The kids quilts I started this time last year intending them for Christmas gifts for the nieces and nephews (4 girls and 2 boys). I got 3 of them done in time in between a trip to HI before hubby deployed and an emergency trip to MO to visit my stepfather before he passed away from lung cancer. Here are pics of the 3 I just finished handsewing the binding to and a fun little wall hanging I did to take a break from the bigger projects. It's my first time doing dresdens!

Thank you Sue! I think it was the fastest deployement due to so much going on and he was gone from Aug-June!

Buenie, that is my favorite as well! I was tempted to keep it for myself.

A very busy schedule. They say that busy hands get things done.....so true! These are lovely quilts and I sure the children will love them immensely.

My thanks to your husband for his service to our country and for your support. I know it is rough on you. As the mother of one son and 3 grandsons serving in the army, I know how it can keep a family on edge.

Sorry for the loss of your stepfather.

Beautiful job on all of these projects. I just love the colors and patterns on Abby's quilt.

Kat, all three are actually the Disappearing 9 Patch. Tyler's and Emmy's were made using Moda Charm packs I purchased from Charmpacksplus and Abby's I had the fabric in my stash ( I almost cried using it but that's what a stash is for right?!).

Thank you, ladypetite!

I thought that's what it was. I didn't even realize the other two were done using that method until you said it!!! LOL! I might have to give this a whirl. Thank you for sharing your great work!!!
