March Finish #2 and #3

Yea!  Two finishes!!

I had most of this quilt finished before the Shelter-at-home order for our county, but now it's done.  The baby was born in October but I couldn't find the right pattern for a boy.  Linda and Carl Sullivan from Colourwerx spoke at one of my guilds in February; this is their "PaintBox" pattern .  I would show it at our March meeting, except all of my guilds are canceling their meetings due to the coronavirus pandemic.  I'll deliver it as soon as I'm able to visit family.

48 x 48 inches

I used left-over strata pieces on the back.
When I make quilts for the children I try
and incorporate a fabric with numbers.
(retired mathematics teacher here!)

This was a kit I purchased from The Quilt Show during one of their sales.  I thought it would be a good donation quilt, but I like it so much I'll be offering it to the family first.  It uses Cuddle fabric so it's very soft.  My first time using this fabric . . .  not too bad.  

I'll be looking at my UFO and WIP lists to see what to work on next.  I do need to make a lavender quilt for the newest great niece born earlier this month.  The fabrics are pulled, I'm just trying to find the right pattern.

Thanks for checking in. 

First March Finish

I finished another quilt from my "back log".
This one is for Mallory.  I'm not sure where I purchased the kit, but the pattern is "Windblown Blossoms" by Deborah Reed.  Published in Quiltmaker March/April 2010.

It will be delivered next month, so . . . .  another quilt finished and out of the house. Yea!! What will I do with all the room I'm creating in my studio and storage?  The empty space does not show.  I'm not even making a dent!

49 x 61 inches
The black inner border was not in the original pattern.

If I was making the quilt again - which I'm NOT -
I would use different designs on the inner portion.
I'm pleased with the outer border.  I combined a couple
of designs to create a continuous feather variation.

Thanks for checking in.
