Working Wednesday....

We have had a few computer problems here....grrr!
But it gave me time to do a little cutting and stitching....


actually lots of cutting, stitching and pressing....



And on Monday we finished a class....so I am excited to be able to share more fantastic finishes with you!!!


Susan made a GIANT coin quilt!  It is just marvelous!  I love the dark chocolate brown with those pops of teal and red!  And check out her pick stitching....


Susan used a variegated thread for the straight line quilting...I love the texture the variegated thread adds :)

And then we have Helen's baby quilt!  Helen is expecting her second little girl very soon....this is a perfect girly girl quilt....



Helen machine quilted with organic straight line stitching.  She always chooses such fantastic fabrics!


So sweet!
And speaking of sweet....Katie made a baby quilt as well :)  Katie will be welcoming her first baby girl VERY, VERY soon!

This is such a fresh, lovely quilt....perfectly suited for the new baby!


I love the fabrics in this quilt!  And she positioned the borders so cleverly....giving the top and bottom border a scallop effect!

  

What a great class this was!  Three mom's-to-be and an OB nurse!  LOL!  They were a fun group.  Best of luck to each with their new little ones :)
Happy Wednesday!

  5. Lovely collection of Coin Quilts, even better that they are for babies expected soon. Love the idea Helen used of interspersing the coin columns with a flowered fabric. Beautiful!
