Quilt's Of The Past

This was for a special boy. A nephew of my heart. I started making a quilt for his big brother and decided that I needed to go ahead and do his too. I'd love to show you the quilt I made for his brother but I've lost the pictures somewhere.

 

I used my "Go" cutter to make the tumblers. Random was the plan for this layout. 

I quilted a single line down the edge of the tumblers and finished it off with a scrappy binding which I love more than I thought I would.

I remembered to take the time to tag both quilts. Mostly because Jessica helped me get these done. She helped A LOT. 

I 

I used all Kaufman Kona Cottons for the front and their "spot on" wide quilt backing to finish off the back.
Both boys love their quilts and that makes me so happy.

What I did today

Of course it still needs to be quilted and bound. I sketched it out on Monday, bought the fabrics on Friday, drew the plan Friday night and finished the top today. It 36 x 48. Just big enough to get this idea out of my head and into fabric. It is all Kona cottons. As usual I can't remember the actual color names.

I'm not having much luck with the long arm lately so who knows when it will be truly finished.

I had to get this out of my head....

I was cutting some fabric Wednesday and this quilt popped into my head. I was hoping to have it completed but didn't have anything for backing

and I just couldn't wait to show you.

I used Fresh Paint by Marcus Fabrics and Kona solids. The white fabric is some from my stash.

What do you think?
