Irish Chain quilt

This is a quilt I made for my sister-in-law while she was expecting.  It is the single Irish Chain design, full size quilt.  I had originally picked the colors for a baby quilt, prior to knowing their nursery would be nautical themed, so I altered the design and some of the fabrics for an adult.

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.

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.
