Winter quilt

Quilted with the Midnight Sparkle pattern:

Here's a very good example of how to do a pieced backing....  It isn't always possible to center backing elements perfectly, so this is a good layout- plus it adds visual interest to the back of the quilt.

Quilted with the Midnight Sparkle pattern.  The piecer is going to add the buttons for eyes & other details now that it's quilted.  Very cute!  Every block is different, and some small triangles are less than an inch finished!  

Hexagon quilt

I often get asked if I have time to work on quilts of my own.....  Here's a few pictures of something I've been working on.  It's a super-scrappy hexagon quilt, all machine pieced.  The hexagons are about 2" from point to point.  After doing hundreds of them, I've come up with a pretty good method for matching points on all those Y-seams.  It's been fun to work on- I put on a new row here & there when I have time.  No pressure to worry about running out of the right fabrics!  :-)

I am hoping to have a twin-size quilt when I'm finished.  Right now it's about 55" x 65", so I'm over half way.... so far there are 1131 hexagons in the quilt.
