Getting Back into the Saddle

It's been a long time and I've really missed quilting!  Now that I am finally getting back into it, here's my latest little girl quilt!!!

It's made with 7 1/2" squares, lots of purples and greens, and measures 45 X 56" (appropriate for a toddler bed). 

Embroidered Arm Rests

My daughter and her husband asked for something "neat" to cover the arms of their couch.  These matching pieces incorporate Bedouin embroidery and look really nice on the brown couch.

New Couch Quilt

This new couch quilt is "hot off the press"!  It is made in the scrappy style, using bold colors -- orange and turquoise!  So much fun to make!

Baby boy quilt

The yellows and greens of this crib quilt are so soothing!  And this one is sold already!!!

Kitchen Items

My niece has red appliances in her kitchen and she requested a food processor cover. 

Here it is!  Hope she likes it!

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!
