Megans Law & A Mug Rug Swap

First Quilt Finish of the Year!

What can I say about this quilt... this quilt was my Megan's Law Quilt. Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. I broke needles, my thread kept snapping, my backing fabric was short by 1/2 an inch, ext., ext.. It took me 11 months to finish this quilt, because I would get so frustrated from everything that went wrong. I felt like every time I would start working on it I would run into a new issue. So today when I put the last stitch on the binding I just about did a happy dance!

Over all I am very happy with the way it came out. Yes, there are a few flaws (Megan's flaws) but I think they give the quilt more character. Over the 11 months I that i work on this quilt I grew quite attached to it and I Hope the woman I made this for will love it as much as I do.

Seak Peak / Name Game Swap

This post is dedicated to Irene.

I started this year by being part of "The Name Game Swap". Irene was assigned me a her partner & worked hard to make me a mini quilt. When she was done she sent Me the quilt she made, somewhere during it's journey, from the United Kingdom, my package was lost. Irene was so upset by this and decided to make and send me another mini quilt. When she told me this I didn't think it was fair that she was making two quilts and only receiving one, so I decided I wanted to make her one too. So, the first picture is a seak peak picture of the one I am making for Irene. The second picture is if the mini quilt Irene made, who just today found its way home.

Irene, thank you so much for the beaitiful mini quilt that you made me.

Till next time, have fun sewing!

Sunrise

This is the mini quilt I made for my "New Beginnings" swap partner. When I started the design, I really wanted to represent what I imagined when I thought of new beginings. The first thing I thought of was sunrises. With every sunrise comes new beginnings. So I named my mini, Sunrise. I'm so excited to have been part of this swap and i can't wait to find out if my partner likes it. I hope that whenever she looks at it her day is filled with a little sunshine.
