Strip and Flip baby quilt

 I used this easy tutorial:  http://www.cluckclucksew.com/2012/07/tutorial-strip-and-flip-baby-quilt.html

 with my Tula Pink Acacia jelly roll.

 Baby Cora Ruth was recently seen on Facebook lounging on her new quilt :-)

 This adorable fabric is from Heather Ross.  So perfect for a baby girl.  I hope she grows up loving this quilt.  
I did free-motion quilting on it, and hearts down the flipped strip, but I forgot to take a picture of that.
Blessings to little Baby Cora and her family.

Large modern log cabin

 I said good-bye to this quilt last weekend - sniff, sniff!

 In December at my family's Christmas party my nephew and his wife won it in a raffle.  It's one of my favorites.  It's quite large and my husband had trouble holding it up.  The negative space on the left is all different shades of a nice, soft linen.

And the back is a cute campground fabric.

Big Love Valentine wallhanging

 My Big Love quilt was on the wall behind my desk at work, but I brought it home yesterday, and then forgot to blog and wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day!  

I got tired of quilting the inside of the heart, mostly because it was not coming out exactly right, so I quit.  But I like the puffiness of how it ended up.  And here's the back:

This the tutorial I used:  http://dearstelladesign.com/2014/01/big-love-quilt-tutorial-from-modern-handcraft/
It was quick and easy.
I hope you have a happy weekend ~ may you bless and be blessed!

I Spy quilt for Ezra

I made Ezra's I Spy quilt by raw-edge appliquing all these little cute things I've been collecting for about a year.  It's roughly a twin size.

It was lots of work, but I hope he has some fun with it.  He did manage to christen it already in the middle of the night recently.  Poor mom and dad had quite a mess to clean up I imagine.  But the quilt, and Ezra, came out okay in the wash!

Mug rugs

I've been busy making mug rugs for the ladies that volunteer their time in our church nursery.  I collected coffee/tea/soup mugs from TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Home Goods, etc. and I'm matching up some fabrics to complement them.  It's fun and I hope they like them.

Whole cloth hand quilting

I received this queen-sized whole cloth quilt from a coworker.  Her partner's mom passed away, leaving behind this almost-finished lovely muslin beauty.  She was a pretty fair hand-quilter.  I hope to do it justice and get it finished some one of these days.  It's really tough on the fingers, though, thus, the thimble.  

Baby girl quilt kit finished

I finished this baby quilt a while ago but have not been able to gift it to the recipient YET.  Hopefully this coming weekend.

I thought this kit was going to be sewn together like a Trip Around the World - wrong.  Each piece had to be sewn together individually!  But it's pretty, nonetheless.

I love the backing fabric - I think it's Philip Jacobs?  And I didn't have quite enough so I put a strip of gray on the left side.  I hope Olivia likes it!  She was born May 3 and shares her birthday with my son, who is now 24 years old.
By the way, Happy New Year to you all!
