Baby Shower Gift

This quilt turned out cute.  I wasn't so sure when I was making it.  Both, Richard and I like brighter colors.  This is for a gift for a new baby at church.  She told me she likes more pastel colors.  I had 5 fabrics, but couldn't find anything I really liked for a binding at the one store I had chose other fabrics at.  I was looking at another store and found the perfect binding to tie it all together. and decided to add some of it to the front as well. The back was a super soft chevron minky in off-white.  Richard claimed it was a real pain to quilt, oops, but it looks and  feels great.  It involved a lot of time with a seam ripper, it stretched way too much.

All in all a pretty quilt to add to our complete list.

Car & Denim Rag Quilt

This is a gift for a nephew that didn't get a quilt a couple years ago.

It is made up of  8 1/2 inch blocks of denim and car print fabric.  The back is a tie dye blue flannel.  This quilt is really heavy.  

Wheelchair Rag Quilt

This rag quilt is a gift for Tanya's mom.  Yes it looks like a baby size  quilt.

 We made it out of fabric she likes.  It small so it is useful as a quilt when she is in her wheelchair.  It is one of two quilts  being made for Christmas.

We will be posting several Christmas gifts, but only the ones of people that don't have internet or follow our blog.  The rest will be posted after Christmas.
