Stripey Blanket

This pattern was one I found on pinterest, and I loved the idea. Each row (or two or three) is a different color, and decorative stitches are thrown in along the way. As a throw blanket, it's fun and the perfect size, and the color choices are endless. Visit here and here to see the post. I would make this blanket again, because it goes quickly, and I love double crochet!

Christmas Tree Wallhanging

Christmas tree wall hanging - 2012 I found this design in an old quilting magazine. A hand-quilted, batting-in-the-middle, wall hanging with sequins, buttons, and beads sewn on as ornaments. I machine appliqued garland in yellow thread, and a bright yellow star on top. I hand stitched the star rays with yellow thread. The tree was originally supposed to be pieced together with Christmas fabric. But I wanted my tree to be all one pattern piece, so I had to design my own tree pattern, and the green fabric I used actually matches the valance next to it (not shown). The white background fabric is a large (about 10" x 16") piece of eyelet.

Blue and Brown Baby Quilt

A cute frilly blanket for a baby girl that's different from the traditional pinks. This baby quilt measures roughly 49" x 49" with a 3" gathered ruffle around the edges and a brown dotted strip at the edge. Large flowers of blue dots on a brown background at each corner and in the center, with smaller flowers circling the center. The top and backing fabric is of pale blue gingham, with a blanket-type batting in between.
