Some of My Past Projects

I want to post some of my past projects today. These are things I have worked on and taught myself how to do. Most of the ideas for these projects I got from the internet and from other peoples blogs. Hopefully someone will see something on here and it might inspire them.

This is my first attempt at rag quilting. I made this for my grand daughter last year. I found this actually pretty easy to do and this was my first quilt of any kind.

I was so thrilled when I finished this quilt, I couldn't believe I did it. I went on to make another one that was similar but the back of is was lavender and I gave it to my boyfriends grand daughter Addison who is four months younger than my grand daughter Caralynne. Carylynne was born in April of 2011 and Addison was born in August of 2011.

Before I made these quilts I tried my hand at applique and made a receiving blanket for each of them. I had no idea what I as doing but I think they turned out pretty well. Take a look.

The dark pink one is easier to see, but the light one has pink polka dots on it also. These were also for the grand babies, they are very lightweight and perfect for babies, the little applique was actually easy to do. I want to try doing more appliques in the future. I have so many ideas of things I want to do, I just need to find the time.
