second top for the Downy Quilts for Kids

I finished quilting and binding my first quilt for this cause today, and then dug in my stash and cut more pieces and put together a second top. The dogs one is the one that's totally done and the multi-colored, wild one is the top only.

Downy Quilt for Kids

I ordered a kit from Downy and made up the top this afternoon. It's actually a little brighter than the picture shows.

Everything was cut very precisely, so it was a quick and easy project.

I still need to get the label on and put it on the longarm.

I'm way behind on posting photos here, and will work on that.

Brian's quilt

Annette made this quilt for her son, Brian, using a layer cake pack and its' instructions. I quilted it on Hoot with tan/gold thread, using Annette's favorite panto - Primrose Swirl.

Disappearing Nine Patch

Annette made this quilt for a granddaughter's wedding gift. Her backing is a soldi pale gold/tan color and showed the quilting beautifully. She and I had taken a class at the Quilter's Bee on backings, so she added some back art. I quilted it on Hoot for her, using the Primrose Swirl pattern.

Disappearing None Patch.

Chickens!

I started chickens a long time ago, then I did the chicks. The fence is a pattern from quilterscache.com It's 31" square and was handquilted before I purchased Hoot. It was donated to Sojourner Center to be used as some kid's drag around quilt.

Autumn Splendor

45 X 60", this is a stash buster quilt. Houses were extras from a Habitat for Humanity quilt, and the leaves were extras from a leaf swap. That gaudy border was leftovers from the sashing for the Flaming aMatches quilt I made. I free motion quilted it on Hoot and donated it to UMOM.

Christmas Triangles

This 56 X 71" quilt was quilted by Ellen on Hoot, using a large meander. It was donated to UMOM.

Alphabets, Truck, trains, and bears

The trucks and trains quilt is yet another put together at the charity quilt sew day at my house. It measures 45 X 47" and was freemotion quilted by Cathy on Hoot.

The red bears quilt is the same fabric front and back. It was a slightly heavier fabric than I usually use, and it was languishing, so I made it into a cahrity quilt. It measures 60 X 66" and was donated to Sojourner Center.

Bears and alphabets is 36 X 60". It was donated by Denise and went to UMOM.

Rail fence, Blue Daisies and pink bordered quilts

8 months since I've been here

Well, I've been busy, what can I say?? Ray had a couple back surgeries and I started a new job - three months only per year. I have gotten a lot of quilts quited on Hoot.

Here's a purple Yellow Brick Road which was donated. Cathy quilted it on Hoot and Ellen did the fancy stitch binding on her machine. This quilt was donated to Sojourner Center and measures 40 X 45".

The next one is four sets of pillow panels. These qilts were put together at a sew day at my house in April 2008. (I'm only a little late getting them published, huh?) The quilt measures 41 X 65" and was donated to UMOM.

Quilt by Dianna

One of my California granddaughters, Dianna, went thru my stash on the third day of their visit, pulling fabrics, and we put this D9P quilt together in three or four days. There are four other non-D9P blocks in there from quilterscache.com . Those blocks are from the Magic Box pattern. Dianna wants another border, echoing the one around the medallion, and I need to get to the LQS for the fabric, then can get on Hoot for her.
