Another Baby Quilt Completed!

I had hoped to be a much more active quilter. Unfortunately, I have a muscle issue (high enzymes) that causes fatigue within a few minutes while I do anything. I am on medication for it, but it only helps so much. So, I do what I can when I am feeling up to it.

I have a grand-daughter due on New Years Eve!! I did manage to finish a quilt for her and it is so girly and pink!

I will start with working photos and then the one where she is holding it up.

I decided to do quick and easy, random placement of half square triangles.


getting there....

quilted and bound

some different angles..love every fabric in this.


My son and his fiance (whom I adore) In this photo, he touched it, looked at me and said "You made this Mom?" Like I haven't been quilting for the past 3 years and it is a complete shock to him..haha

This is the quilt in the crib :) They love it.

I have finished sewing the backing together for this quilt
The top measures 104 x 92 inches. Call me crazy..should have been done a long time ago, but alas.. 
Tomorrow, my Mom comes over and we are going to get it sandwiched. This one is for my oldest son, then I have one more large one to make for the couple above and after that..I think I will stick to couch quilts..lol

Thank you for letting me share with you!

Zack's Quilt

I started quilting in January 2015. I have made one quilt for myself. One for my father, one for my grandson, one for my sister, I have one I am working on for my cousin who helps me out all the time...and today, I have started one for my oldest son, Zack. Before I can get back to doing for myself..I have to make one for my younger sister, my younger son and my other grandson. And that's it! After that, it is going to be all about me for a while! :)

here is the pattern I created for Zack's Quilt:

Here are my fabric selections:

Those stars glow in the dark by the way and this gives me the giggles, I can picture him bringing a girl into his room (he has an apartment), turning out the lights and his bed starts to glow...haha...

I cut out fabric for the King's Crown block today:

And here is all my fabric, cut and ready to start sewing on...tomorrow.



I will keep you updated with my progress! Thanks for stopping in!
