Baby Quilt




What do you do on a really hot day in Maine when the temp is in the high 90's and high humidity. You stay where the AC is and head for the quilt studio. I have just organized everything changing some things around and what a joy to sew now. I found these 5" blocks and decided to just sew them together and then it took off from there. You will notice the inside borders are not the same...I used what I call 'funky' material and also backed it with that. It is really cuter than it is in photo...babies love 'bright'. Feels good when I finish a project.

Pillow Cases for J & J quilts

I have been very busy re-doing my quilt studio...took out a rug and couch...purchased a 5 shelf bookcase/plastic bins and I finally have everything in place. Amazing what I found .....lots of unfinished projects. It has been a great experience..now I know what 'I have'. There are enough projects to last me the rest of my life. Now I am ready to get going.
These are my finished pillow cases to go with the quilts for the twins, Josh and Jake....their birthdays are Sept. 1.
