24 Hours For Me!

From Friday about 7 pm till Saturday about the same time, I spent time quilting some of the projects I had made. They aren't necessarily going to stay here, but I did make them.

First was the baby boy quilt for a co-workers son who is almost a year old. I'm a bad quilter, I know, but maybe he will appreciate it more, I don't know.

Raindrops panto, which is a free one, Hobbs 80/20 batting and white Omni thread.

Just look at this cute backing I found to give it a kid friendly look:
Second was this Quilts For Kids Sample strip quilt. I determined that 17 3.5" strips makes the right size.

Popcorn panto for this one and the next:
This is just a little NICU quilt with some leftovers:

Kimmy's Brown Bricks

This quilt was made by Kimmy for her adult son. She used many, many browns and tans and most of them are flannel, with a few minkee fabrics here and there.

It's going to be his couch quilt, so she wanted minimal quilting with a large meander. That's an easy one for me. I think this quilt was on and off within 2 hours. Omni Safari thread and a poly batting.

I still plan to make one of these flannel brick quilts with the fabrics I purchased at our guild auction this past May.

Jan's Bricks Quilt

A guild member who has had a multitude of medical problems posted a plea to members to finish a quilt she had started. Lish volunteered to do the piecing, I stepped up to do the quilting, and Sharon will be doing the binding.

The pattern is Bricks and she used lots of nickels from our guild exchanges.

I chose Bountiful Feathers, Lava thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting.I considered using a black batting, but decided not to. I was concerned at how the white fabrics would look.


Here's the pieced backing:
