Squares and Shadows

This quilt, for me, is very restrained.  In stark white and pastels, solids, the blocks are all the same, no surprise red or green anywhere. I quilted it by machine in an allover 2 inch grid. Laundered, it crinkled up nicely. It's for "a baby."

Bright Happy Baby Flowers

Experimenting with a setting from a book called "Circle Of Nine." You make 9 blocks (about the number I can make before getting bored!) and then make some half sized rectangles and such for staggering the 9 blocks in a circle. I really like the effect!   This is a little girl quilt, to be donated to a premature baby who is going home from the hospital soon.
The charm pack was named "LOL"

Birthday for a Momma

What mother doesn't delight in little reminders of their precious children?  So I got my grandkids to make me some handprints (or in the case of the new baby footprints!) on muslin squares.  Then I set them in a bright happy collection of charms and bordered it all with some Happy Birthday Cakes.
Happy 34th birthday to Amber.
