and more quilting
This is the 2nd baby quilt for Libby (the top picture is the first one)
the patterns are from Rebecca Silbaugh her blog is here.
you can find the patterns for the Alphabet Stitchery's here. I took the pictures on the deck. The sun is coming through the bare tree branches....but it's the SUN!!!
woo-hoo.
Rebecca and her mom did a trunk show/lecture at our guild a few months back and we each bought 2 of the patterns. Libby has hers made --they are going to be gifted to newborn twins.
They are just too adorable. The first one pictured at the top of post is 'Noah's Ark'
the 2nd is the 'Jungle Animals'. Libby said the stitchery one the Noah's Ark one took a bit more time but the Jungle one stitched up very fast.
I was most surprised when she told me she bought the fabric at JoAnn's! It's really, really nice. It was a bundle they had.
I'm almost done piecing the X blocks. The blocks on the right are this months guild BOM. I like making the little 6 inch blocks more than the 12 inch ones, they're just fun! I should take down that darn asterisk block.
And here's my latest treasure made by my dad!
It's a side table with glass (plexi-glass for safety) on the front and sides and a hinged top.
I LOVE it. And have asked for a matching one for the other side of the sofa.
Filling it will be no problem!
Of course now I think I need new lamps....
