Completions for February

The following are more great grand baby quilts.

This quilt looks like sunshine to me.

I used the Whirly Gig pantogram for the quilting on this quilt.

This quilt has a fun orangy batik for the border fabric. I used the Baptist fan groovy board for the quilting on this quilt.

These quilts were completed the first part of Febrauary.

More January Finishes

I have over 15 baby quilts completed for our future great grand babies.

These two quilts have the same border print fabric.

This quilt has a figured flannel backing

This quilt has a striped backing. Both quilts were quilted with the Whirly Gig pantogram.

This quilt is very much like the previous quilts.

I used the Baptist fan pantogram for this quilt.

This quilt is actually a charity baby quilt.

I used the Whirly Gig pantogram and I pieced the backing with a few different leftover flannels.

I completed these quilts in January.

First 2018 Quilt Finish-1st couple weeks of January

I am finally blogging about my quilt completions for this year, Yeah!

The following are two quilts and pillowcases for our new to us trailer. I decided that the accent colors for the trailer would be aqua, teal and turquoise.

The pillowcases are coordinated with the quilts.

I forget at this time what pattern this quilt was made after but I think it was a Jenny Doan pattern.

I used the baptist fan groovy board from my HQ long arm machine to quilt it.

I used a medium tan background fabric for this quilt.

This one is just a charm type quilt pattern I made by myself.

I used a cream color fabric for the background for this quilt.

I used the Whirly Gig pantogram for this quilt and I used the same sheet pattern for both quilts.

I will now work on blogging on the many quilts I have finished in the last 5 months.

Wow, life gets a little crazy sometimes

I have finally completed a quilt. This Fall was a very busy and sometimes very stressful time!

In August my husband had surgery. One month later I had a total knee replacement and in the middle of my recovery my mother went down. The colon cancer caught up to her and took her life. She ended up with me at my home on hospice and past away on October 13th.

I was able to do some piecing in that time frame but was not up to the quilting until this past week.

This is a Jenny Doan pattern.

I bought this jelly roll several years ago and I think this quilt will look great in my spare bedroom.

I used the Whirly Gig pantogram with a varigated purple Superior Thread.

I am planning to keep this quilt for myself. I have two quilts planned for our new trailer and can't wait to get started on them.

Keep on Scrappin!

Wow, Another Charity Quilt Finish

I am happy to say that I have another quilt finish.

This is a Jelly Roll Race quilt. I have never liked these quilts but......

I had 3 huge bins of 2 1/2 inch strips cut. They were very old fabrics and I wanted to get them used up. So therefore a Jelly Roll Race was decided upon. I picked pink, green and yellow strips.

One of the borders are strings I pieced a few years back and the 4 patches also were made a few years ago. I pieced the backing from 10" squares.

I quilted this quilt with the Baptist Fan on my HQ and used a dark yellow thread.
Since I put this top together a couple of months ago I have cut up more fabric and I now have even more 2 1/2 inch strips in my bins. I am trying so hard to get my stash under control but I don't think I am winning this race.

I am now working on baby quilt tops for great grandchildren.
I will Keep on Scrappin!

Another Charity Quilt

This is the last of the retreat quilts that I have completed.

These blocks were left overs from a quilt I made a few years ago.

I used the baptist fan for the quilting.

I also used 10" squares for the backing.

This a rather small quilt but I think it will work for a crib size quilt or a lap quilt for a wheel chair.

I will be piecing along over the next couple of months but I am not sure I will be able to do any quilting.  Time will tell!
Keep on Scrappin!

Slowly a Completion

I am happy to say I have a completion!

This is a orphan block charity quilt.

Last summer I had a quilt retreat here with two daughter in laws and one grand daughter.

This is one of those quilt. I pieced squares together for the backing.

I used the groovy board for the quilting.

I have another quilt from this retreat to post about in a few days.
I will keep Scrappin but the next couple months will be heavy with life things to do. So I will do the best that I can.
