Red & white quilt finish

 


These blocks were made during the red month for the rainbow scrap challenge.  I loved the red and white not mixed with other colors.  Leftover parts became a border.


Free motion quilted by my friend Doreen Hammond.


Happened to have this red & white print in my stash for the backing.


Added some more leftover parts to make the backing wide enough.  Love how it turned out!

RSC purple baby quilt finish

 


I kind of fizzled out on some of my RSC blocks.  I didn't like the colors all mixed together.  So, I decided to whip up another baby quilt to have on hand.


I had an abundance of this fabric for the backing.  I have already used it on at least 2 other throw quilt backings.  Happy to be using it up.


My friend Doreen Hammond free motion quilted it.  Turned out super cute with the girly flowers!

Baby quilt-bead blocks

 


I ended up with leftover blocks from the quilt I made for my boss.  The blocks were made during the rainbow scrap challenge.  Since I'm changing up the blocks I'm making for this year, I decided to put those into a baby quilt to have on hand for the next time I need one.


I like this light green print for the back.

RSC green baby quilt finish

 


I started making these blocks last year for the rainbow scrap challenge.  I decided I didn't like the colors all mixed together.  So a couple of the colors ended up in baby quilts.  This is the first one.

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!

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.  



Freemotion quilting by Doreen Hammond.


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.
