Raspberries!

I began playing with some leftover fabrics from a quilt I made in 2011, Easy Peasy. Here's what I came up with - such fun!!

 There were lots of 7.5" x 4" rectangles left from my previous cutting so I just kept making more that size, added some solid white and I had a quilt!

I used almost every single piece that was left with the back - less than a fat quarter of fabric was left for the scrap bin!

Black & White Quilts

I finished up the Black and White BOM for 2010 recently. Here is a picture of it on a bed.

 And a close up.

 This is another black and white quilt I made several years ago. I want to show how some of the black and whites have faded. 

 These were all quilt shop quality fabrics.

Most often I have had the quilt turned over so it would not get too much sun and the blinds closed as it is in a guest room but even so, a good bit of fading. I'll just say it gives it character!!

Here is another black and white quilt for a great nephew to be born very soon. When I asked for the colors and theme of the baby's room, I was told told black and white fabrics, tee pees, arrows and swiss crosses, so this is what I came up with. A little traditional in layout . . .

 This is a little closer up with the backing showing

and this is really close up. I used EQ7 to make my pattern and quilt layout. 

Happy Fourth of July!!
