Finished this- how spooky is that




Here is the wall hanging top I finished. I love the how it turned out. I found great deals on the Fabric. The fun part was designing and sketching it out, then finding the fabric. I am not the best at the applique . I have a new product to try out, I bought a Fab U Motion for stippling. I had so much fun making this, I just love pumkins. I will be hanging this in my office at work. I will be quilting it tonight.

OK so I am a newbie....at blogging




I started this quilt(Brown & Pink) for my grand daughters, Kimberly's 1st birthday, I finished it on her birthday. I found the pattern on line on a blog by Crazy Mom Quilts and thought it would be easy, well trial and error aside, It turned out pretty darn cute. Kimberly will love it one day.

So the next quilt(Butterfly Fling & Bright colors)I made for my older grand daughter, Kirsten's, 3rd birthday, I improvised and enlarged the pattern by adding 6" strips to the side. I thought well I am on a roll. Ok, I am not and I probably will not make another quilt like this for a while.
