Quilts
This week I wanted to feature another one of the quilts in my collection. This lap quilt was a wedding gift from my cousin Susan. It’s super soft and warm – along with being beautifully made. (Susan, you can feel free to make me a quilt any time.) And it matches the decore in my…
Even though my first “official” quilt was the one that I made for my sister’s wedding gift, I did have another project before then. I made 9 quilt photo quilt blocks a wall hanging. The blocks each contained family photos of my grama and her family. After I finished the blocks, my mom and uncle…
While most of the quilts I have made in my time as a “quilter” have been basic designs using strips of fabric and half square triangles – there are a few quilt designers that I love. 3. Cluck, Cluck, Sew! Not only is Cluck, Cluck, Sew! one of my favorite quilt blogs, but her quilt…
Thanks to my attempt to avoid finishing the (not) Purdue quilt top last week, I got myself started on another – much smaller – project, using my fabrics with gold metallic ink. For this project, I’m planning to use several fat quarters of fabric, along with a couple larger pieces of fabric I had in…
I’m super excited that I’ve got the quilt top for my little sister Samantha done! As you may recall, she wanted a “Purdue quilt, that wasn’t really a Purdue quilt.” My solution? Use Purdue colors in a fun scrappy pattern. I ended up using the Squares & Strips quilt top tutorial from Cluck, Cluck, Sew!…
Have you ever had one of those days when you know there’s a project that you should be working on, but you just can’t get into it? I’m there right now with one of my projects – that quilt for my little sister. It’s kind of sad really. I have all the blocks cut and…
As you know from my previous post, I’m working on a quilt for my sister Samantha. I’m super excited about how the quilt is coming along, and I’m even starting to like the colors. Not that I don’t like black and gold – I am a Purdue Alum myself. Boiler Up! I just wasn’t sure…
I finally got the Sassy Charm Quilt completed! It’s possibly a miracle with everything that has been going on lately. I did get it quilted over a week ago, but I just didn’t have the time to bind it. I’ll blame my little sister and her wedding for that. This quilt’s finished size is about…
Ever since I told my youngest sister, Samantha, that I was making Kayla a quilt for her wedding, Samantha has wanted me to make her one. And now that I’ve used up a good portion of my scrap fabric and smaller stash pieces with the crazy quilt, the baby quilt for Lukas, the School Days…
As you may have noticed, I’ve done quite a bit of quilting recently… and by quilting, I mean piecing, because I’m not awesome enough to do my own quilting just yet. But, I haven’t been coming up with all the ideas myself. As a matter of fact, I spend a ton of time surfing the internet looking…
