Modern Zoo Animals Quilt

 

When a friend asked me to make this quilt for her to give as a shower present, I was excited for this opportunity. She wanted something modern with an animal print and minky backing. This was the final result after a couple of sketches and fabric choices.

 

"Hoppy" Valentine's Day!

This year, I decided to skip the traditional paper Valentines and candy for M's class of 18-month to 3-year old toddlers and give them these fun frog water squirters. Hope all of you have a "Hoppy" Valentine's Day too.

PAST PROJECTS: E's Baby Quilt

I am somewhat of a fabric hoarder. I buy lots of fabrics to use "someday". When I found out that my sister-in-law was going to have a little girl, I had the perfect fabric for my niece's quilt stashed away; birds with pink polka-dots. Wanting to incorporate yellow into the design, I found this great traditional, yellow fabric that complimented the bird fabric perfectly.

Baby J's Owl Quilt

This is the first quilt I made this year. It was a gift to my niece for her Baptism. I wanted to design something pink and girlie, but add some bold colors too. This owl fabric, which was found by my 18-month-old son (long story, see below), allowed me to do just that. You will probably notice that the fabrics match what I used in my studio last week. Though they are the same, the quilts that will be available for purchase are slightly different in design than this quilt. I believe, just like snowflakes, no two quilts should exactly be alike.
