This is the most recent baby boy quilt I made. I only found out that my cousin was expecting about five days before her C section, so I had to step up quickly!

For Catie

This is the first quilt I ever made. My sister talked me into a paper piecing class and I've been hooked ever since. A non-traditional log cabin made for baby Catie, grandchild no. 7! The girls at my local quilt shop helped pick out the fabrics. I used the left over fabric for the back.

Triangles All Around

I made this quilt for my daughter. She found a picture of this quilt in a magazine. I'm not sure it came out just like that one, but she loves it.

Square in a Square

Jenny did a tutorial on the Square in a Square and I fell in love with it. When the Bare Essentials Black and White was the deal of the day I knew it was perfect for this pattern. I was right!! I use 1 charm pack and 1 jelly roll in the Bare Essentials line. And half of a jelly roll each of the black and white solids.

Ellie's quilt

I made this for a girl I work with. Her niece is 3 years old. I appliqued her name and some elephants with a heart in between them.

Navy Hexies

This is the very first experience I ever had with quilting. A very crafty and patient friend walked me through how to use a rotary cutter, how to sandwich each hexagon and how to hand sew sew one, then sew them all together. It is still a work in progress, started as a pillow top, then to baby quilt and now on the way to becoming single bed quilt.

Mostly Morse

This quilt was a quilt kit picked up on our 2014 summer road trip through Paducah, Kentucky... Of course I visited the renowned Hancocks of Paducah. The best way to convince my husband that I "needed" a quilt kit was to pick one of his own heart. As an amateur radio operator, who could possible say no to a pattern called "Morse Code"? I finished piecing this for my husband on Field Day weekend this summer (2015) when lots of Ham's around the country are flexing the radio frequency bands. Consider this my CQ.. CQ. It doesn't say much, E, A, ?, !... maybe I just left the rest unsaid. The piecing is great for 2 1/2" Jelly roll strips. These were Tonga Treats Batiks. I quilted it using a pattern called "Funky Fans".

Lakeside Pyramids by Moda

I found this fabric line and LOVED it. Loved it so much, that I bought three items from the Lakeside Gatherings by Moda line. These are what I've sewn so far.

Got the Blues?

Adaptation of log cabin quilt, inspired by a photo I saw somewhere! Four squares joined together by bolder prints crossing in the middle. I wanted to elongate the quilt as it was square, thus the added strips at the top and bottom. Not yet quilted but backing is smaller flowers across center quilt and binding a small white swirl print, part of the collection but not used in the quilt.
