New Baby Quilts

We have been preparing another batch of baby quilts for delivery to the Bedouin shop in Laquiya.  These quilts are jointly made -- we make the cuddly quilts which frame their stunning embroidery! 

These two new ones were made by Hana --

Baby Girl Quilt

My oldest grand-daughter is 8 years old and has often expressed interest in my quilting.  This week she designed a baby girl quilt as a present for a close friend.  First, she decided that it should have a central element -- similar to the Bedouin embroidery in the quilts that I make.  And she chose butterflies as the central motif!  Using 3 inch squares, she just moved on from there!  She even learned how to sew (a little bit) on my fancy sewing machine. 

Here is the final product!

New Queen Quilt

This new quilt for a queen-sized bed (96" X 96") is hot "off the press"!!!  It is made to order for the guest room at my sister's new home on Sanibel Island on the west coast of Florida.  She asked for turquoise -- and got so much more!

Thanks to Hana for all the help!  What a big job!

Carriage Quilt

I recently pieced together this new baby quilt.  Then Hana suggested adding the floral border and the light purple edging.  Both elements add so much!  The quilt is made from 3 inch squares.

If you need any baby gifts -- we have lots to offer!

Coexistence Baby Quilts

We went to visit the Bedouin women at Desert Embroidery in Laquiya and delivered to them a new line of baby quilts integrating their embroidery.  Here is the first batch!

We took home a whole pile of pieces of embroidery so that we could make more baby quilts for them!

Baby Quilts

I have a stash of fabric scraps and I came up with an idea to cut the scraps into 3" squares and use them for carriage quilts.  Just finished three new ones!

Scrappy Crib Quilt

This new crib quilt in the style of the scrappy quilt measures 34" X 44".  The colors -- yellow, turquoise, green and rose -- provide a wonderful delight for baby to gaze at!
