Finished piecing earlier this week. Backing fabrics are on the way and I can't wait to get started quilting!

A baby quilt for a friend. I got the pattern here: www.u-createcrafts.com/2010/08/creative-guest-quilting-ma... .
inspired by the amazing log cabin quilt in suzuko koseki's machine made patchwork, now available in english under the title, patchwork style.
a 4 part tutorial can be found here.
after assembling and quilting each block 'as i went', the blocks were then sewn together. the quilt in the book is tied but i opted not to do that, instead quilting around the edge of each block, then around the center piece (red print) in each block and then one more 'square' between that center piece and the outside edge of each block.
each block starts with a different red print in the center. fabrics used were a mix of new, thrifted, vintage, and used clothing. the backing and binding are both a solid red kona cotton.
Thanks to Hillary lang for the inspiration and BH&G for the free pattern! The apple green is new yardage. All the prints except for one are vintage feed and floursacks. Dare you to find the reproduction fabric :)
This is my version of the Gypsy Wife quilt by Jen Kingwell - I used all Bonnie and Camille fabric by Moda. This has been such a fun quilt top to make and I'm excited to work on quilting it!
Quilted by my husband's grandmother. Not sure of date but probably in the 50's. It was called a "summer quilt".
There are 80 charm squares (5" x 5"), mostly from my scraps along with the remnants of the Moda Summer in the City charm square pack that I used on this quilt. The sashing is 3" (with seam allowance). The final quilt is about 60" x 70" or a generous lap quilt size. I'm not sure where the binding fabric came from, but it's a generic pin point orange polka dot. The backing is a fabric from Joanns.
This quilt was so fun to do! All I needed was two charm packs and one days work. But now it's been on my wall for a couple of weeks waiting to be quilted. It's a challenge for me as I am so very tired of STIPPLING.
A bit scissor heavy in the top left hand corner and some blocks are upside down, so need to shuffle the blocks around a bit. It's strange how you can see it better on a photo than just looking at it!
Detail of a quilt made with a friend using all vintage and repro 30's fabrics. This baby quilt was the last one I made. The baby is 3 now!!
This is Dream On with a variety of solids. The pattern is the Awesome Quilt by Jamie Mueller, it is from the Moda Bakeshop. This is my first quilt for 2011.
I had so much fun making this quilt. I used 10 different fabrics, stacked them in sets of five and randomly cut the slices with my rotary (a fresh blade helps!). Inspired somewhat by Denyse Schmidt "Any Way you Slice It" but without the trouble of using templates! 36x44"
Quilt made with Denyse Schmidt Hope Valley Fabrics.
Pattern is Camille Roskelley's Piece of Cake.

I made a patchwork quilt for a present for my niece Nella's first birthday. It's the second quilt I've made and first of this size. Minna helped me with the hemming when I kind of lost my mind with that part. Maybe it's not the most perfect quilt but I'm still very pleased with how it turned out and I hope my niece and her parents like it too! :)
Baby quilt using Moda's Bungle in the Jungle charm pack and Alice Kennedy's owl print on the back and binding. I forgot the name of the print. The arrangement was first seen on the SwimBikeQuilt blog.

It's measuring about 3ft x 3ft now :) It's getting harder to work on as each side is now taking longer than the average Declan nap, so I'm having to break it up a lot more.
