Block of the Month 2012

These are my first 2 blocks for January 2012.  We will end up with 2 blocks per month for a total of 20 blocks by the end I think the last 2 months will be for putting it all together and quilting the finished top.  This should be lots of fun.

Ashtyn,s First Birthday Doll

This was so much fun to make.  The doll was made in the hoop which was so easy to do and fun.  I then made her outfit using my own pattern....I just think she came out so cute.  This will be for my youngest granddaughters first birthday which is January 20th 2012.

My Sisters Log Cabin Quilt

Wow finally finished this quilt Christmas of 2011.  Again this was waiting to be quilted for 2 years....boy I have already finished 2 quilts using my new set-up.  For this quilt I used the pattern called cur lies, my sister said it was perfect.  She has a full sized bed so I made this one 75 x 97 she wanted it to hang more on the top and bottom.  She is now making pillows and pillow shams to go with it.  I am so glad she loved it.

Kevin's Log Cabin Quilt

Wow this finally got finished.  I started this quilt 2 Christmases ago.  Never thought I'd get it done,but I am so pleased how it turned out.  I was made for my oldest son for Christmas this year.  The hard part of this quilt was first of all the size is 96 x 96 so it was pretty big.  I have a great set-up now using my Bernina 830 with the Bernina frame and Quilt Motion which is made by QuiltCad which I truly love.  On this quilt I used the Hibicus Pattern and my son seemed to really love it.

Aprons For Christmas 2011


The green apron with a coffee theme is the apron I made for my daughter-in-law for Christmas 2011.  The pink one has cupcakes and the yoke has sprinkles this one I made for my sister for Christmas.  The pattern was so cute there are no ties or velcro required I just fell in love with the pattern.  I am really not an apron person but I am now going to make myself one because I loved it so much.
