Royal Wedding

I love Jenny Doan's tutorials!  When they come out on Friday I can't wait to try a block and often have to sit down and make a quilt immediately!  One charm pack and whites and solids from stash came together beautifully to make this lap sized quilt. 




 Gifted to NEYA

Happy Drunkard's Path

 I got a new ruler!  A drunkard's path. With a charm I can cut both the circle and the background for a 4" block. Need to try it out right away!  A nice bright charm pack, a soothing tone on tone for the "in a square" borders. Viola!


Nice baby sized, or an artsy wall quilt. November 2020.

Baby Ohio Star

 Another quilt inspired by a charm pack and a tutorial on MSQC. Every Friday they publish a quilt tutorial and I can't wait to go try the techniques and shortcuts!  I was able to sell this quilt pretty quickly. I also practiced ruler FMQ in the borders.

Pony Express Baby

 Made from the 5 left-over blocks of another quilt, the pattern is Pony Express and it's made from Layer Cake (10") squares, inspired by a tutorial from Missouri Star Quilts. I made it in 2021, but decided to post it close by the quilt whose blocks I used to make this baby quilt.

Sweet Lap Quilt in pinks and purples

 I followed a tutorial from Missouri Star Quilts. She named this quilt block Pony Express. Isn't it lovely?  I sold the quilt to Mauricio for his sister for Christmas. 



Logan's Long Delayed Baby Quilt

 I made this quilt for the son of good friends back in 2004. Logan is the fourth child of this family. Well, you know how fourth kids get forgotten? Yeah. I found it in 2020!  No joke!  So I called his Mom and finally gave him his quilt. 




The blocks are named "Jumping Jacks" and the pictures were Aunt Martha iron-ons that I then tinted with ink pens. Sorry it took SOOO long!
