Raffle Quilt for Franklin Relic Hall

 This cute flag quilt was this years donation to raise funds for the Franklin, Idaho Relic Hall.  It was alot of fun to make!  The quilt consists of 68 red and tan log cabin blocks.  I am excited to say that we met our goal this year to purchase a plaque commemorating the handcart pioneers that settled in Franklin, Idaho- several of these being my ancestors.

Thanks to all who donated and attended the festivities!

Making it Mini

After a long break from quilting, my machine is purring again!  This little 6 inch mini quilt is pieced with touches of embroidery work.  I machine quilted it on my trusty sewing machine. I love it!!  What a happy way to use up those left over tiny scraps and finish a project in a day.

Happy Sewing!!

Bunny at Thanksgiving?

I am so excited to show my Easter Quilt!~~ What? I know it is the fall season but why not get a jump on it?! Right?  Heehee!  Over 50 percent of this quilt was created using scraps. Yay!!

Thanks to my little Vanna that modeled the quilt for me with her bare toes.

Idaho Days auction quilt

This summer I was able to be part of the Idaho Days Celebration by donating this quilt to be auctioned. Proceeds were donated to the Franklin, Idaho Relic Hall to help purchase a plaque for the early handcart pioneers. Machine Pieced and hand appliqued.

Pattern is by Quilt Soup.   Quilting By Becky Jorgensen.

Really, I like it so much I think I will make me one for me to keep.

Happy Quilting!

Pioneer Quilt

I wanted to share this quilt that I made in honor of my GrGrGr Grandmother Sarah Goode Marshall, who was a Mormon Pioneer. She pulled a handcart from Iowa to the Salt Lake Valley in 1856.  She brought her sister and 5 children from England to join the pioneers. She was one determined lady!

The quilt is machine pieced, hand appliqued and hand embroidered. Quilting was by Becky Jorgensen of PatchworkPosse.  The fabrics are civil war reproductions and the flowers were designed by Blackbird designs. The log cabin pattern is a replica of a quilt made in the 1800's by one of her daughters. I think it turned out beautiful!!

Happy Quilting!!

I don't like it!

Have you ever put together a quilt just to come to the conclusion that you don't like it?  Yeah well.... I created this 'lovely' quilt using the yellow challenge fabric from my quilt guild.  I love the pattern, enjoyed hand appliqueing the flowers and border but...what can I say...I don't like it. . Anyone have any ideas of what to do with a quilt that isn't your favorite?  

Happy Sewing!!

Superdog cape

I was recruited by my sweet little girl to make her a 'Super Dog' cape. After diving into the world of superheros I finally found a picture and to my surprize it looks just like a superman cape...but little bitty. 

I appliqued the logo on and it velcro's in the front. (So little girls don't choke themselves) 

She squeeled when she saw it. Since then she has been 'flying' all over the place.

Can I just be 5 again?  I'm just sayin'....

Happy Fall!

Angie

What a busy summer!  School is back in session and the air has turned cooler....it is starting to feel like fall here in Utah. 

 With that in mind I thought I would show a project I have been working on as a challenge for one of  my quilty groups. 

It's a cute pattern by Bunny Hill Designs. 

  The original quilt has 9 blocks 
but I chose to do a small version with only 4.

                 I can't wait to get this little one done!

Happy Quilting!
