quilt monday

I lucked out with some spare time and had a random layer cake. Could I make something with it? It was also a Saturday night of a long weekend, no quilt stores open until Tuesday. Could I make this work?

I lucked out with some kona yardage that matched the layer cake perfectly. And sewing quickly commenced.

Actually a funny story behind this. I had originally planned to donate this quilt once finished but one of the boys quickly claimed it as his own lol. 

Once the quilt top was done, the next challenge was backing. Did I have enough in my stash?

You betcha.

How fun did that turn out?

I also found a darker solid that made the perfect binding.

Pretty much a success all around!

quilt monday

A friend just had a birthday and I got sneaky. I grabbed this bolt end fabric months ago with the idea of making it into something for her as it's her favourite colours. But what to make? So I asked her what her favourite block was and here we are.

 I do wish I had taken more pictures!

As always with table runners, I kept the quilting simple and went with a stipple.

This will crinkle up gorgeous once it's washed.

I even used my favourite grey grunge fabric. She must be a pretty special friend ;)

Until next time!
