Frozen Quilt

I made this quilt back in December 2014. I didn't blog about it because I kept thinking I would get a picture of it on the bed in my granddaughters Frozen bedroom. Her bedroom turned out so cute!!

 

I made the border a little wider at the top so the design is

 centered when the top of the quilt is folded down

 

 

and I appliqued her name onto the top

 

and added some pretty polka dots to the back

 

I hope you are enjoying your week-end

doing the things you like to do!!!

Lap Quilt for the Beach

Another quilt that was so much fun to make......well, I don't think I have ever met a quilt that wasn't fun to make

fabric with sunglasses and beach chairs is just perfect

to kick back in a recliner and snuggle up with

while at the beach

 

and the bright colors I love so much

make it even better

 

 

the fabric line is Sanibel by Moda.

and here is a look at the back.

 

I hope you have a fun week-end doing the things you enjoy!

Deer Quilt

I love this quilt! The bright colors - oh the bright colors I do love.

My son asked me for a king size quilt and I started buying fabric

right away. Well I kept buying fabric 

(I know I was going about this backwards, haha!)

 but couldn't decide what

pattern I was going to use until I saw this one.

then I cut one out and appliqued it onto a square.

What???? I have to do 70 of these??? This is going

to take me forever..... then

I did a little bit of searching on the internet

and found this deer made for machine applique

YES

It still took quite a bit of time but it was much faster and

Well worth the effort.

Bird Quilt

This is a quilt top I put together a long time ago and finally quilted it

I just love this little bird it is so cute!!

 

this pattern is for a table runner but I wanted to

use it double to make a quilt and I'm so glad I did

it is super cute, the picture really doesn't do it justice.

I used the same fabric for the backing that I used in the border.

I have another really cute quilt coming up that I made for my son

so stay tuned!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week-end!

Another Rag Quilt

I have had this fabric for so long - just sitting there waiting to become a quilt.
I have so many quilt tops waiting for me to long arm so I decided to make another rag quilt - besides it is so much fun to make and goes together so fast - I even enjoy snipping the seams - I find it so relaxing.

 

 

 

 

 

I've already given it to my cute little grand-daughter.

It's so good to be sewing!!!

A Teacher's Rag Quilt

I made this rag quilt for a very special teacher.

Her first year as a teacher she taught my son

in her kindergarten class

She is still teaching and also driving a school bus now

 

 

and has taught 3 of my grandchildren

 

 

When I saw these Dear Teacher designs at Bunnycup Embroidery

I knew I had to make her a quilt.

She is such a wonderful teacher!!!!

 

I didn't center all the designs, I was trying to make the quilt look child like

 

 

 

I hope she loves this quilt as much as we love her
