Taking over the only comfy chair in our house, this is the gift quilt for one of the lawyers in J's office. He's retiring and J is taking over his files. A quilt is such a small token of our huge appreciation.
The $5 picnic quilt. It will be for our summer picnics. It cost about $5 for sheets and pillowcaseses and bargain bin fabrics that went inot this. The colours really do blend a lot better in real life. It looks pretty frightening right now!!
A quilt for Z. A big one for when he gets a big boy bed. No rush on this project I hope :) It's the same quilt pattern as the retirement quilt.
I started this dresden plate quilt block years ago and only finished one. It's english paper piecing and while I don't mind paper piecing, this pattern sucked! The individual petals didn't fit together properly and so it's quite wonky. I thought I would use it for the doll quilt swap, but I changed my mind. I think what I have planned is much, much better. It's taking over another living room chair, waiting to be quilted.
Birth announcement cross stitich samper for Z. Totally stalled on this project, I was motoring along really quickly on it, but completely lost momentum. Maybe once the quilts are done...
