Peace Out: A Quilt for Myself

 I was inspired by a quilt tutorial online and a collection of unique peace-signs and sixties psychedelic fabrics to make a cuddle quilt just for me!  Set on a black background, with a polyester batting, and the back another in theme fabric, it's so ME and I love it.

AYOQ: ALL HALLOWS EVE QUILT FOR BABY

This is the final of the twelve first months quilts made for my Grandson. Don't know why I saved this for the last. I had the idea and plan in my mind for some time.  I guess I was collecting strips and waiting for some chunks of time.  The back of this great quilt is some red and orange flames on black, and was a gift to me from Shannon, my Co-Grandma. So this, the final quilt, is a joint effort!

This is a fun quilt to make!

I guess the only thing left to make now is his first birthday quilt!  hahahahahsa

Baby Weave

This is a real fun quilt to make; it just LOOKS complicated.  It's made with 2 1/2 inch strips and some solid rectangles.  You attach one strip, then slice the new block, turn it, attach another strip, and so on and so on.  Eventually you finish a block, and put them together however it pleases.  Shopping for all the different strips was more than half the fun!

I love stripes, they make the BEST borders.  Had this one in the sewing room, I liked the blues and greens, so it was added on.

I used this block in a Halloween quilt named Halloween Quilt for a Little Girl.

Halloween Quilt for a Little Girl!

)There are tricks to making this complicated looking block from 2 1/2 inch strips.  So I gathered new and old Halloween fabrics together and started sewing, twisting, cutting.  I love the way it looks!
For Carrie, for the baby to wrap up in during October!
