Quilts I've this year so far
The first two are fairy quilts for our DGGD's, ages 9 & 7.
The next 4 are baby quilts. Did an embroidered animal in the centers, then just added borders to get the size needed, except the owl one, did nine squares for that one.
The 7th pic still needs the borders, this one will be king size, spring/summer quilt, for DH & I.
The 8th was a wedding gift given yesterday, forgot to take pics of it quilted. Just did a curvy stitch down the seams, once washed it looked really good.
And finally the last two pics. My step-son asked for a patriotic quilt and this is what I came up with. The panel in the center of the back was very crooked. So, I didn't use in the top, then decided to go for it and used it for the back, just adding borders. When it was long arm quilted, it straightened it right out. So now its kind of a reversible quilt.
Now back to making hand bags!

They are all amazing. If you don't mind telling, I'd like to know the size of the blocks in the 8th quilt down from the top? I'd love to give this a try. I think it shows off fabric you don't want to cut too small, but still it is interesting with the thin line of white/bkground. Many thanks.
