Baby oh Baby!

Remember the post of the new babies in our family? Here are their quilts!  Baby girl will have hers soon - I promise before she enters kindergarten!  Our  basement flooded over a month ago and there is furniture stored in my quilting room while I await my Mr. S to finish the reconstruction.  It may take forever till he can get to it....and right now I can't get to my quilting machine to quilt!  How sad is that???

This photo is the quilt top unquilted.   I won the pattern as a prize at a quilt store during a shop hop in June 2010.  It is called "Gumballs" by Amy McClellan and it took alot of fat quarters and many trips to several quilt shops but was a fun way to test my creativity! I will take another photo when this quilt is finished. 


"My Mr. Lincoln" has his quilt as his was finished "pre-flood zone"!  His quilt pattern, "eat, play, sleep, repeat" came from the Moda Bakeshop website. A design by Vanessa from V and Co.   A really easy applique quilt and so much fun to do with primary colors. I wanted it to be bright and cheerful for him to lay on and look at the bright colors when he starts to scoot.  I bought fabric backing the day after he was born in St. George at a quilt shop his other grandma showed me.  She bought some of the same fabric that day for the quilt she is making for this sweet little guy. I think that little tid bit makes both quilts from his grandmas very special.  Lincoln loves this quilt - so says his mommy and daddy!

Both of these quilts have a different look and they were so much fun to put together.  Have I said lately how much I love to sew and quilt?
