This is called Coming Home by Sarah Fielke.  Took 2 1/2 months.  It was really fun to make........as I always say.  The pattern had pieces to trace instead of measurements to cut multiples so I had trouble lining them up.  Not the usual way to put together a quilt.  Also, it weighs a lot and was a bit difficult to move around especially on the longarm but I'm happy with how it looks now.  Want to do smaller quilts again.  

 

Hand applique projects from My Enchanted Garden book by Gretchen Gibbons.

This block is called Happy Bouquet

This block is called Fancy Flowers.

This block is called Bountiful Tree.

Love to have hand applique projects to work on while watching shows.  Also nice to do a smaller project.

 

 Pattern.........In The Flock by Suzy Quilts.  Daughter chose this linen fabric and pattern.  Baby quilt gift for a friend.  Subtle........sophisticated.  Photo, as usual, does not do it justice.  

 Daughter Jessi asked me to make this quilty star pattern ..........a gift for friends. She chose the fabrics.  Very bright and happy.

 

This pattern is called mini flower power.  English paper piecing which is super fun.  Then I hand sewed them to black background.  Used a blanket stitch around the centers.  Which I should practice more!  Fun to do a smaller project.

 

Back of Wilma's quilt.  Color is much prettier...........bright peach.

 Wilma's quilt.  Again, the colors are quite muted.  I'm not sure why my camera does not capture the true colors.  Same pattern as Etta's new quilt but with the fabrics Wilma chose and the backing is bright peach.  

Etta's new quilt for her new apartment in Brooklyn.  Etta and Wilma will share a bedroom and have day beds.  So matching quilts.  Etta picked out all the fabrics.  I'm still working on Wilma's.  Scrappy star pattern.
