QuiltsBy.me

Again I watched The Attic Windows tutorial. I had the panel and wanted to do something different with it, other thatn borders and bindings. My husband loves it. I ended up making three of them for Christmass gifts.

Four Patch Star Quilt. Oversize lap size

This was a scrap buster project. Made from left over 2 1/2",5" and 10" squares. I also learned how to use my machine to quilt the top. Made for my best friend from high school who is currently undergoing many medical issues at this time. Her love for purple and music can also be found in several of the squares. The backing was a beautiful piece given to me from her as an error from her purchase on line. She had no idea what to do with this beautiful fabric panel. I saw it as an opportunity to enhance the back of her quilt to be used on both sides. Machine quilting done on this was done as a stitch in the ditch.

QOV

As a member of Quilts of Valor we receive many donations of fabric and among them are many pieces of homespun plaid. They sit in the boxes and sometimes big pieces will get pulled for backing. I decided to use them to make some quilts. The first one I tried was simple but the photo of the man who received it had a huge smile on his face. It was soft and very manly. So I decided this was very doable

Quilt for a Friend

A good friend of mine's husband is fighting brain cancer...they have had a very difficult year. I choose this fabric for her because she is crazy about Vera Bradley and it kind of had that Vera look...and her living room is grey with gold accents. I told her that this quilt is a hug from me to her.

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!

I Spy

I purchased this "I Spy" layer cake years ago from Missouri Star Quilt Co. and having hard time finding designs to use it till last year, I finally got some ideas; first I use part of the layer cake and made a carrying bag that is big enough to carry my cutting board (18x24) and rulers. The rest of the layer cake I made this "I spy" quilt for my younger grandson.

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.

Merry Christmas for Mark

This Christmas, I made t-shirt quilts for all 3 of my sons in law. The theme(s) were super heroes that they like. My son in law, Mark, likes Captain America. He didn't have any t-shirts, so I went to Kohl's and bought clearance t-shirts for my fabric. I also used some jelly roll strips for the binding.

Merry Christmas for Steve

This past Christmas, I made t-shirt quilts for all 3 of my son-in-laws. My son in law, Steve, likes The Flash, so I made super hero quilts for all 3 guys. It was difficult finding The Flash fabric, so I went to Kohl's and bought t-shirts on clearance and used those for the quilts.
