I am nearly finished with the newest baby quilt. I still have to put the label and pre-wash before it goes on it’s way!

Simple patch baby quilt
This is a baby shower gift I am working on right now. The parents are waiting until the baby’s birthday to discover the gender, so they had chosen bedding from Crate and Barrel’s The Land of Nod. It is bedding with dark grays and yellows, so the quilt colors reflect that.

Irish Chain quilt
T-shirt quilt (Sam Houston State University, FFA, Houston Rockets themes)
This is a t-shirt quilt I made for a friend’s husband. He is a Sam Houston State Alumni, Previously taught for the FFA chapter, and a Houston Rockets fan, so the shirts are a little random, but that was what he wanted. This is throw sized (probably in between full and queen).

Wedding gift
This is one of the last quilts I finished for a very close friend for her wedding gift. It is the log cabin design, called “Barn Raising” and can be arranged in a variety of ways to make different designs.

Max’s quilt-larger than crib size
This is a quilt I made for our nephew, Max. He loves cars and all things boy, so I did just a mix-match of all the things and colors he would like. This quilt was in between crib and twin size.
This was just before I finished the binding on the quilt. |
The backing was a pieced backing similar to the front. |
Brody’s baby quilt
Sophia’s baby quilt
Some of my favorite projects are making gifts for relatives or friends who are expecting. Most of the baby blankets I make are using the same basic design, but they can be changed to anything. This was the first baby quilt I made for my niece, Sophia.
Still in the works…
Completed.
This was the second quilt I made. |
