quilt challenge finish #3

Here is my third finished project for Peg's quilting challenge. Quilted using Chinese Crescents

I also whipped up this panel for my cousin's son who is turning 4 tomorrow and a BIG Cars fan. I used the quilting pattern Inkblot

quilt challenge finish #2

well, except for the binding lol! I got this quilted today(used an old pattern called Turnabout) This is a Carola pattern(once around the block) using a charm square pack and a jelly roll

And check out Peg's blog to see how others are doing on her challenge as well

edited to add, here is the website for Carola's Quilt Shop where I got the quilting pattern and fabric for this quilt Carola's

quick and cute

One pack of charm squares, some quiet time and we have another finish. I used At Water's Edge by Moda and the pattern is This and That

The pattern calls for some appliqued flowers but I decided not to do them. I also did a fourth row of blocks to make it a little wider. edited to add, this quilt measures roughly 16x28

sew a thon night three

I took a break tonight from my Dandelion quilt to work on my Moda Bistro quilt. I started this quilt in June, got the blocks finished than put it away. The pattern called for a piano key border made from the leftover jelly roll strips. I wasn't too fond of the idea so thought I would pick up some yardage of my favorite print from this line. That was when i discovered that this line isn't available until September!


After tossing around the idea of a wide black border, a skinny black border, I've opted for no border at all. I also *created* two extra charm squares by sewing a jelly strip together to make an even amount of blocks so the quilt would be more square.

This is my second finish for Peg's 5 in July Challenge as well.
Don't forget to see how Cindy is doing with her quilt

yay for me!

Peg sent me this badge since I have finished my first quilt for her July challenge. Thanx Peg!

quilt tuesday

My first complete for Peg's Quilt Challenege Chaos quilting pattern used.

Happy Canada day!

i had so hoped

that I could finish my Bistro quilt for the quilt challenge, but it won't happen. I went to buy some fabric for the borders and this Moda line isn't available for sale until Fall!(except for charm squares and jelly rolls that is) The pattern calls for a piano key border using the remaining jelly roll strips but I want a solid border *sigh*

But now I can get started on B's quilt for his birthday(which is next week lol!!)

the 90 minute quilt

and first one in the quilting challenge. In all honesty, this quilt was soooooo simple, it shouldn't even count! I literally pieced it in 90minutes(maybe even less) The blocks were all previously cut. A dear cousin is turning 40 this weekend and loves to nap-what could be more perfect than a snuggly flannel quilt?

a quilting challenge

Peg at Happy in Quilting has issued the challenge of 5 quilt tops(flimsies) to be completed by July 31st(of this year lol!!) I signed up, how about you?
