I love this little quilt! It was pretty easy, and lots of fun picking out the pinks for it. I made this one for my Sister Lolly's first grand daughter. She was thrilled with it and I am happy to have made it for her! Here is the link for the pattern. http://crazymomquilts.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-to-make-ragged-squares-quilt.html

Thouroughly Modern
It looked so easy!! Just 5 colors sewed with white sashing right? NOT! I don't like lining up sashing!! My daughter in law picked the striped fabric and I had a hard time matching it for some reason. I even bleached them to tone them down a bit. It's still brighter than I think she wanted.
I didn't think out the quilting either. It would be great with an all over pattern but I am still not ready to use my longarm. So I just quilted it in rows, up the stripe and side to side on the colors.
It didn't turn out too bad, but I sure stressed over this one!

Black & White
I made this for Trent. I saw the fabric with letters on ebay and had to incorporate it here. She wanted and arm and a leg for it, but a good MoMo will pay right?
I learned a lot about B&W on this one, like some will look gray if they are not predominately black OR white.

Chenille bad boy!
I call it bad boy because this one was a majorly difficult one to make! Sew 4 or 5 layers of flannel together in 1" channels and then cut through all but one layer. I thought I would NEVER finish this! Oh and because I had 2 grandsons, 2 months apart, I had to make TWO!! Never again! Unless I have another grand baby of course. :D
Ducky Quilt
I love this easy, easy pattern! It's great with a focus fabric and only took me a day to put it together! (I'm slow) The block is Square within a Square 2.
It's a 12" block which makes a fast quilt! Here is the link. http://www.quilterscache.com/S/SquareswithinSquares2Block.html
I made this one for our first grandson, Trent. A friend quilted the bubbles for me. I think they were perfect for this one!

Rosie Posie
And for my first great niece, Segura. I fell in love with this French Roses pattern and the Kashmir IV fabric and she gave me a perfect reason to make this quilt. I really enjoyed making this one and would do it again.
Camping Quilt
My friend needed help making quilts for a burn camp so this is my contribution. I made it for one of the older boys because the girls and little boys are always so easy to design for. It has fishing and hunting and a flannel back. I sure hope he liked it!
2 color OBW.
Hubby complained that he didn't have a quilt yet. I told him that I don't have one either!! So he got his way. I used a hawaiian print because he is always wearing Magnum P.I. shirts. The lady at the quilt shop said this would never work for a One Block Wonders. So I had to prove her wrong of course! I call this one Snow Drift.
As you can tell, I'm a bit obsessed with this pattern.
Pink One Block Wonders
Baby girl quilt. This is the One Block Wonders pattern in a soft shell pink. I made this for a cousin in Florida.
