Some finishes this last couple weeks...

This is what I've been up to lately...sometimes just have to get away from "quilting"...so I play with clothes decorating. They started out as regular sweatshirts & I make them into sweatshirt jackets with zippers (mostly) & occasionally buttons. The breast cancer quilts are for the craftshow booth & I just charge for the actual materials. I make 2 or 3 every Oct. The teddy quilt is a donation for the pregnancy center through the quilt guild I belong to. Thanks for looking...:)

Great jackets! All of the quilts are beautiful. The pink and white quilt looks so comforting. And -- now I've got an idea of what to do with the little piece of the teddy bear fabric that is left in my stash. I honor you for being such a charitable person.

Great sweatshirts and quilts. I especially love the "Witchy Woman", as many days that could be me. I really like the unusual setting in the last quilt.

They are just fabric I put a light fusible on the back & fussy cut...added other fabric & stitched to the sweatshirts. The fabric is older fabric I've had just hanging around. Good use for it! :)

The pattern for that quilt is on the Moda site...called "cabbages & roses picnic quilt" by Angela Walters. I am adding it to my "go to" pattern pile as it is so easy to do. I have some "go to" patterns that are used for the donation quilts I make. I love doing them!

sewingsuz 10-05-2013 03:53 PM

Great job, I like the idea of the sweat shirt jackets. So many of the pull over kind are not worn anymore. I love the teddy quilt too!

VickiM 10-05-2013 04:00 PM

Thanks for all the nice comments...I just love doing this stuff! "Karen" caused the craftshow to be cancelled so they will be used for the next one coming up in 2 weeks. So, I'm spending this weekend making a QOV quilttop as the call has gone out to our guild to help get 100 quilts for Dec. Hopefully I can get 3 or 4 tops done & turn them over to someone else to quilt & bind as I just don't have the time to do that before they will be due. The one I'm working on today is "BQ" by Debbie Bowles. It's one of my "go to" patterns & I can make any size quilt with it. And it's quick & easy!:thumbup:
