{Quilt #5} I was wanting to make a warm, masculine quilt. So I went with basic, bold blocks and soft flannel.

We found that we are going to have our first grandchild at Christmas. I quickly dusted off my 40 year old Kenmore and starting sewing! After making several receiving blankets, bibs and burp cloth I decided to try making a quilt!

A Walk in the Park

I saw this fabric line at MSQC and immediately fell in love. I bought it to make my aunt a jelly roll race quilt since she was having surgery in two weeks. After finishing her quilt I decided that I needed a quilt of my own with this fabric. Purchased two Rollie Pollies and found this pattern online. I love the way it turned out.

Red mini

I English paper pieced this mini as a birthday gift for a friend. She wants to frame it so I didn't bind it.

Pretty posies

This is a "flirty Thirties" pattern. I didn't like the border on the original pattern, so I made up my own using some of the quilt flowers and some vines. This was my second needle turn applique project, and if I was more experienced I would not have chosen this one. But, by the time I finished I was a much more accomplished appliquer!!

Tooie's 90th Birthday

My grandmother, who's nickname is Tooie, turned 90 last September (2015) and I wanted to make a special gift for her. I had just started quilting and wanted to make on for her to keep her warm and feel loved. This was my second quilt I have ever made- I was lucky because the pinwheels were pre-cut by an Accuquilt machine. i quilted by stitching in the ditch so that when it's turned to the back there is a pretty criss-cross pattern. She was so surprised and she uses it all the time. I'm so glad I made it!

Star Struck

I created this wonky stars quilt using a patterned black background and a wide variety of scraps with shimmers, shines, glitters and metallic finishes. Then to really make it dynamic, I quilted loops and stars using glow-in-the-dark thread.

Night Stars

I made this quilt as a free Craftsy BOM in 2015 / 2016. The quilt design is called Night Stars by Kimberly Einmo. It is the first quilt I have created with a black background. I thoroughly loved working with the Anthology batiks in bright colors. I decided to use it for custom longarm quilt practice since the design had the opportunity for two different border patterns and lots of fills. The result is that I am in love with the BACK of the quilt! Cheers! Happy Quilting. Never discount a kit. It can still turn in to an individual beauty!
