I've made several baby quilts for friends and my own kids. My 82 year old mother loves the color purple and her name is Violette. I used a dark gray plush lap size blanket from Kohl's for the back. She absolutely loves the colors and is super soft and warm! I zig-zagged (in purple of course) around all the seams.

Bear Paws Camping Set - Place Mats

I have a trailer that I live in five months of the year. Last year I decided to switch the decor. MSQC had Benartex - Bear Paws jelly roll as Deal of Day and loved it and bought a roll. I ended up also getting, some fabric, and the charm pack to match. I never did anything with items and a few months past and the jelly roll was Deal of Day again!!! "Forgetting" I already had one I ordered another!!! Well the time has come when we are heading back to camp and I had time to create some things for the trailer. I just completed four (4) place mats, one mug rug, one table topper and eight (8) coasters. The place mats were cut from the Bear Paw jelly roll and I used Bosal double sided fusible foam stabilizer because I wanted something more sturdy as a place mat.

Bear Paws Mini Coasters

I made eight coasters for the trailer as well. I plan on making The Cascade Quilt by Jenny at MSQC. I had the jelly roll and cut out the Bear Paw strips. I just purchased the solid material from MSQC and waiting for its arrival. So in the meantime I cut what pieces I had leftover from the jelly roll and cut into 2 1/2" squares. I used a 5" square for the back and cut a piece of felt for the batting in between. It was a great way to use up the little stash.

Bear Paws Table Topper

To complete the set for trailer I made this table topper from the remaining jelly roll strips. I sewed four strips together and cut on a 60 degree triangle. The tutorial called for binding, etc, but I decided to do in similar way as MSQC Mug Rug tutorial. I ironed on fusible fleece, put a backing fabric and sewed it together. I love it and not fighting with the binding!

Mom's Christmas Gift

in 2015 my father had passed away. After we put Dad to rest, I helped Mom to clean out all of his things. While going through his closet, I saw these very hideous aloha shirts that he would wear. I thought maybe I could do a quilt project with them, so I took them and began an applique quilt using Dad's aloha shirts. I finished quilt late in 2015, right before Christmas and gave the quilt to Mom as her Christmas gift. You can imagine how much she cried.

Baby Grand

Saw this idea on Pinterest, to make a baby grand piano out of log cabin blocks. I realized that the blocks were the curved log cabin blocks in Jenny's tutorial. I work with theatre groups who do musicals. We had one very talented pianist that did the music for 3 plays. I wanted to make this for her! Love how it turned out! In making the keys, I did one of the three using raw edge appliqué. I was afraid this wouldn't hold up to washing, so I pieced the other two. It was more work, not as straight, but I think it will hold up better.

Table Runner/Bed runner

I have some "hugs & kisses" blocks left over from other project, so I put them together with sashings, corner stones and border and completed this quilt.

Aberdeen Terrier

This quilt will be sent to Linusproject. I love to sew and felt that I could recreate some great children's quilts for charity. Using the Linked Up quilt tutorial allowed the 5" squares to really show up and bordering them with white Jelly Roll kept me from cutting 2 1/2" strips. I hate cutting. I had a black Honey Bun for the framing and finished with a 5" border. I really enjoyed the process. The Charm Pack allows enough 5" squares to make two baby blankets. Now to make a sandwich and quilt it all together.

Gem Illusions

My granddaughter is such a gem that I purchased the 10 Carat Gems Layer Cake set by Wilmington for her Ball State University graduation quilt. It will sparkle in any place she chooses to use it. I used the tutorial by Jenny in cutting and sewing but did make the quilt much larger than Jenny's. Erin loves optical illusions and fell in love with the quilt as soon as I gave it to her. It was backed with a coordinating Wilmington wide backing and the binding was made of strips of left over fabric sewing together to make the colorful, but matching binding. A fine local long arm quilting friend did the quilting for me.
