Rocket Man


This is the first quilt I made for my new son.

I loved the outerspace novelty fabric, and have

been waiting for something to use it on. I had fun

making this quilt, it went together very quickly.

Driven By Music


This is a quilt I made for my little sister.
She has "Driven By Music" tattooed across
her back, so I thought this was appropriate.
It was a present for her 26th birthday.

Alphabet Quilt


I finally got around to finishing up some quilts. Here is the alphabet quilt I worked so long on. I'm pretty happy with it and the kids like to point out all the different things on the quilt.

Coming Soon...

I have been busy making new quilts, just haven't had a chance to take pictures or blog in a while, for a good reason! We added a new blessing to the family over Christmas. Our son Barrett was born on December 20th. I haven't slept since ;)



As soon as I get a chance, I will be adding new pics to the blog. Hope everyone else out there is doing well.

Ani's 100 Good Wishes Quilt, Finally

It took a while, but I finally got Ani's OHQWQ done. I think it turned out pretty nice. I especially appreciate all the love and time that friends and family put into selecting all the fabrics and sending us good wishes. I'm sure it is something that Ani will cherish forever. Thanks again everyone!

Panda Quilt


This is the first quilt I have had a chance to work on since returning from China. I had bought a really cute, really cheap panda quilt in China and promptly destroyed it in the washing machine when I got home...so, I decided to make a new one. I would have taken about a day to finish, but it is really hard to find quilting time with three little monkeys running around here ;) I also decided to try out my first real binding on this quilt. I usually just get the pre-packaged binding and straight stitch it on. This time, I actually cut my own binding and sewed it on the right way, hand stitching it to the back. That part took nearly as long as the rest of the quilt. I have to figure out how to use the blind stitch option on my sewing machine! Anyway, enjoy.
