Quarantine Quilt
I made quite a few "Quarantine Quilts". For some reason I don't have pictures of them all, but this is one of them. I didn't get around to quilting it until 2021. I think I did like 9 that year--HA! One good thing that came out of all that extra time at home. This is lap sized and it's been added to my own personal collection. Most of the other quilts were given away. These fabrics are from an old line of fabrics by Amanda Jean @Crazy Mom Quilts (Instagram). She used to have a blog and I followed it religiously. Love her fabrics, patterns, and she's so sweet and talented.
Annette's Embroidered Quilt
I made this one for my mother a year or so ago. It was the last quilt I did on my Bernina 880 using the embroidery attachment before it broke down (again!). I think I gave it to her for Mother's Day/birthday in April 2021. Each block represents a monthly theme or depicts a season...January is a red cardinal, February the heart with tulips, etc. She has it hanging on a wall in her bedroom and really loves it. She is turning 95 this year, so I need to come up with something new this year--but maybe not a quilt. I've given her quite a few over the years. She does appreciate them, so that's great.
Baby Blues Quilt
I used scraps from another, larger quilt to make what I call Baby Blue's. It's only about 30 x 42 in. I still need to find someone having a baby boy though. Our kids have completed their families, and no baby boys in sight. We have 14 granddaughters and 1 grandson! This one was also done either in Dec. 2020 or Jan 2021, something like that.
National Park Panels
These National Park panels of the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone were done way back in 2020 also. My, how time flies. These were the first panels I did. Found a couple more (in future posts) that I put more detail into. This was a new thng for me, but I think they turned out fine. They became wall hangings for daughter and son-in-law that live near these areas. They can see the tetons from their living room!
From Way Back When
I finished this one for our oldest child in December 2020. It was so much fun to make! I bet nearly everyone can spot a Lori Holt pattern a mile away. She is so talented and I really enjoyed making this quilt, although it took quite a long time. Quarantine, ya know.

Birthday Wall Hanging for Chandler
A Christmas Quilt done in January
I haven't done as much quilting as I would have liked, but did finally finish this Christmas quilt in January! Well, it will be nice to display during the holidays in the future. At least it's done! I mostly put it together using random patterns and made-up patterns. Inspiration was from one a friend made years ago and I swore one day to make a similar one.
