Four To Go! One To Stay!

 This one is Warm Wishes Froggies.  Warm Wishes was a pattern put out by Quiltmaker magazine and is still on their website after several years.  It was made especially for  Project Linus.  I've made lots of these, as they are fun to do.
Using the Accuquilt Cutter GO! for the Drunkard's Path pieces made the cutting so easy and then piecing it together went well because all the pieces were accurately cut.  What a time saver that machine is!  I loved this pattern when I first saw it and knew I had to make it.  It is in Quilt
 magazine April/May2013.  
 Audra's Iris Garden is the line of fabric for this Yellow Brick Road and I have decided to take it  for my own use.  It's just the right size to curl up in to watch TV and surf the internet.  Thanks Debi for the gift of this fabric!
There are two of these airport panels.  Lots of things to see at the airport and I can just see someone playing with the planes on the runway or taxiing up to the terminal!

Maynard has a beautiful plaid quilt on the machine (Handiquilter Fusion 24) for quilting tonight.  It's wonderful to see all the quilts coming in to be quilted.  Each one is beautiful in its' own way.  Thanks to all our good customers!

Let quilting help you make someone smile!

Three IS the Number!











Three more quilts for Project Linus! The first one I called "Sunbursts." I don't know the real name of the block. It is a pattern from the Accuquilt GO! pattern book. I cut everything on the Accuquilt GO! Cutter except the strips for the 2 sashings. It cuts really nice half square triangles---even cuts off the "dog-ears" which I find very helpful when sewing them together. (Disclaimer: Not a salesperson or affiliated with Accuquilt Go! Company, just like the product, ya-da, ya-da.)



The second picture shows the quilt I named "Blue Red Flowers." Almost all of the fabrics have turquoise in them. The pattern is my old stand-by, Yellow Brick Road. I never get tired of making that pattern. Something to pick up when you have a few minutes and you can get quite a bit done on it.



The third one is a border quilt. It's called "School Buses on Parade." You have to look closely to see the buses, but they are there---all lined up in rows. This is in the M'Liss Hawley book "Fast, Fat Quarter Projects for Baby." This is my challenge book for the year---going to try to do all the quilts in the book by the end of the year, if possible. I'm making a good dent in them!



Hope you are all staying safe from the storms. My heart goes out to all the people who have lost so much.
