Ladybug Quilt

 This was all my ladybug quilt pieces mixed together with red. I managed to run some simple quilting lines across it with my Jazz II, but I still need a lot more practice with the machine, so I used my faithful old Babylock Crafter to finish off the binding. It's about 5x5 feet and I've giving it to one of my nieces.





Vintage nine-patch



I had a whole bunch of finished and unfinished quilt blocks that were hand-pieced by my great-great grandmother. I took all the nine-patches and pieces of fabric and made a small quilt, about 2x3 feet. My mom recognized lots of the pieces - she says they were from aprons.

 I made a mini that was very similar to this, but this one is about 2 feet square. I'm saving it for a baby gift at some future time.

Log Cabin Flannel Quilt

First quilt with flannel log cabin squares. This is a lap quilt about 4x5 feet with a gray flowered background. It's a gift for a staff member who's graduating from college. I still have enough pieces left to make more quilts from this one! I just sewed the edges, no quilting. Finished 5-12-22

Mixed brights Hazelwood Stars - pillows

 I used the leftovers from the big quilt to create these pillows - both are matched with the blue backing.
