i've done several of these. it's a quick quilt to make for a gift you need in 2 days. the fabrics are remmanents from a nurse uniform supply factory in ala. hope you like them.

very nice!

They look great. They sure don't look all that quick.

Love them, especially the first one!

Very nice!

that would tsake me forever! Pretty!!

Very nice!! I really like the first quilt!

Those are really nice!

If the fabric is what they make scrubs out of, it'll wear forever :D
Nice job..
I really like the green one

Very nice. :thumbup:

TWO days?? Ha, this probably would take me months & months. What is this pattern name? I'm an beginner so far i have done a block called Shoo fly and rail fence, so i am ready to move on to an bigger project. I love your pattern and color too.

4 patch? How did u know where to place the colors to come out this way? Could I have this pattern? I am learning to quilt as u can see from my previous email about the blocks that i've done so far. Thanks

Very nice :-P

could i have name & instructions for this? I am desperate for this as u can see from recent postings :mrgreen: :lol:

Those are really nice. Great pattern and colors on them.
I'd like to make myself one. Thanks for sharing :thumbup:

Great Job :thumbup: How do you get the fabric from the scrub place ? Can't believe you get them together so fast :shock: :mrgreen:

Hi nwm 50 - I think this would work with any size blocks. Looks like this one may have 6" squares.
Just pick two contrasting fabrics, a dark and a light. You will cut an equal number of equal size squares from each fabric.
Then lay them out so that you have a four patch unit (4 pieces of fabric) with the darker colors on opposite corners of the lighter colors. Sew the top two in your foursquare together. Sew your bottom two together. Then sew the two rectangles together. This makes one block. You can make as many blocks as you need.
I hope this is not too confusing.
;) :D

To JennyPenny: I think that I understand what you're saying but i will try this weekend. Thanks for helping me out, so i lay them out as 1 block of 4 peices and then attached the next block alongside of it and so on, until the next row and so on as the 1st row?? Duh..hope i didn't confuse u? :roll:

nice work on the quilts

I had to look at the pattern closely to see how you made up the 4 patch blocks. Very nice.

Beautiful quilts, good job!!! :D:D:D

very pretty

the scrubs place advertises in the back of quilting magazines. my mom noticed the ad, got some, then i did. their name is HICE, i haven't ordered any in about 4 yrs, because i just really overdid it for a while. the matarial was so pretty. 1-800-752-4927 is phone #. at the time it was $25 for a huge box. like a foot and half square, and 4 ft tall. plus shipping by ups. it was $25 to michigan.
here's another one----each side of the box was 1 1/2 foot.+the box was 4 ft. long.

yes, they do. the girls just wash and wash them. just a tiny bit of fading after years. it's a poly/cotton blend, but feels like cotton.

wow another recycled fabric quilt, how cleaver and nice.

I love them. But I know I could never make one in two days. I'm putting together a bunch of 4-patches for my guild quilts right now. Just took a break because it's so boring.
Love your quilts though. Every one is great!

now, we are not going to kid ourselves. it would be a dawn to dusk task for 2 days all day.--with scraps, and cutting and sewing l square at a time. ---- but if you did strip sewing, (eleanor burns method) you know what i mean? then it wouldn't be such long days. and you might even be able to get one done in l long day, if you pushed yourself. a queen, double, or twin.

great quilts

really nice.

you did a great job. both are beautiful. God bless. Penny

Wow, they are all beautiful. I love the blue and white one. Great job on all and thanks for sharing.

Very Nice although it would take me more that a few days
What a beautiful job!

Very pretty.

Like them both but especially the first one. You did a great job there!!

to do this in just 2 days, you have to machine quilt it, i like opposing loops, know what i mean?-- the length of the quilt, then do it again. and I sew the binding on the machine, and zig zag the binding down on the back. if you are real careful, it looks nice on the front also. and i almost always use unbleached 200 count muslin for my backs. i buy the best muslin i can find, usually with a 40% of coupon.

how clever of you. I'm into being green. You made some nice quilts anyone would be happy to have. Good job.

GREEEEEN???????? This ole granny is just trying to stretch her money. my mother was raised during the depression and when she pinched a nickel, it knew it had been pinched. i guess it just rubbed off.

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.
