Graduation Quilt for Method

My Grandson, Method, graduated from High School this year.  Each of my children and grandchildren gets a quilt for graduation.  His favorite color is blue, so I used blue, brown, and beige batiks to make him this Turning Twenty pattern.  It is 70" x 86".  He is the Joy of my Life.











It has a beautiful Blue back, but I forgot to take a picture.

Leopard Quilt for Crystal

I made this leopard panel quilt for my Niece, Crystal.  She has been working tirelessly for over 2 years, to get Disability and Medical for her Father, my Brother.  He now has both and a great place to live, cataract surgery and custom shoes to help with his numbness due to being a diabetic.  I contributed financially to keep him off the streets, but She takes care of him daily. She loves him dearly, but he is a hand full.



It is quilted in large jungle leaves.  The quilting really makes the quilt.






This is the back fabric.

Using 1.5" Fabric Scraps To Make A Very Scrappy Quilt

One of the ladies in my Quilt Guild made an awesome quilt made from 1.5" wide scrap fabrics.  I had to make one. 
 She got her idea from a blog post on My Quilt Infatuation.  

Be sure to check out my Youtube video below to see how I made mine.


This is the beginning of mine.


The center of my quilt.  Love these ladies and had to use them.



This is the quilt made by Jean that caused several of us to make one.

Below is a link to my Youtube channel.  In this video, I show how to make your own beauty.

Granddaughter's Graduation Quilt

My Granddaughter, Ava, graduated from high school this week.  We are so proud of her.  Of course, Grandma had to make her a quilt to mark the occasion.  Just as I did for my daughter and son years ago.
She likes Rainbows (colors and quilting motif) and Sunflowers (backing fabric).


There were 884 in her class and her last name starts with V.

Sunflower Quilt for Ava

My Granddaughter, Ava, graduated from High School in 2021.  She loves sunflowers and rainbows, so I incorporated these things into her quilt.  She is my mini-me and my Sunshine.




It is quilted in rainbows.











The back is Sunflowers.













I also purchased this quilt for her because it was so perfect for her.







You are my Sunshine.



Humans make my head hurt.
