A Quilt for Seth's Boy

This is the front of the quilt.  It is a crib-size quilt (45 x 60 in).
The chevron pattern was created by alternating placement of rectangle shapes.
Fabrics are Auburn University prints combined with white and orange solids.
Some were purchased locally, most were ordered from Fabric.com.

This is the back of the quilt.  Blue and Orange  'camo' print.
I added the center strip to make the backing fabric wide enough.

A Quilt for Charlotte

I made this crib-sized quilt for a new great niece, Charlotte 

who is due to arrive around March 2, 2016.

It is made from a fabric panel called "Whoo Me?" that I ordered from Fabric.com

The borders around the panel were cut from a coordinating border print fabric.

I also made a pillow case from the border print fabric for a travel-size pillow.

The quilt binding was made from this fabric.

The back of the quilt was made from this fabric,

which matches the leaves on the trees (front of quilt).

This is the border print that I used around the panel.

"The Grinch" Quilt

Dr. Seuss - How the Grinch Stole Christmas quilt

This was made using a 'panel' from Fabric.com

The finished size is about 44 x 60

Bottom half

This shows the back of the quilt (white background)

This is the matching pillowcase.

I used one of the fabric panels for the front of the pillowcase(top).

The lower photo is the back of the pillowcase.

This is a travel size pillow 12 x 16 purchased from Hobby Lobby.

A Pillow for Bryce

This is the front of the pillowcase. 

The fabric matches the corner fabric on Bryce's quilt.  

(see last picture in this post)

This is the back of the pillowcase.

 It has Bryce's birth information embroidered on it. 

The fabric used was left over from making the quilt.

The travel size pillow was purchased from Hobby Lobby.

This is Bryce's quilt which I made one year ago before he was born.

The pillow was completed for his first birthday party.

Halloween Quilting Project

This is a quilted table or bed runner.

(It is folded in half)

This is a closer view which shows some of my 'first' hand quilting.

It's much harder than it looks. 

It also aggravates the ole carpal tunnel syndrome. 

This is the back, so it can be reversed after Halloween.

and the pillowcase to match for my niece, Leah

who has an October birthday....

and (I found out later) a lime-green bedroom

so this matches perfectly.

Alabama & Auburn Pillowcases

University of Alabama

I made and donated both of these pillowcases to the

Valley Haven School Auction which will be held Friday night, April 27 2012.

Auburn University
(both pillowcases are standard size)

Auburn Dreams

My nephew Laine will be 13 tomorrow.

He asked for an Auburn pillowcase.

I really like how the orange/white stripe trim turned out.

Sweet (Auburn) Dreams!

Christmas Gifts Last Year

Last year for Christmas,  I made each child in my

Kindergarten Sunday School Class a pillowcase with their name on it.

I don't know what I will make this year.  I have 4 boys and 2 girls in my class.

A few of them were in my class last year so the gift has to be different.

Any suggestions for 4 & 5 year olds?
