AUGUST!

     Oh my goodness!  It has been since AUGUST that I last posted!  Oh boy! Life is just out of control busy, so something has to give, and it was the blog!  Sorry!

     I will try to work on catching up...I have gotten a new phone, and new computer since the last post, so all my pictures are scattered everywhere, so bear with me!

     (My oldest also turned 11, and the other two will be another year older in a month!)

     Ok, so here is a quilt that I made from scratch for a very special bride that got married the first weekend of September.  It is made from Connecting Threads fabrics in browns and grays and it was gorgeous!
 
It is made up of 27 different fabrics!


Each block has a set of lights and darks.  It was quilted in a paisley pattern.
 

 
Here you can see the paisley better!

 
And of course a picture of the backing!
 
Now I will add some pictures of the quilts I did for Quilter's General in Rockford.  The first is a Christmas quilt in greens and reds.


 
The corners in black were going to have a holly leaf design with berries.
 

 
The squares have a hook design and swirls in the rest of the black areas.

 
And another angle along the side.

 
 

 
The black being heavier quilted makes the red and green pop more.

 
Lots of movement in the black!
 
I will show more that from Quilter's General next time!
