Reminds me of Charlie Brown! More half square triangle practice. And I quilted it myself! :shock: :shock: :shock: I also learned how to miter my binding strips on this one.
It really is square. My camera skills lack... [ATTACH=CONFIG]7283[/ATTACH] Before I ironed it! [ATTACH=CONFIG]8706[/ATTACH] Backing [ATTACH=CONFIG]66732[/ATTACH] |
Wowzers!!! Looks awesome Chele! :) You be cooking with gas now girlfriend! :)
|
Very cute. Your binding looks great. It does make you think of Charlie Brown! I love those colors.
|
Very, VERY attractive. And, very, very nice work.
|
Wow, your workmanship is great! Cheery quilt! Nice job.
|
I love Charlie Brown, and I love your quilt. Your color schemes you pick always amaze me. They are so wild and look awesome together. You have an eye for color.
|
Chele its just tooo cute!!! You're so good at this, and you said you couldn't quilt!!! I love your little Charlie Brown quilt :thumbup:
|
That is a cute idea for a baby quilt! I may have to steal that one! LOL
|
Chele, you did a great job!
|
A great happy quilt. Love your fabrics/colors.
|
This is beautiful. I always love quilts with lots of white in them! Makes your colors really pop.
|
I doubt I would have thought Charlie Brown, but you're right! :D It sure is pretty!
|
It's a beauty!
|
great job! pretty!
|
So cute! And btw, my binding still does not look that good. Great Job!
|
Awesome chele!!!
|
So cute & colorful. I like your quilting too.
|
That looks so good! I love the backing fabric! No one can call you a rookie anymore! You are a pro!
|
Chele:
I love, love, love it! I love your color choices, and the white really does look gorgeous with all those nice bright colors. Like someone else said, I may have to steal this one. One like it is on my "To Do" list. I love taking the quilts off the "to do" list and putting them on the "Tah Dah" list. :lol: Good work, thanks for sharing. Your quilting looks terrific, too. |
Woohoo Chele! You are really cranking them out now, aren't you? I love the zigzag pattern - gotta love those half-square triangles! I think HSTs are my favorite design elements - you can finesse them into doing so much for you.... :mrgreen:
|
Great to see you back sewing.....luckly little wee one to get this quilt. As always your work is stunning.
|
Very cute Chele!

I love your colors. I recently made two zigzag quilts using up purple flannel scraps. They are really quick! Sara
The colors on this photo turned out terrible. But it was a cute quilt. (I already sold it). I used crows foot for the quilting. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6536[/ATTACH] This one is ready to quilt. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6543[/ATTACH] I simply used 8 inch blocks, cut them in half, and sewed 'em up. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6637[/ATTACH] |
Great job! I like it.

I live in rural southern utah. I'm an RN at the hospital and they have a gift shop there. I can put things in the gift shop for $2 commission, and the rest is mine. I can choose my own prices. I have been given lots of flannel scraps and really watch my prices on backings, etc. I buy batting in bulk rolls (Oklee quilting supply in MN). So you can see my expenses are pretty low. I sell as many as I put there. They have lots of ladies that make two pieces of fabric with yarn ties, and they sell for $30. So put my price at $45 and they never last long! My baby quilts are usually approx 40-42 X 52-54". I know that I could get more $$ in a larger market, but actually I make them because I enjoy it. I want to use up all the flannel first, before making twin size. BUT, co workers and friends keep giving me more scraps! It's a great way to try out a pattern that I like. After a crib quilt I can see if I like it enough to make one larger or not. Sara

Chele,
Your quilt does remind one of Charlie Brown doesn't it? I love it. Another Chele creation that I am going to have to copy! Slow down girl. I can't keep up with you! :lol: |

Thank you so much for your imput. I have been doing a local Strawberry Festival for the past 2 years and sell a lot of new claw-machine toys a very low prices. (hubby is an addict and we get some really nice, big toys) I've been taking miscellanious things also. I don't make too much over the table price but it weeds out my stock of toys! :lol: And the music and food are terrific. I have been thinking of taking some books that I've read this year also. I just thought that I might take some quilts with me and if I sell them OK if not thats OK too. :D |
How do I get a pattern? Have new twin grandaughters and would love to make this. It's beautiful.
|
Coconuts, I hope you wanted my pattern! This thread kind of took a different turn! Anyway, congrats on your twins!
I got the pattern from the wonderful site below. They also have a new book out "Last-Minute Patchwork + Quilted Gifts." It's awesome! http://www.purlbee.com/ |
