2 Baby Quilts Finished

Janie my customer did a fantastic job making her very first Quilts.


I just finished quilting and attaching the binding to 2 of these cute little baby quilts. No, mother isn't expecting twins but grandma is expecting her first grandchild soon. Beings grandma isn't a quilter, she decided while she was making 1 she better make 2. Just in case for the future grandbaby. Grandma isn't sure she is really going to get into making quilts... but she's beginning to make plans for a next quilt so... there's still hope she'll become a quiltaholic like the rest of us.

She wanted the same allover quilting pattern done on both quilts, she choose this one called "Drip", A Perfect choice for the cute Ducks, plus it looks super on the minkie backing too.

 Also since my last post I've made 3 more Quilts for myself. A Yellow Brick Road and two 1600 quilts They were simple and fast using Hoffmans bali pops. I know that some quilters don't like The 1600 quilt pattern but for my purposes, wanting to make quick quilts so that I have practice quilts to practice my LA quilting skills on it's perfect. Plus when I'm all finished it didn't brake the bank and they make into a great size for charity...win win for all.

Can't believe It's almost September, I've been waiting all year for September. Here in the PNW we don't have the really big Quilt Shows like the other parts of the country do. This year we finally have 2, one in September the other in October...so exciting...I can't wait.
Thanks for stopping by.
