Black & White Quilt

Now that the baby quilt was done, I was ready to tackle a larger human size quilt for my boyfriend, Shane. Although a halloween theme quilt would have been totally up his alley, we went for a more timeless black and white theme for this one (a Halloween theme is definitely coming though).

I absolutely love how this came out. The white floral fabric is my favorite and a great contrast against the darker pieces. The larger quilt was much more of a challenge in my small space, but i’m really pleased with it.

Rainbow Baby Quilt

With the news of my first niece I wanted to do something special. Something that I could put time into and gift to her that she would (hopefully) cherish for a time of her life. Though I hadn’t touched a sewing machine in 10+ years I was determined to make a baby quilt.

The babies room is rainbow themed, which made the quilt so much more fun. My mom, sister-in-law, and my self took a little trip to the store to pick the fabric for the quilt. We went with various different rainbow patterns, yellow and white stripe to tie in the yellow backing, and a few Star Wars squares for a personal touch.

Though I ran into some mistakes along the way, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the process and how well the quilt came out. This reignited my passion for sewing and i’ve been on a kick ever since. I absolutely can’t wait to see her all wrapped up <3
