Busy in my silence...

February 6, 2014

Sorry the pictures are so cruddy. Way too cold to go out and try to get better ones. =/

My granddaughter, Brooklyn, has a new baby girl cousin, a dear friend (age 6) who is very ill and the ill friend has a baby sister, so I made three quilts for her to give to her cousin and friends....

This one is for the new baby cousin. I used Missouri Star Quilt Company's tutorial Disappearing Pinwheels. The quilt measures 46"x46".


This one is for her sick friend. She has been in the hospital for almost two weeks. She was life flighted twice to two different hospitals. They came very close to losing her. Praise God she is on the mend!! The quilt measures 65"x65". 


This is the back of the quilt....


When I found out Brooklyn's ill friend had a baby sister, I had to make one for her, too. I used much of the same fabric so they would be alike and yet not identical. Two of the blocks were orphan blocks that I was able to make work. =) The one measures 43'x43".


The back is a soft flannel...


I will admit, it was fun to be able to use my new labels. =)

Hope all is well for all of you! 

Until next time....
