Let's Have a Look-See

I pieced this last summer, then I changed the outer boarder and started quilting it a couple of months ago. I finished the binding this morning and I love it. Not sure what I will do with it, but considering I keep losing quilts when the kids leave the house, I will have to hang on to it. I finished this one yesterday. I love this and Callie helped me pick out pinks and browns for Keith and Courtney. I can't wait to do this one again. I have finished my summer projects. I have some bags to make this week and then I have new fall projects. I think my winter projects will be some throws for the cancer center. I have been looking for patterns and I have some scraps that will make up nicely.

This is hand quilted. Being a hand quilter, I was pretty much amazed at the work that went into this quilt. It won best of show for hand quilting. I love this quilt. It is made from stash and the back is made of different fat quarters. Sometimes quilting can add a new dimension to a quilt and this quilt would be completely different without these flowers quilted into it.

Well, Uncle Rich, I am sorry to tell you that I went to a quilt show and it was so beautiful that I have decided to share it on my blog. This show is at the Springville Art Museum and if you live in Utah, get on over and see it before it is over, it's free and just fabulous. Remember you can click on the images to enlarge them. Enjoy! The Sacred Grove. I don't know how to do this or if I want to learn, but it is nicely done. These are 4 inch squares and they are buggers. Some ladies in my quilt group are working on it. This has the words to 'In the Leafy Tree Tops" on it. Reminded me of a lemon pie. All polka dot fabrics. When I saw this quilt I thought it was a scrappy pinwheel, but upon closer look, the pin wheels are log cabin squares. Amazing! This was one room, I will post so...

I think we all put up pictures of things that look nice, so to be fair, here is my latest project. It is without a doubt a stash-buster. This is a queen size quilt made totally out of scraps. I followed my general rules for scrap quilts, which are, light, dark and accent fabric. When I was making it, all I could think is "Scrapping gone Wrong!" No worries, this is for camping, instead of sleeping bag, and will only be used 1 maybe 2 times a year and only seen by me.
