One done and another started...

I finally finished this Circle Quilt. It is all wrapped in a HUGE gift bag and ready to be handed off at Thanksgiving. It feels so good to be done. But now I am in love with it and almost just want to buy them a book or two and keep the quilt for myself.


And now:

Craft Hope Quilt Finished!

I finished the quilt just in time to mail it off to get it to them by the deadline. *hooray*

I especially love these sprockets.

This is a close-up of the appliqued material.

Ready to go to a homeless boy from our house with love.

What I did last night...

I did this quilt top for the quilt top that I'm doing for Craft Hope's current project.

My friend Emilie gave me this fun boy material from Cosmo Cricket. I'm loving it... the robots, sprockets, and the jetson's looking space car.

The yellow is a sheet that I picked up at a thrift store and then I just sewed right on top the different square pieces of material.

Now I have to finish it up quickly and mail it to them by the 15th!

Circle Quilt, part 1



I am making this quilt for my in-laws for Christmas. I am hoping to get it done in time to give it to them on Thanksgiving since we will be there then, but not Christmas. What do you think?

Swirling Waters Quilt Top Finished!!!

Hooray! Now all I have to do is buy the batting for it and then I can finish it up. I already have a blue sheet for the backing. Oh, and I need to make some binding for it, but not too big of a deal. I am just thrilled to have so much of the quilt done now.

And then it will go on Todd's black twin size bed. It will look so good. I can't wait to see it on there with his black bedroom set and all of the stuff in his bedroom (globe, jolly roger on the wall, etc.).

halfway there


I just need to make 7 more snail trail blocks and 1 white block and then I can piece them together! Hooray for being so close to being done.

Todd's quilt

I took this picture last night as I was trying to lay the quilt out to see how many certain blocks I am going to need to make.

I told Todd that the next quilt that I made would be for him and so finally I am doing it. He will be 4 in September and I have had his quilt planned out since he was around 1. I need to hurry up and get it done, too. I have other quilts to do that I want to get done for Christmas, one for my in-laws for Christmas and another for a friend's baby girl due on Christmas or Christmas day.
So, off I go to quilt, quilt, quilt!
