Rag Quilt not From Stash

Since we were trying to use up some our stash and get more rag quilts done, we have added a bunch to Etsy and have had two custom quilt requests.  Here are pictures of the second one.


This one is made of Glimma and Kona gray.  



The back is a gray minky.  This was about 43 inches by 52 inches. It was shipped to customer the end of July.


There is one more custom rag quilt in the works for Tanya's brother.  It is being made out of John Deere Camouflage print. The one we made him for Christmas last year was swiped by one of his sons, they refuse to give it back.  He wants one that is a twin size for a lap quilt, he is 6 ft 6 so pretty tall.

Striped Yellow Baby Bricks


Here is the second of the Yellow and Gray Baby Bricks Quilt out of Glimma.


In case you are wondering, no I don't think we know how to just do 1 quilt, we have to do multiples.


Here is a close up.


We (meaning Tanya) have been trying to take different pictures, so we have a variety of inside and outside shots.


This quilt has been added to our Etsy store.  The pile to be quilted is down by 3 after a productive weekend.

This one turned out cute.

Baby Granny Square #1 with Butterfly Back



The first of several granny square baby quilts is done.


It was echo quilted around the sashings.  It was stitched in the ditch around the colored blocks for a fun texture. 


The back of the quilt has a fun butterfly fabric that matches each of the colors of blocks from the front.
