Yvonne brought me this neat butterfly quilt.

A work in progress.

Thanks Yvonne!

 

Motocross Shirt Quilt

Vicky made this T-shirt and motocross racing uniform quilt for her grandson.

I just outlined the rider in the photos.

Thanks Vicky!

 

Vicky's T-Shirt Quilt

This is one of two T-shirt quilts made by Vicky for her highschool graduating grandkids.

This one had denim, knit, cotton, fleece, and sweatshirt materials. And no interfacing.

You can see in the tippy top of this picture that I basted down the sides that were rolling up.

One little section even had two layers of sweatshirt from the pocket of a hoodie. (navy blue in bottom center) With Hobbs 80/20 batting and a thick minky backing- it was about too thick to fit under the foot of my machine.

Just a lot of things to think about and work with and quilt around with this one. But, it turned out just fine. Thanks Vicky!

Kismet

This quilt is made by my family for a graduating great-niece. 

It is called Kismet. Love the blues and greens.

I used a variegated thread in matching blues and greens. It blends in so well, it is hard to see it.

Love using up lots of scrappy strips. Congrats Anna!

Sadie's Row Challenge

Back in 2008, my mom, sister, and I decided it would be fun to do a row challenge where each person would make a row of blocks in whatever theme they wanted, and each month we would pass it on until we all got our rows back ready to be put into a quilt.

So, we roped a few family and friends into joining along. This is one of them! This is from Anne, my SIL to be given to her daughter who was in Kindergarten at the time.

Well, Sadie is graduating from high school this year, so what better motivation to get this quilt completed. 

The row I made was the kites.

It was a lot of fun to revisit this project we did ages ago. It was also pretty fun to quilt too!

Congrats Sadie on your graduation, and to Anne for completing this quilt project. I believe it was her first quilt, so a big project to tackle for a beginner for sure.
