Cody's Quilt 4

I have finished another easy quilt

mind you not by the deadline

set for me by the recipient!!

I made all my children quilts years ago,

when they all had smaller beds,

they have since all grown to bigger beds

see my dilemma!!

Cody was the first to ask for a new quilt

He picked the same colors as his bedroom

which he had picked those colors from his first quilt

I used a super easy pattern

I found on Pinterest

It is a brick pattern from Moda Bake Shop

It was a beast of a thing to quilt

I used  micro fibre blanket for the backing, as well as a layer of batting,

so he should be nice and warm

Next project, nice little doll sized quilts

Happy Monday





Cards

I packed up my sewing machine one day this week

 

so I could make cards.

 

I needed a few made, still need a few more

 

but at least I got started.

 

 

I made this first one as an anniversary card

yes, I even made the envelope too

cool huh?

 

 

and a sympathy card

 

I will be back later this week to share my sons quilt with you

 

Thanks for stopping by

Happy Saturday



Twin Quilts 2 and 3

Beautiful twin quilts

for

beautiful twin girls

I LOVE this Fabric!!

Vintage Modern for Moda

By Bonnie and Camille

I first seen it when I came across the

Camille half of the partners blog

Simplify

This woman has the BEST sewing room EVER!!!!!

I tweaked the

Weekender pattern, that I used in my OLIVE quilt

I wanted to make it for a twin sized bed

I added a row with the girls names,

and 2 more rows of patches to make them longer

Cute right??

I just loved them

(it was a cloudy rainy day when I finished Scarlett's,

 so I was unable to photograph outdoors)

I hope the girls love them as much as I did

I am glad I have lots of fabric left to make myself

a Vintage Modern quilt too!!

I wanted to share with you, a picture of the girls enjoying their cozy quilts

Happy Thursday

Fall

I made myself a set of fall place mats

 

and a table runner,

 

while it was still summer.

 

Not long ago, when the kids started school

 

my youngest says, "since we are in school

 

that means it is fall, time to switch to the fall stuff"

 

 

I used a basket weave pattern

that I found on Pinterest

it is from a pattern at the Moda Bake Shop

 

The pattern was used for a rug, but I wanted to make a table runner

 

The pattern calls for jelly rolls strip which are 2.5 inches to be folded in half,

I folded them for the table runner,

but decided I liked them better at their full width for the place mats

 

The one above is my favorite

 

Again like my summer set, none are the same

 

Sorry for the poor color and lighting, we had cloudy weather the day these were taken

 

Sorry that they are dirty, I had thought they were straight out of the wash, guess not

 

Happy Monday
