Baby Quilt-Shower

This is the quilt I designed for my great grandson...simple...ideas taken from here and there..

Used this wonderful technique to make windmills. There were a lot of fun and I am very pleased with the result. My friend Sherry quilted it for me as my was waiting for repair. Close up of the windmills

Granddaughter, Em...and great granddaughter, Ella who was excited and trying to help. It was suggested to also give her books for the baby and sign them. It was a wonderful idea by her sisters, Rachel and Alllison who hosted the party.

IT'S A BOY!! Her mom, Vickie inspecting the windmills

Alli, 14 who did this wonderful counted cross stitch. Poem about little boys. She is very skilled in knitting, quilting, sewing...it makes a Gram proud!! And Oh, she takes after her Gramp and loves the barn and mucking the horses..(smile!!)

Tacoma Morningstar

Our Tacoma Quilt group has an average of 18-20 gals each meeting. A challenge was put forth by Barb, our President to make a quilt 'Morningstar" found on P&B Textiles website and finished by today, May 5. Fifteen of us met the challenge! It was an exciting day as we measured and had our pictures taken with 'our own' creation as you will see.

Each one so fits their personality. Each one outstanding in color, etc.

We had 1 unable to attend but they have theirs finished also. Here we go..............
