I picked up this pattern and kit for a bargain at a quilt shop in Burley, Idaho when Terry and I went there for our anniversary this year. It was originally $88 and I got it for $26. Great quality fabrics called Happy Home by Tara Reed for Riley Blake. Five of the blocks are pieced and four panels with birds and quotes on them. I will keep this one to display on our dining room wall occasionally. It's up right now, but will be replaced before the end of the summer. It is about 63 x 63 inches. Quilted with leaves and half swirls.

Layers of Charm

I had planned for this one to be a charity quilt, but Jessica liked this one so much that I gave it to her. I put white Minky on the back. It's 57 x 57. I made a matching table runner, but didn't get a picture of that.

Spring Town

A favorite now and a keeper! The pattern is by Chelsi Stratton and the fabrics are by her and her Mom, Sherri. I used Raspberry Summer and Strawberry Lemonade fabrics.

Another Charity Quilt

My Happy Place Quilt

I tried to take some close-up pictures of this one but couldn't get them to turn out for some reason. I will try again later. 

This took a few months to make and has a lot of detail. It's too large to fit on my sewing room wall, so it's hanging in our dining room right now.

It's a Lori Holt pattern and is 76 x 82 and I used mostly Lori Holt and vintage fabrics. It's kind of my magnum opus.

I really do love it and plan to keep it forever.

Flowers for A Friend

Ashlee Thompson fell on the ice and tore her knee up pretty bad, so she will have surgery soon. I planned on giving this quilt to charity, but I think it fits her personality, so will give it to Ashlee.

Charity Quilt #4

This one is called Flight Path. Made mostly with fabrics by Tula Pink called Tiny Coordinates. The individual blocks were simple enough, but it was very time-consuming. I had helpers on this one. Three of my granddaughters (Lula, Darcy, and Allison) were here over Christmas break, so they helped by marking lines on the back of blocks and pressing. And pressing,  And pressing. Crytsal was here over the weekend for my birthday, so she even helped with some pressing. The finished size is about 56 x 74.
