Service Auction Quilts
Each March our ward does our annual Relief Society Birthday Service Auction. We "auction" services and hand made items that we donate. We had a wonderful array of goodies donated this year, including knitted headbands, gloves, scarf, pretty aprons with dish cloths, homemade bread, a mailing kit, beautiful flower barrettes, a gorgeous bracelet (that I got), an emergency FHE kit, etc. These are a couple of little quilts I made for it. They were snatched up, along with a couple that Sue Mortensen hand quilted from fabrics I gave her.

Jordan's Scrapbuster
The finished product. I over-quilted it, but I learned from the experience. I really like the grey background/sashing though. I hope he likes it, or at least appreciates it. Quilt measures 62x86 and was made December 2010 for Jordan at Christmas.

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.
