Criss Cross

Criss Cross three yard quilt is a free pattern from Wood Valley Designs. This has actually been done for a month but I just haven't been able to get decent photos. The colors just are not true to what they really are. In real life the ones that appear yellow are a yellow green, the pink is really brighter, the blue is teal and bit darker than in the photos. The background is the only one true in color!



 Freehand flower swirl made for a quick and cuddly quilt at 41x52. I am now up to six quilts of various sizes for donation. They will go to my DIL's church group to hand out to those who need a snuggle with a quilt.  It makes me happy to be able to make and give these away. There are at least four more in progress. My goal is twelve for the year.



As always I truly appreciate your comments, I read every one and try to respond if I have your email since blogger is saying everyone is a no-reply!

Criss Cross

I have a flimsy! That is what I call a pieced quilt top, it doesn't have batting, backing, quilting or binding yet. The colors are not showing quite right, I tried and tried and it just wasn't getting any better.  This will be a donation quilt for next year, finishing will be later on.  The pattern used is called Criss Cross 3 yard quilt by Wood Valley Designs, a freebie! It measures 41"x 52".

Green for St. Patty's Day

It was a green day in my sewing room lately.  I believe it is not to early to think ahead to coming seasons or holidays. Plus it is always fun to pull out fabrics I haven't worked with for quite a while. Here is what I whipped up...


You all know how much I love working with the 10 degree wedge ruler and you most likely have seen both of these styles I have made before. They are just to fun not to make!!







And just to be a bit different I started with some spring like colors for a donation quilt. You will have to come back to see how it comes out;)



We frequently get deer coming through our yard, these two guys were attacking my pumpkin...


and then they started attacking each other and after several minutes of that this one lost one of his antlers!


Okay back to quilting and off to get more inspiration at these linky parties
