April Completion-Just barely made it!

This is a completely from stash quilt. It is a king size quilt!


I have made this quilt before and in fact the old one is on my bed right now. It is a double Irish Chain from Bonnie Hunter.


I have drawers full of 2 inch squares cut up and I was trying very hard to make a big dent in these drawers. I made a dent but not a big one.


The background fabric I purchased in Loa several years ago.  The border is a batik I purchased in Panquitch a few years ago. I have also made an apron from this fabric. The lime green poka dots is recently purchased fabric but not specifically for this quilt. I used a king sized flat sheet for the backing. I used a recent pantogram that LouAnn Wilkins purchased for me for quilting her last quilt.


Groot decided he would like to be a quilt star.


He is into a close inspection of the 2 inch squares. I am very pleased with this quilt.

More quilts are lined up for the HQ right now.


March Completions

I have two completions for the month of March.


This wall hanging is my own design. I have collected handkerchiefs for years with the plans to make them into a quilt or wall hanging. I have been very slow in finally doing this. These are just a few of the handkerchiefs that I had.


But I just wanted to use the prettiest ones and then I gave the rest to Jenny. It is time for me to finish up the projects that I have had in my mind for over 30 years. I custom quilted this project.


This wall hanging I made from the book I bought to make a special quilt for Ron. I really liked doing the curved piecing.


I also custom quilted this wall hanging.


I have hung this in the spare bedroom that I have decorated.

On to more Scraps!
