I took a class for this with from a member of our guild and was sure I could never do it. As you can see I have only gotten the top done so far. It is a good idea to have someone to show you how to do it versus just reading about it. I have used the left over fabric to make smaller squares that I will use in the backing. I really like this technique now and when you do it once, you never forget it.

Dragonflies

On my Shop Hop adventure last year in Vermont, this dragonfly fabric was the highlighted fabric. One of my favourite shops was using it in the patter so I had to try it. For the backing I decided to use my scraps and go modern, and I like it. Very different for me and now I am thinking of doing more mordern designs on the fronts of my quilts.

Baby bib

After saving the flannel scraps from baby quilts, I had an idea to make a scrappy baby bib out of them. It is a nice reminder of all of the blankets I've made for my grand daughter, and uses my scraps at the same time!

Disappearing nine patch- baby quilt

I fell in love with the sheep fabric and just had to try it in a baby quilt. However, I loved the touch of pink on the noses of the sheep, so I added the pink squares and now this quilt can go for a boy or a girl. I tried to free motion quilting and I kept it simple since I'm still learning.

Irish placemat

I just saw a tut on the five inch hex I ruler and thought I'd give it a try. The front will use these two panels, put in opposite directions.

Disappearing nine patch

For our first grand child's first birthday I am doing an I Spy disappearing nine patch. She already has a quilt from Christmas that was a Color Theme. I figure this way I can learn a new pattern for each of her quilts.

Bargello baby quilt in blue

After taking one of my first quilting classes this year , this was one of our projects. It is in the quilting stage now with enough pins to keep every seam happy.
