Scrappy Quilts

 I have a finished quilt...my sewing theme Bowtie Quilt is all done.
 Scrappy backing.
 Do you like scrappy quilts like I do? I had the opportunity to quilt some of Julie's scrappy tops and would like to share her amazing work. I am so honored to quilt her tops. She is a true quilter and such an inspiration to me.

 I have a Pineapple Blossom quilt on my to do list, but first I have to finish the Disappearing Nine Patch and Hugs and Kisses quilt.
 I used a few leftovers from the Disappearing Nine Patch quilt for the Hugs and Kisses quilt.
Happy Friday,

Circle Quilt and more

 I started this Circle quilt a while ago and finally got it quilted. It is such a simple quilt and I love it. 
 Pink and purple fabric from my stash to frame the circle blocks.
 Scrappy backing.
 Beginning of a scrappy  Disappearing Nine Patch quilt.
 I like to make another Disappearing Four patch quilt, but first I have to get these disappearing nine patches finished.
 Here is another blue, green and yellow Disappearing Nine Patch I am working on.
 I have been quilting beautiful customer tops and like to share a few.

 Pat's Hugs and Kisses quilt.
Cute scrappy backing and label. 
 Sally's Red and Black Moroccan quilt.
The black fabric feels like velvet. 
Happy Quilting until next time,

Bargello Quilt and a few UFO's

 
I have been working on a few UFO's. I started this scrappy Bargello quilt a couple of years ago. I had a few more strips to cut and piece together, but lost interest in finishing the top.
Not only did I finish the piecing, but the quilting too
I started the next few small projects with one yard of cupcake fabric and three coordinating pieces.  I am making four small quilts for my breakfast room/pantry.
This is the first small quilt I made, the pattern is called Top Hat.
 
I used the red dot fabric for the binding.
 
From the leftover 3" Top Hat strips I made a simple Four Patch quilt.
I used 1" peach strips from my stash for the sashings.
 
I am getting close to using up the last few scraps from these four one yard pieces of fabric. The Rail Fence quilt needs two more white borders. I am not sure how I am going to use the Disappearing Four Patch blocks.
The last project I quilted was a simple baby panel.
I love to buy panels for baby quilts. It is so fast to make and it is a cute gift for any Mommy and her baby/toddler.
Hope you all stay warm and happy quilting,
Millie
