QuiltsBy.me

With two babies due in my friendship circle, I decided to use a single jelly roll, but create two different baby quilts. I sewed the entire jelly roll into a JRR top, and then cut it into strips. Some I separated again, and used as blocks in a QAYG quilt (quilting on my embroidery machine). The other was left as strips, sashed, and quilted with simple wavy lines. The left overs will be made into doll quilts for a local children's charity.

Baby Quilt

Baby quilt for one of my tech's. It's her second baby but I wasn't quilting when she had the first one. The Fabric is "The Very Hungry Caterpillar". The pattern is Treasure Box from the Missouri Star Block Magazine Fall Vol 5 Issue 5. The quilting was done by Missouri Star....in butterflies. I also included the book in the bag.

River Log Cabin with Aboriginal Prints

We lived in Australia for 2 and a half years and I fell in love with Aboriginal art. After a recent visit back to see friends, I decided to put together the Aboriginal fabrics (M&S Textiles) that I had been collecting. I liked the circular nature of the River Log Cabin because circles are used extensively in Aboriginal art. They usually represent campsites in Dreamtime stories, but are also used as the base elements of many paintings. Pathways to water holes or campsites are essential as well and the River Log Cabin had both! I did modify the MSQC pattern by adding blocks to create a 10x10 quilt with 2 borders to get to a queen size. I selected another print for the backing and a "Double Bubble" circular pattern to quilt it. On a side note, one of the first fabrics I collected was a print by Anna Pitjara. I thought the name sounded familiar. When I returned home, I checked a painting we have from Australia and sure enough, it was by Anna Pitjara as well.

First Double Wedding Ring Quilt II

I really got attached to this quilt and will definitely make another. It will travel over land and sea to another country far away. Finally, the quilt will be delivered in person to a newly married couple by my baby brother. I can’t wait to see a photo of the couple and the quilt.

Nephew Baby Quilt

A first baby for one of my nephews. I had previously made them a wedding quilt and had a few left over blocks from that. Those plus stuff from my stash made a baby quilt with fleece backing.

Baby Quilt

First baby for a young couple that my husband is mentoring. Just a charm pack and fleece backing. Used Counting Sheep by Makower UK. Thought the yellow and gray very sweet.

Baby Quilt

Fast baby quilt, tied, not quilted, with cotton top and fleece backing -- no batting. I tie my quilts so that the ties don't show on the top. I made this 7 years ago. More contrast for the brown fabrics would have shown off the design better, but finished is better than perfect!

Jelly Roll Race

Got my niece into sewing and quilting. I surprised her with a jelly roll race for something new to do on her last visit. This is my finished project. When she comes for her next visit we will tie her quilt and finish it. She is loving the creation process. I love having her to sew with.

First Double Wedding Ring Quilt I

My brother asked me to make a quilt for friends of his who live out of the country. These friends recently got married and wanted to give my brother a gift. The gift was a beautiful Persian Rug to take home with him. He thought of a wedding gift to give them when he returned. He requested flowers intertwined throughout wedding rings. I now need to free motion quilt feathers and fillers.

Scrap Pillow Cover

I am trying desperately to use up my scraps. They appear to be multiplying. Used the wacky web ruler template from Missouri Star. Another fun project completed.

Big Bag

Watched the jelly roll tutorial by Jenny where she gets three big bags from one jelly roll. Loved it and had to try it. I put my own touch on it. It is truly a Big Bag!

Peggy's 3 Sets of Pillowcases

Inbetween quilt projects, I like to make sets of pillow cases to give as grad student graduation gifts or shower gifts to brides. I especially like using a solid Cotton Lawn for the main body, and beautiful florals for the cuffs. The cotton lawn fabric is so smooth and fine, and lovely to sleep on. I also like adding a flange trim for a touch of elegance. I use Jenny Doan's flange binding tutorial as a guideline for the flange trim.
