Mom's Quilt

Mom pieced her first quilt in at least 20 years. I'd say she did a pretty good job. Marilyn is machine quilting it for her with her long arm machine. Here is a picture of Marilyn with the latest project.

Beautiful job girls!

Welcome!

I wanted to start a blog to chronicle my quilting projects. It has been almost a year since I started quilting, and I've completed two quilts. OK, so that's not a great amount of output - a full time job really gets in the way of my quilting time!

I may also post some of my little sewing projects. That was totally scary. I can't even believe I just typed that. I've come along way since the days of 4-H clothing projects. Thanks to my mom for teaching me the basics of sewing.

Here is my latest quilt creation. It is a baby quilt made for my friend and coworker's new baby, Brendyn.

This pattern is called Tumbling Through the Stars. Sally Gawthrop was the instructor for this project. All of the Church Mice girls are working on this pattern. I'll post their versions once I get some pictures from them.


This is Brendyn's older brother Rylan. He is checking it out for baby bro.
