These are just some things I've finished in the past six months or so that haven't made it onto the blog as yet!
I decided when I started quilting that I was going to make each of my small circle of best friends a special quilt when they turned 30. I was not smart enough to think that 3 of the six would do so within six months of each other. Kelly M, being first, is the only one who has gotten hers so far. I still owe Jamie K, and Christy as their special day had passed before I started quilting, Ali C. and Marci Z. for this year, they are in the works. Next year is Katie J, then a year later the baby of the group, me! So i'm trying to get at least one done by Christmas and then two of them have early birthdays next year! This one is Kelly's "Starflies." There are butterflies on the black, plus the double meaning of flying time. I can't believe it has been 16 years since those of us who are the core of the group met in middle school!
This one was gifted to Lauren S. for baby Jack at her shower in March. I called it "Sock Monkey it to Me". With enough fabric left from the two monkey quilts (this one and one in the girly colorway for Whitney B.
's Olivia) to make two more quilts, I'll have to get creative with names...
This quilt was designed by myself and my Bestie Ali C. for her nephew. I asked her what she wanted for Christmas last year, and she told me a quilt for her new nephew! So I let her pick the fabric, which is Moda's Animal Alphabet line. Then I put the quilt together and quilted it! Gifted at the belated shower in May as baby Evan decided to arrive early.
