All of a sudden I'm obsessed with aqua and green colorway. In the past month I have sent out four baby quilts and my "collection/selection" was getting low, so I made this to replenish my stash. Everyone gets a baby quilt--whether it is your first or your fourth. LOL Aqua seems a good choice to keep it gender neutral. I experimented with variegated threads in shades of blues. The lesson learned is that it requires expertise fmq which I have not achieved. It is still a fun quilt.

Fresh Diamonds Quilt--Biscuits and Gravy

One of my "go to" patterns when I have two charm packs. This finishes up at 50 x 54 inches. It's a good size for a throw or a large baby quilt. It's easy and fun. Free tutorial http://www.sameliasmum.com/2012/10/fresh-diamonds-easy-quilt-tutorial.html

Scrappy Rail Fence "Aqua"

This is the second time I've made this pattern. This time I chose all blues/aquas. This is going to be perfect for a baby due in August whose mommy and daddy are not revealing gender. It is 54" x 54"--large enough for tummy time, tent-making and story time snuggles.

Ribbon Dance Quilt

Had a few charm packs and was delighted to realize that some of the colors matched my new valences in my family room. This ribbon dance quilt is smaller but I am happy with how it turned out.

Butterfly Quilt

This was just completed for a friend who was diagnosed with cancer 30 years ago. I thought the butterflies were life affirming and while making this I gave prayers of thanksgiving for my friend's survival despite having had a recurrence of the cancer 7 years beyond initial diagnosis.

More confetti

This is a fun checkerboard. I found a tutorial on redpepperquilt years ago and have made about four of these. If you just need to sit down and sew in a rather mindless way, this is my go-to. It's quilted with straight-line quilting and makes a perfect baby quilt or gift for someone who is ill.

2 patch - 4 patch Scrappy Rail Fence

I saw this pattern on quiltsbyme.com (right here) by LINDAV. I knew I had enough scraps to go to town. I do like the way the quilting turned out. This will go to a soon to be born baby boy for some tummy time.

Bento Box Baby Quilt

I found a Bento Box quilt block pattern on-line. I think my rainbow/multi-colored scraps may take away from the actual box pattern. But this little quilt is off to a new baby for some tummy time.

Cabin Fever -- Five Fat Quarters

This is called Cabin Fever by Gigi's Thimble and Jedi Craft Girl. It is a fab five fat quarters pattern. I just was using up fabric leftover from other projects. Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4kSq0wTCfldbjNyTlRWSlVNZmc/view I pieced the back which got a bit crazy but again, trying to be frugal and use up stash. I got some practice fmq --did the border in scallops and the center in swirls.

Honey Bun String Quilt

I was gifted a print honey bun a while back and I bought a second one not thinking I could do much with just one honey bun. So glad I grabbed another one. I made this string quilt with nary a few inches of print to spare. Final measurements 48" x 60".
