Quilts

I love to sew.  I enjoy making quilts.  I am not a math person, so it takes me longer to figure out what to do with however much fabric I have to work with than it does to actually put the quilt together.  Sometimes I feel like I get stuck with a patchwork style, but it is easier for me to do at this point and I like the look.  Then I read someone's blog or a Pinterest post that said she really like the sharp corners of the squares and how the colors blend together and that is why she always used a patchwork style.  Well, that sounds like me!

The most recent quilt I made was for Aaron and Jennifer's baby girl Carson.  I cut the squares and laid them out in a pattern on the floor one evening when Landon was staying overnight.  The next evening I sewed all of them together and it was ready to take to Betty to quilt.

 
Jennifer picked out the fabrics. At the time I wasn't sure how they would work together, but the end result was really nice. It is one of my favorite quilts.

I really like the colors and how they blend with each other.  I added the polka dotted border print and think it sets it off.



Jennifer is using the quilt for the monthly pictures of Carson. That makes me feel so honored that she is using the quilt I made for pictures which they will treasure forever.










 

Missed the 3rd month birthday for some reason!



Month 4 is one of my favorites.  How cute is Carson!
