Swoon!

Another Block I've worked on,
this is from the SWOON quilt pattern,
it's my tester block,
not to shabby for my 3rd ever block if I may say so myself, I did pretty well with my 1/4in seams because .....it came out perfectly 24.5 in just like the pattern calls for :D

This will get worked up into a Doll Quilt with cordinating Birthday Doll.
Any takers on calling DIBS so you can customize the hair & eye color?
shoot me an email if so

Work In Progress (Scrappy Quilt)

What I'm working on.......

A WIP over on my personal blog- its sewing related but for some reason I started the post over there? So I'll keep them over there for now.

Mini Quilt = Pillow


One of the finished Mini Quilts from the SewAlong over at Fresh Squeezed
I ended up turning it into a throw pillow, it also was my first PIF suprise of the year.
I just busted out three things at once- new block practice, first pillow, first PIF.
Not to bad for the first 2 weeks of the year

Pic 1 the top, its the courthouse steps block - with my own twist, the last two rows became the borders.

Pic 2 here it is sandwiched & quilted



Pic 3 the pillow insert, made of muslin & stuffed with fabric scraps (to small to do anything with, odds & ends of thread etc. ) such a great way to use them up- something I learned from the Sassy Blog
the back is a thicker canvas




Pic 4 All done & ready to gift

mini quilt step 2



Step 2 from the post below done


It turned out to be the perfect size for the doll.

I can't wait to get the set up for yall to see (& buy!)


Thinking of doing another for an ACU doll I have in the works.


Check on back next Tuesday for what it'll look like after step 3.

New things~

Here's a before picture of a mini quilt for a SewAlong I'm following over at FreshSqueezedThe mini quilt will cordinate with a Masako Doll that I just finished up. Should be listed soon









One of my goals this year is to learn more about quilting, here's a picture of my first quilt block.
