QuiltsBy.me

I had left over blocks from several lap quilts so I decided to create a table runner. The borders highlight my girlfriends love for her household pets and the backing is in blue and white with french titles for the flowers. She also loves all things "French" and Paris is her favorite city. It is also my first attempt at machine quilting with a new machine I have since my previous machine an Elna was on its last legs and there was no way to drop the feed dogs. It was also a creative use of scraps that I had from left over 10", 2 1/2" and 5" squares.

Patchwork Garden

My sister called me and asked me to create a baby quilt for one of her friends. The only catch was I only had one week... Ha! I took on the challenge. I use the 'Double Slice' pattern thinking it be quick and fun. And it was! I use FQs from my stash, cut them in to 10" squares and followed the pattern. After washing it finished at 43 inches square. My sister loves the bright colors and is sure the new mom-to-be will also. It's only the third quilt I have FMQ and I am feeling more confident. It isn't perfect but it's done!! And I'm happy with how it turned out.

Duckling a'orange

Baby sized Quilt as a wedding gift to the eldest son of a friend. I had some Panel and coordinating sample fabric pieced, combined with little darling fabric and muslin. I opted for a vey thin cotton batting, as I wanted to have this very easily washable. I hope it will be kept and used lovingly in the young family (done in 2014)

An OCD Project using the The Crazy Quilt Template

It is my friend, MaryAnne's Birthday and I wanted to make her a gift. I decided to make her a table runner and 6 placemats. This is my first attempt at using the The Crazy Quilt Template. The OCD in this project is eliminating the craziness and making every row around the center the same color. I like the end results. I didn't realize it but this project still looks a little crazy, too.

Under the Sea

TBT: This Bulls Eye scrap quilt is from the book Quilts From Aunt Amy, published in 1999. It was very popular at the time for civil war and reproduction fabrics. I made this as a wedding gift for a very modern, funky couple. It's all dark colors of the deep sea from green to purple on the cool side of the color wheel with some oranges for contrast (think fish). The raw edged circles look so cute after its washed. They held up, too, after 12 years of heavy use.

One In The Pocket

My son loves to play a game of pool. When he was house hunting, the only requirement that he had was that the house needed a place for a pool table...preferably not in the dining room. The quilt I made for him has the numbered balls and cue sticks as the focus print. Jenny Doan's Missouri Quilt tutorial called Alter Ego -- a versatile combination of the hour glass and the scrappy four patch, turned out to be a good match. I used 5 inch squares for the four patch block and 10 inch squares for the hour glass block. For the border, I stitched a 3 inch patchwork. The backing fabric is a fleece in a similar focus fabric. After dividing the top into quadrants, I straight line quilted in each area. It was a fun project and came together a lot faster than I imagined....just in time for a break in a lively game of pool.

Something New for Kallie

I was experimenting with an arrangement of Asian themed fabric in an experimental design. My granddaughter in Oregon "volunteered" to give it a place to live and belong. So it is happily living in her house!

Sewing Machine Pad

This went together so fast!! It was easy and lots of fun. I added a pincushion in the bottom left corner which gave me space for pockets where I can keep my seam rippers and such. I really enjoyed making something for myself for once.

Merry Christmas for Brian

This Christmas, I made t-shirt quilts for my sons in law. My son in law, Brian, loves Superman, so I decided to make him a Superman lap quilt. His wife smuggled out some of his older and much loved t-shirts, and I filled in the gap with some clearance t-shirts from Kohl's.

I wanted to create a quilt for my thirteen year old nephew. After many attempts to come up with something "cool" for a 13 year old; I came up with "Ninja Stars" made from pinwheel and friendship star blocks. Added a little dragon fabric on the back; and here it is - a great creation!
