Two more kids quilts

Quilted with the puzzle pattern.








The next one is quilted with the Criss-cross pattern.... I think it looks like tire tracks. 






Another baby quilt- hearts

A quick baby quilt that I put together recently.  I saw the pieced heart block tutorial on www.cluckclucksew.com, and had to try it out.  The blocks went together quickly, and was fun way to use up some scraps from other projects.
I quilted it with the "I Love It" pattern, so there's even more hearts added there.  Pink fleece for the back of the quilt.

Driving from the south

Starting this week, the bridge 1/2 mile south of our house on Kingbird Avenue is being worked on, so the road is closed there.  If you are coming here from Newkirk, then you will need to take a 3 mile detour around the section on gravel.  To avoid that, you'll need to go to highway 18 and come 3 miles south on Kingbird to get to our house.

Custom-made t-shirt quilt

A custom-made t-shirt quilt.... there were over 50 quilt emblems, so I had to get creative to fit them all in.  I ended up making a graph paper diagram, using a 2-inch grid, and laid it all out before starting to make sure they would all fit in the 88x90 size. 



It was quilted with the Square Spiral pattern, and has gray plush Minky on the back. 


Bamboo pattern

Had a quilt come in that worked perfectly with the "Bamboo" pattern...



House quilt

A few of these house quilts have come my way to be quilted, this was one finished using the Baptist Fans pattern.

T-shirt quilts

I can turn your t-shirts into a memory quilt.  All you need to do is provide the shirts, and I will do the rest.

Traditional Layout:  Every shirt is cut to the same size, and is set in a grid format with strips of fabric between each shirt:


Contemporary Layout:  Shirts are cut to varying sizes, with random coordinating blocks between shirts.
