Miss Kate Herringbone Baby Quilt


 Made... just because I fell in love with the "Miss Kate" fabric line from Bonnie and Camille of Moda Fabrics. Such fun rich colors and patterns to play with. Pieced as a simple herringbone pattern from half-square triangles and quilted with an allover zigzag straight line quilting pattern.
This quilt is backed in Miss Kate green floral and bound with Miss Kate red scallops. It measures 
33" x 41". Finished in November 2016.




This was my first attempt at zigzag quilting and I LOVE the effect.


And I love the red scallop binding.


Firsts for me with this quilt: half-square triangles, zigzag quilting, and first time sewing with a Bonnie and Camille line.  Lovely...

Dr. Seuss ABC Quilt


This quilt was made from a Dr. Seuss ABC quilt panel with side borders of coordinating Dr. Seuss fabrics by Robert Kaufman Fabrics. I love the vibrancy of this quilt, with it's saturated bright primary colors. It's my slightly modified version of "It's Sew Emma's" BIG A - LITTLE A quilt pattern, available free from www.FatQuarterShop.com. 



I chose a steel gray Moda crosssweave texture fabric for a more subdued backing, with a banner of Dr. Seuss fabrics thrown in for fun. This quilt was made for my great niece and nephew, Ari & Hyrum. Makes me want to snuggle up and read some Dr. Seuss favorites!
