Nursery Quilt

This is yet another baby quilt.  I made this to play with some techniques I'm learning and use of up some odds-n-ends of fabric from other projects.  I hate to waste fabric!
It is machine pieced and the bear shapes are machine applique.  The back is red flannel so it'll be snuggly (is that really a word?).   I gave this to our church nursery because I am a firm believer that quilts are to be used.

**update** For some reason the photo has disappeared... have to see if I can dig up another copy.

Another Quilt Ministry Quilt

This is another one from our Ladies Quilt Ministry at our church - Riverside Christian.  Aren't the cats just adorable?  Of course if you are not a cat person... well... tough! :-)

Quilt Ministry Project

Our church has a quilt ministry. We get together a few times each month to sew quilts for all new babies in our congregation. We just had the pleasure of finishing (and giving) a quilt that is one of my favorites so far.

Isn't it pretty?  The blues and yellow are so cheerful and fun!  It is a bit tough to see, but the woman who did our lovely machine quilting added boats & waves quilted into the plain white blocks.  This particular quilt was a gift for our Pastor's soon-to-be born newest grandson. 

Apron Inspiration - cross post

This is a cross-post from my other blog.
Awhile back I was noodling around at Like A Warm Cup of Coffee and she was doing an apron give away from Flirty Aprons.  You have to check them out - they are sooooo cute!
I did not win the freebie, but was inspired to dig out a pattern I had bought back before Christmas to make my own!  So when my Mom came up for a visit on Saturday, we hit the fabric store and I splurged and bought some GORGEOUS Legacy quilting fabric to make myself a pretty apron.

My daughter J has been hanging around with me in my sewing area and says I will be stylin' when I make dinner in this beautiful creation! 

And one of the side benefits is that I love to sew anyway and with sales, coupons, & discounts - my apron cost $12.50 to make.

One of my favorites

This is one of my favorite projects.  It is called "Carpenter's Wheel" and I made this as a wall-hanging for my parents.  It now hangs in their kitchen.  It is machine pieced and hand quilted.
