The cute little Teddy Bear Baby Quilt is finished
This is so very cute! I used the Handiquilter Multi Clamshell tool to quilt the 4in clamshells over it. Works every time and looks great on baby quilts.
No change in the numbers, but I made some progress.
I finished stitching Northern Bluebird by Crossed Wing Collection.

It’s stitched on 28 count Wheat Lugana using the called for DMC. The design is 4.5 inches tall.
I also finished the Simply Charming top. No pattern, just me playing with a partial charm pack I bought at the Donation Sale last August.

I added a few fabrics to fill out the blocks, plus sashing fabric. I basted it yesterday but haven’t decided how to quilt it.
I hope to finish it before the next Donation Sale.

I made the top for this quilt in February, using the 6" Bow Tie dies so the blocks are 3" finished. All of the fabrics in the blocks are Kaffe Fassett collective prints, a large variety in the larger piece and in the triangles. I think I would call this exuberant pastel because of the large scale prints which appear darker. It is 34.5" x 45".
The cute print on the back is flannel that I found on sale. The binding is a gray print I found in my stack of grays.

Orange is the colour for June for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge so I dug into my 2.5" squares bin and pulled out all of the orange squares. I cut a few from my orange fat quarter bin to add some variety before making 6 orange hollow nine patch blocks. I am getting quite a stack of these blocks! When I run out of the centre squares, I will put the blocks together to make a quilt.
Say hello to Crisscross!
Wake up to Sunshine
I was in the basement doing laundry and finished up a few other tasks. One was stacking the trays with the 2" x 3.5" rectangles. I store these in a large bin with trays of 2 other size rectangles.
I found this partially sewn project. I could slice and sew the strata and make another section like the first or I could cut it into 2 sections and add stripes to both sides of the sewn section, lining up the fabrics to continue the design. The first option would make one piece 24.5" square. The second option would ... read more
Happy Easter to all who celebrate this holiday! We had brunch with my husband's family yesterday so the rest of the weekend will be quiet. My niece helped me to make a bunny charcuterie board for the brunch yesterday and I managed to get a picture before people started to nibble. I will have to make more of these for other family gatherings.
A little progress was made on the Tilda 16 patch blocks, but the most time yesterday was spent cutting batting and piecing backs for two quilts. I need to cut more batting today while the table is cleaned off.
In case you are wondering, the friend who came over yesterday to choose 2 baby quilts chose these two. My son's friends are becoming grandparents for the first time so I give them one for the baby's house and one for the grandparents' house.
