Here are a couple of quilts I've finished lately!
This is a Polaroid-style baby quilt called "Fiver's Scrapbook" that was inspired by a quilt block by Lee at Freshly Pieced:

Here are some close-ups of a few of the blocks. My machine quilting is pretty off-the-mark in this one... don't look too closely!
And here is the label I embroidered to go on the back. (Fiver is the nickname for this little baby that I had for her in utero.)
And here is another quilt I made for the wedding of two friends of mine. One of them made a joke one time about me making them a quilt to protect their bedsheets from the cats. So I made a yellow, white, grey, and black quilt to match their three cats.
I really wanted to use a lot of greys in this quilt, but only had one grey fabric. I am trying to use more of what's in my stash, so I ended up flipping some of the black and white prints I had and using them wrongside-up in the quilt. I think the technique worked pretty well! Here is a somewhat closer shot of the stripes:
And here is the quilt label. The title is, of course, "Sheet Protector".
Thank you for looking in!
