Valentine Mini Quilt - Finished!
This mini quilt was kitted up at my local quilt shop and I just love it! Lots of machine applique, my first attempts at embroidery, flowers made from Dresden plates, and the first bunting I have made. It is kind of cutesy but I love it.
Strawberry Fields Quilt - Finished!
Finally! This quilt top was started around the Super Bowl in 2012 and finished around the Super Bowl in 2013. Eek. I am glad to have this cheery quilt finished - come on Spring! The fabric is Strawberry Fields by Fig Tree for Moda and the pattern is Shortcake by Cluck Cluck Sew. I will definitely re-make this pattern again.
Lucy's Beach Bag - Finished!
This project is from the monthly Label Crew offered by Sweetwater. I love their fabrics and patterns. This monthly project was some time in the Summer and for whatever reason I waited until February to make it! The fabric is from their Lucy's Crabshack line for Moda in canvas and the pattern is called Lucy's Beach Bag. The bag is far from perfect but it will do for me. I am trying to get better at making bags - they are still a mystery to me!
Still in Process - On a Whim Quilt Top
I finally put the borders on this one! So, now the top is complete. Yay! Finally! I don't know why I lost steam on this one because I really do like the pattern and fabric. Just too many distractions I think. This quilt is big and I am seriously considering sending it to a long arm quilter. I am still undecided though and obviously not in a hurry!
We won't discuss the many many many other WIP's I referenced here......
New Project - Houndtooth Baby Quilt
This one will be a gift for one of the employees in my husband's office. She wanted the quilt to reflect the colors of her alma mater so.....purple and gray it is. Eek. So, I using Moda Bella Solids in Purple and Gray to make this one. I am enjoying making this pattern so far and trying not to rush through it.
Whew! If you are still with me - thanks! It has been a busy few weeks here. I do love to unwind at night in front of my machine and create!
Linking up to WIP Wednesday! Next week....QuiltCon!!!
What an adorable Valentine's mini. :) Love that eggplant for the houndstooth. I made one last month and had a lot of fun with it. Your On a Whim is delectable!
