Birthday Quilts
I was able to finish 3 quilts in February and one so far in March. One of the February quilts still needs to be bound. I am trying to make a quilt for each one of the grand-kids this year, not huge ones but one they can snuggle in while watching TV. There are 23 kids and so far I have done 5 quilts. I don't have any more birthdays till April but it has 4, so maybe I can get ahead. The 3 yard quilt patterns from Donna Robertson work great, except I have been making them a little larger than her pattern. You can find her pattern books at Inchwormfabrics.
March is National Quilt Month
Happy quilting,
23 quilts in one year is quite a challenge! They will love having a special quilt from you. Nice job on the finished quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt on the left! Good luck with making all the quilts!! :o
ReplyDeleteLovely quilts, thanks for the inspiration! For me, having a goal to make a bunch of quilts as gifts often serves as great motivation. I hope it works that way for you!
ReplyDeleteYou have some pretty quilts. I know your grands wii love them. Hope your plan is doable.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm impressed and inspired with the number of quilts you have completed and how pretty they all area. Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteFebruary was very productive in your sewing room! Your grands are lucky to have a talented grandma like you to create a treasured quilt for them. You've got a great start on fulfilling your goal!
ReplyDeleteI have one of Donna's books and it is sitting waiting to be used. Your quilts turned out great and I love the variety her patterns bring. Such a great concept! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou are getting a lot done. 23 in one year is an accomplishment. I like Donna's patterns for fast an easy but I'm like you I make them bigger.
ReplyDeleteWhat lucky grandchildren you have! Those quilts will mean so much to them. I'm looking forward to following your progress!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of quilts, but I bet you are super motivated when it comes to your grandchildren! Good luck.
ReplyDeleteMaybe having only five grandchildren is not so bad but not as many blessings, double edge sword. Awesome quilts and wonderful giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI know they will each enjoy their snuggle quilts. What fun! 🧵🪡🧵 angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom

ReplyDeleteYou have very lucky grands to be receiving a quilt from grammy:) Tone on tones-we can never have to many of them. I am going to try to find you on bloglovin'.
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought it was a great achievement the year I made quilts for each of the (then) seven grands! You're well on the way to your goal! Amityquilter2008 at gmail dot com.
