Granddaughter's Wedding Gift

Recently I attended the wedding of one of my granddaughters. I worked on a quilt that I thought she

would like, since she likes romantic things.  This one had muted color and vintage doilies.  I was

very pleased with how it turned out and immediately got orders for two more of them!  Whew!








Although it is beautiful, I think that I am most proud of the free motion quilting I did on this one!

I have never before done an all free motion quilt!  It's not perfect, but was an accomplishment for me!






Whatca' think?

Family Baby Quilt

Easter morning


Some time ago, I was asked to make a blanket and crib skirt for my newest grand baby, Emriella Abigail. (Em-ree-L-a)

Eldest Son, Don and family

I finished the blanket/quilt and I'm working on the three layer ruffled crib skirt.  My DIL, Shirley, picked out the fabrics -  she likes bright colors.  Their family picture on Easter is at the right.


Here is the result of the quilt!

Quilter friend, Ritha and I 


Everything is designed around the bright print 

Backing is soft flannel

Free motion quilted and trimmed with satin blanket binding

Free motion quilting continues the print design

Of course, a little tag "Made with love by Grandma"
