Sandy’s Baby Buffalo Plaid

Are you looking for a simple baby quilt??? This is our go to quilt for baby boys…in fact this is for one of my cousin’s baby boy.

My mom cut the strips at 4” for some strip piecing. It makes a simple quilt like this, even more simple. If that’s possible. The fabrics were from her online fabric shop Sisters and Quilters.

I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles.

I was going to use my Squared design initially, but then decided last minute to use my new Point quilting design, and it turned out so great!!! Both designs are available in my shop.

My cousin…the dad of this cute baby boy…love going up in the mountains, and I think he’ll enjoy the quilty texture.

Aren’t those fabrics so fun?!?! They are perfect for creating the buffalo plaid look.

Have you made one or many buffalo plaid quilts?

Thanks for stopping by!! Happy quilting, leisha.

June’s Florence Flamingo Quilt

Have you ever seen a Florence Flamingo quilt that you didn’t love??? I haven’t.

June made this Florence Flamingo quilt, a pattern by Elizabeth Hartman, and she did a beautiful job.

The background fabric is a peachy tan color, which is perfect behind all the pops of colors.

June chose Tahitian Pearl, which is one of Patricia Ritter and my panto designs, for the quilting. Tahitian Pearl is available at Urban Elementz. I love the soft swirls and circles that dance across the quilt.

I used a cream Omni thread from Superior Threads and my favorite 8020 comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles.

Which flamingo is your favorite? Mine is probably the hot pink one in the center on the top row.

Do you have some quilts that you’d like to have quilted? Check out my schedule and sign up for a day! I’d love to quilt for you. Happy quilting!! Leisha

Alisha’s simple wedding quilt

Sometimes we can make quilts that are so simple, yet cool at the same time.

I served in the young women’s organization in my congregation for 4.5 years…and I miss it. Those girls who were 12 and 13 when I started are now graduated from high school and doing wonderful things. One of them recently got married. One of the leaders of the women’s organization in the same congregation, called me recently asking if I could give them some tips about tying a quilt for her. I’ve tied a couple quilts, but I obviously prefer machine quilting. I offered to quilt some fabric instead, and then the women to sit together and bind instead of tie. We found this fun Moda modern background paper fabric, made a couple of horizontal seams and then I quilted it.

I used my Domestic Stitches - Triangles quilting design to quilt it, which is available in my shop. I love how the design looks on this simple modern dashed fabric.

Because there was enough backing, and also to give it a little pop of color…yep, I’m going to call grey a color, it was bound with the backing fabric.

I used natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 comfort blend batting from Winline Textiles.

Don’t you think those fabrics are so great together?!?! I do!

This quilty texture is simple, but makes my heart happy.
