We haven't posted anything in a long time, but that doesn't mean we haven't been busy! We have been making tote bags, microwave cozies, baby quilts, and more!
Just recently, our friend, Judy, asked us to make a quilt as a gift for her husband, using his old t-shirts. We had fun working on it together. Here it is! Shhh! It's a surprise.
When this war with Iran started, about 2 weeks ago, and we found ourselves using our safe rooms when we were entertaining guests, one of my daughters requested a new quilt to cover the couch in her safe room. I got right to work, and wasn't surprised to find that the piecing and quilting brought me long periods of calm. This quilt measures 54 by 80 inches and can be used as a single bed blanket.
I have been home about a month now, from an extended trip abroad. Perhaps the best part of coming home is the amount of quilting that was waiting for me! I finished four baby quilts and 3 tote bags since I've been back!
Here are the baby quilts. Many thanks to my friend Judy Kupchan for the pussycat fabric!

My sister's friend just had a grandchild. Here's the quilt my sister chose as a gift --
A work colleague of my daughter's comes from a large family and has a ton of nephews and nieces who are all in their 20's and 30's. So, she has become my biggest customer!
She also likes the idea of giving a baby quilt with a matching tote bag for the new mother! Take a look --
And here are a bunch more baby quilts that she bought this month!
We have been giving these away to friends and family. They are so popular! So here are a bunch more!
It's a hot summer and besides sitting at the pool, it's hard to do anything major. So, we've been both making tote bags as gifts for friends and family.
