This, that and Mario!

Just wanted to post a few things I've been working on lately.

First and most important - a Mario Brother's Quilt for the oldest grandson.  Now I just got to figure out what kind to make for second one!

Next up, a bag I made with cotton and cork fabric.   First time working with the cork fabric - so much fun, but so expensive!

And finally, don't know when I'll get around to more of these - but I like this block so much, I can't wait to post it even if nothing is completed - Applique Scrappy Lion:

Baby quilts....

I love making baby quilts.  They are quick, easy, and always well received. And the baby’s name on it is all the better.  Here are two recent ones I made - happens to be they (the babies) are cousins!

Row by Row 2017

I am always so behind ...   I just logged in to catch up on some baby quilts and other things and found the following post I started and never published - and RxR 2018 has started!! (I'm not participating this year, though I will probably stop by Jackman's in St. Louis - they have a beautiful design again this year!)

Now on to that post - as it was when I left off.......

For the third year, I participated in the Row by Row Experience this past summer. The long arm makes all the difference in the world. I completed the quilt in about two weeks of the start date. I took it to Quilts Plus (Indy - 86th Street across from North Central High School) where it hung for a few weeks and I received a 30 fat quarter bundle of beautiful fabric as my prize for being the first to bring  a completed quilt to this shop and an additional smaller fat quarter bundle for having Quilt Plus’s Row in my quilt (second from bottom with the checker boards).
