Sweet Delight

A fun little half square triangle quilt made of a mix of prints. Backed by a pink stripe. Binding is each of the pink prints in the quilt. I pieced the top in October, but just quilted it last week when I finally got a chance to get it done.

SCRAP BUSTER

Thanks for your feedback yesterday. I appreciate your perspective.

I changed it a bit so it has more dark value fabrics in it. I removed a bunch of pastel blocks. I could change a few more blocks if you think I need to. There a still a few "poofy" fabrics in it, but not many. How do you feel about it now? Is it masculine enough for a 27 yr old guy? I want it to be cheerful. It will be assembled with grey between the blocks. Feedback please.

Stash Buster

So, this is the beginning of a Stash Buster quilt. I need feedback. Is it okay for a 27 yr old guy, or is it too feminine? Is the fabric mix okay for a guy? I gotta say this was a really fun exercise, and it didn't even make a dent in my stash. This was so much fun, I'm gonna have to make another one. I'm going to put it together with solid grey between blocks, so it will expand in size, but will basically be a twin size when finished.

Printemps

Latest finished quilt. Love it! It has to be my favorite so far. Love all the fabrics. Very spring/summer. Thus the title. It has pink flannel on the back so it is a cuddle quilt for TV/relaxing. It is about 78x80. The pattern is based somewhat loosely on "Fresh and Dreamy" from McCall's June/July 2010 issue of Quick Quilts.

Bloggers' Quilt Festival

This is my "Capri" quilt that I'm adding to Bloggers' Quilt Festival.

  It reminds me of the Mediterranean.  I love each of the fabrics and was trying to decide what to do with them when I stumbled upon Valori Well's free Olive Rose pattern (found here: http://www.valoriwells.com/downloads/OliveRoseFreePatt-Web.pdf ).  I really enjoyed making this quick quilt.  It's a favorite, although I recognize not terribly technically challenging. I quilted it on a long arm.  Really enjoyed doing that too.  Love free-motion machine quilting.

The backing is the big Valori Wells blue rose. My fabric mix includes some Amy Butler and Kaffe Fassett fabrics.

My friends always ask me who I am making each quilt for. My response to this one is "ME!" I can't part with this one. It's just too "me", and too fun. I use it while curled up on the couch with a book or while watching T.V.
