Holiday Lap Quilt

Made over 2 afternoons just for myself to use for naps in December!  This is the SUPER simple split 9-patch made with a pack of Christmas charms and 4 strips of 5" white cut into squares and 2 strips (plus a  few charms) of red, with a 4 1/2" border (again a few stray charms in the corners.)  I made (8) 9-patch units with red in the center, charms in the corners, and white in the other spots and then "split" them.  Real fun!

I could do it again with FLANNEL charms........ baby charms......... charms charms charms!

A warm Christmas Quilt

Big block in traditional colors made this quilt go together quick.  But then I put it away for a few years and pulled it out this Christmas-time to quilt with my new Juki machine.  Machine quilting the bigger quilts is so easy on the Juki!  This quilt went to my grand-niece Jenny for her Christmas season bed!

A Stocking, not a quilt!

A new baby in the family!  Just an excuse to make quilts and such!
