Kinabalu

I was going through some older magazines and came across this pattern.  I had been wanting to try a curved log cabin, so decided to make this.  I gave it to my sister.

Fire and Ice Bargello

Bargello patterns have always looked too complicated to me, and I'm not sure how I came across this one, but the pattern is a free one from Fons & Porter.  It uses 20 different fabrics, which I pulled completely from my stash and was fun to make.

Scrappy Stars Around the Corner

The 2016 Scrapitude Mystery by Charlotte Hawkes is now in progress.  Here are my fabrics:

I chose a black tone-on-tone for my background fabric and love the way all my colors "pop" against it.

Here's the completed top.  I decided to add a Seminole border.  It has been quilted and is on a guest room bed.

Youth Quilts

I am way behind on updating my blog.  I am still doing quilts for the Foster Teens at King's Home.  Here is a sampling of the ones I have done since my last post.

Paths to Faith

My ex-sister-in-law, whom I love dearly, was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.  I have been thinking for a long time about giving her one of my quilts and when I heard this news, I decided now was the time, but could not decide what I wanted to do.  I saw a picture of a similar quilt using the Wings of Prayer panel on a Facebook page and as soon as I saw it, I knew it was the one for Barbara.  I was able to track down the pattern called Paths of Faith and the panel.  All done except for quilting and hemming.  I know she will be very surprised and will love it!

En Provence Mystery

This is Bonnie Hunter's most recent mystery.  I have mine finished except for a couple of borders I plan to add.  I made a couple of changes in mine to make it a little different and less "busy" and to add more color.  The centers of the blocks were supposed to be a neutral.  I made mine purple.  The centers of the magenta stars sashing was also supposed to be a neutral.  I made mine the same magenta.  Much happier with it this way.  I will add a narrow yellow border and a wider magenta border.

Trickling Boxes Mystery

This is a mystery that was done through a group I'm following on Facebook called Just Us Quilters.  We received a clue a month.  Chose all fabrics from my stash.  Completed and will be donated as a charity quilt.
