Musical Notes Quiltets


 
 Got this pattern and holder in Houston last fall.  I like classical music and thought this  was a good pattern to show that.

We are having rain and lots of it here in North Texas.   Finally having sunshine the last 2 days.  Many roads are still closed.  I feel so sorry for the people who have flooding of their homes and businesses.

Skateboards

I finished the skateboard quilt.  It is in the latest copy of BLOCK magazine. Thanks Debi for the fabric rectangles!!  She gave away bags of over 400 pieces of fabric cut in to 3.5 x 6.5 inches. Since the rectangles were a different size than the ones in the pattern, I had to re-size the other pieces so everything fit together.  Good challenge for my brain!!!!  This one will go to
Project Linus

Quilt of Valor and Farm Girl Vintage both finished!

.
 I made a Quilt of Valor for our friend, Steve, in appreciation of his service during the Vietnam War.  The kit was from Fons and Porter
.This quilt is Farm Girl Vintage from Lori Holt's book by the same name.  Lots of little squares, but fun to do.  This one is now ready to be quilted.


Summer temps are back in North Texas, so glad for the A/C!  But flowers are blooming and the roses are beautiful.

Farm Girl Vintage

Long time no write!  But I have been busy.  Life does get in the way!


Here are 2 rows of Farm Girl Vintage from Lori Holt at Bee in my Bonnet.  I have all the blocks done and ready to sash and set some more!  The book is called Farm Girl Vintage and has lots of fun patterns in it.

Enduring Love Quilt

This is a quilt that I made out of Civil War reproduction fabrics.  It was a kit and fun to do!   Thought this was a better picture than one I showed before.

Quilt of Valor

Here is a quilt that I made for my hubby, who is a Vietnam Veteran.  It's donated through Quilts of Valor, an organization that makes and takes quilts to active service men and women, as well as veterans of all wars.

This was a kit from Fons and Porter.

Charm Quilt

I made this quilt for Project Linus.  It used a charm pack called "Zippity-do-dah!"  Went really fast and was fun to do!
