An old finish - almost forgotten

I made an inventory of my quilts, and I realised there is one, what I finished a long time ago (in 2014) for our niece. I did not have photo, so I asked it quickly. It is well loved and used, best thing for a quilt, bit not for someone who wants to take photo :) I got the materials from my sister-in-law and tried to put together a girly one. It is a little pale for my taste, but my niece likes it a lot! The freemotion is only a stitch in the ditch, and even that one is a little off - it is very difficult not to slip the sides.

3 for the triplets - Girl quilt

This was the 3rd bedcover I made for our nieces/nephew. They are triplets and they all got bedcovers for Christmas. The design is similar to the other girl's, but the colors are different.

2 for the triplets - Girl quilt

I decided to make a quilt for my niece. Her color is yellow (she is one of a triplet, so color distinction is important in her family :) ). It was my first big project, but I really liked. I decided on the design with the piecing and also on the free motion quilting.

christmas birdies

I almost forget to show my Christmas birdies. It was ready by Christmas but the quilting is still missing. I will finish somewhen but it is on display anyway. The design is called House Warming Party by Vicky Bellino and Bloom Creek.

Boy quilt

Boy quilt 

2014 November (1 week)

210x160cm

Originally I started to make a quilt for my other niece (I have a lot) but I run out of white fabric and in the meantime I started to put together a simple boy quilt for her brother. I simply used all material I have found in the basket - an old shirt, an old trousers including some remaining end of a green and a white linen curtain. I really like the outcome, but since it is quite huge (210x160cm) I did not quilted apart from the stitch in the ditch. The grey is actually a striped white bluish greenish brownish material. There are some wrinkles in the fabric, but a washing and an ironing can make miracles.

First free motion project - Leah Day

Leah Day course for free motion quilting 2014 Summer-Autumn

To get over my aversion of my inability to free motion quilt my quilts, I went through the course offered by Leah on her blog. It was real good, I really enjoyed, and it took only that long due to the fact that we had a 2 month renovation in between. I will upload some details because it is really fascinating, and the outcome is much better than I thought during the production. Click on to see the details!

Baby quilt for Linda

2014 October

Ready in one week when my little son was on Autumn break with my parents and I had free evenings to stitch. Machine applique for our niece, some of the material from her parents to be used somewhere. Also not quilted just stitch in the ditch - I still afraid to destroy something real nice...

First quilts

I have disappeared for quite a while, but I have done a lot. Stitchingwise not so much, but I learnt how to quilt! My first works are for babies, and right after I made a huge quilt last summer. I used only stitch in the ditch, not real quilting at that time.
