Floating boxes






Floating boxes like wonky blocks was fun to make. Again I was making it for someone who had just had their second daughter so I had to make a "big sister" doll quilt to match.
To quilt it I tried my hand at "stitching in the ditch"... I need to practice and slowwww down. Backed with a fun bird/nest motif. Happy how it worked out.
Quilt is 100% cotton, measures 48 x 48 inches.
Doll quilt measures 17 x 17 inches.

Wonky block




Ufo completed, yay!
I finished it by meandering around and every now and then making a little heart shape to end the stitch line. Well I tried my best to... I need some practice and speed control. Have to tell myself " slowdown, it's not a race"! Need to be a little light footed...
100% cotton, measures
54 x 43 inches

Kaffe Blue




Ah Kaffe, how I love his fabric! Every pattern, every color. And to my delight my little neighborhood quilt store in now carrying a selection. The shop owner thought I was nuts dancing around exclaiming my love for Kaffe... lol.

I started taking his books out of library, drooling over it all. I had to buy them, have them around. Gotta get me some Kaffe...

So I bought some blue... wonky block, splashed with color twin size. This was made for my 10 year old niece who is crazy for blue. Hope she likes it as much as I had fun making it!

wonky block quilt

Another ufo. It is going to be a funky crib quilt. I had "boy" in mind but wouldn't you know it both my friends had girls sooo... wonky star quilt was quickly made in its place.

Not sure how I want to finish it...
