finish


 I enjoyed following along with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  This is one of the quilts I was able to make with the blocks I finished.

The backing was a wide back that was waiting for just the right quilt!

Michigan quilt finish

 


This is a gift for my friend's son.  I love that I used up a lot of blue and yellow scraps.

Backing and border were licensed fabrics.

It was a quick and easy finish.
