Lots of happy quilts

Thank you all for the lovely comments and for all of you that mentioned that you missed my blog posts. I have not been keeping up with my blog during this busy summer and I want too share all of the beautiful quilts I have worked on. There are so many happy quilts I made and quilted, however I unfortunately lost some of the pictures when I replaced my phone. I know I should always back up my pictures, but I didn't and regret it. :(

I quilted this beautiful pinwheel quilt for Michelle. The little prairie points on the border are such a happy touch.

The next two cute quilts were pieced by Caroline. I would like to eat a fresh strawberry just from looking at the cute strawberry blocks.

The soft yellow backing shows off the quilting pattern "Cafe du Monde" so well.

I quilted the blue and white quilt with " Bubbles" one of my favorite quilting pantos.

Jana loves making flying geese quilts. This is just one of the flying geese quilts I quilted for her. One of these days I am going to make a flying geese quilt myself. It is on my very, very long project to-do list.

I quilted this extremely cute 1930's reproduction quilt for Julie. It will make a nice baby quilt for a precious expected newborn girl.

I absolutely adore 1930's reproduction fabrics. And guess what else is on my project to-do list? This fun yet sophisticated dog pattern. 

My oldest daughter especially appreciates this quilt pattern because she recently received this little guy for her birthday. His name is Rolo, a nine week old Boston Terrier.

 His ears are finally beginning to perk up. Such a cutie!

Here is another beautiful flying geese I quilted for Jana. I love the blue, white, and a little touch of yellow color scheme.

And last but not least, Sally has made a pink and brown charm square quilt. I find it so calming and relaxing to look at, especially the bunny fabric square.

I hope everyone is having a fantastic summer of quilting!

Spring quilts and decorating

 I absolutely love the Spring season. After this long winter season, it is wonderful to make a few quilts in soft pastels and setting out a few bunnies for Easter. I found these unfinished blocks, but have no idea where I put the pattern.

 I sewed the blocks together and added a few orphan tulip blocks.

 I quilted the quilt with a flowery panto.

A border in pink and green.

I finished the quilting on the scrappy 5" block quilt. It will look so nice on my bed. Can't wait to get the binding done.

 A wonderful blogging friend mailed me a surprise bag of scraps. Some of the scraps went into this String quilt. Most of her string fabric went into another String quilt for my daughter. I will share that next time. It is so nice to receive and share scraps with other quilters.

 I quilted this beautiful scrappy Bow Tie quilt for Julie.  It is such a pretty quilt in soft spring colors.

 I can see myself in the near future making a pastel Bow Tie quilt with a pretty scrappy border.

 A few bunnies on the mantel. 

 More spring decorations - a frog and a green egg.

  Two more quilts in spring colors on display.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I wishing you all a happy spring season.

Finished Charm Quilt

 Another small Charm quilt is washed and crinkled. I love making smaller quilts to decorate my home. I turned this area behind the staircase into a small office area. My son spray painted an old mirror with black chalkboard paint. My daughter said it looks like a flat screen TV.

 This desk was a natural wood color before I painted it white.

  I am using spraypaint with a primer.  The black chair is going to be painted in the coral color.
I have a helper named Max.

The quilt look nice with the newly painted coral chair, two metal boxes, and the blue fabric lampshade.

 I sewed the binding on the the reproduction 1930's quilt.

 A lot of hand sewing is left to do because this is a king size quilt.

 

I am making more yo-yos. It is fun to do while watching TV.

Hope you all have a wonderful and relaxing weekend!

Hapy Quilting,
