I’m BACK!!!😁

Hello again!  Sorry I have been away so long!  I have gone back to teaching school full-time, I now have two teenagers and one with a driver’s license (another in driver’s ed!)!  Oh how the time flies!  Anyway, I am still quilting on the side, though it is difficult to find the time. I haven’t pieced anything of my own in years, literally, but that is hopefully about to change!  

Since I have been living in the polar vortex all week, I decided that I needed to see something that looks more like spring!  Therefore, I put up this lovely quilt!  It’s a MODA Frivol #11!  It certainly doesn’t feel like spring outside, but I can have a little piece hanging on my wall inside!

Here is a sweet table runner that has a LOT of gorgeous hand work!

If you LOVE purple...!!!

 

This quilt was done by a lady's grandma...it has so much character!  (Wonder if grandma did too? LOL)

 

Some flowers and feather were added and the ice cream border just received some soft wavy lines.

 

Here is the very center of the quilt...such a sweet design.

Big QUILT!!!

This quilt was BIG!  It was over 100 x 100...don't remember actual dimensions.  It is really hard to piece a big accurately and yet she did awesome!

 

 

This was a beautiful quilt made by a friend for her brother who was retiring!  What a great retirement gift!

 

I tried to keep the quilting in the same colors the same.  The red received feathers.

 

Here the tan was meandered and the blue CC's.

 

The brown was treated with ribbons.

 

More feathers on the red border and more ribbons in the brown border.

 

Another view of the borders.

Ok...I am going to try and add a ton of photos of quilts over the next few weeks.  I am totally behind and been so super busy with life, but I would like to work on getting back into posting a bunch of pictures.  Enjoy!

 

So, this was a super fun quilt made by a sweet friend for her boyfriend...for a x-mas gift (last xmas!!!).

 

 

It has some straight lines and fun swirls!!!

 

Here is a sweet baby quilt in pinks and greys!

There are feathers in the colored chevrons and fluffy swirls in the white!
