Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

Speed Demon

I can't even tell you how fast this went together!  I started it around 9:30 and it was to this point by noon!  Whew.  Aren't those black and white prints adorable?

The next step is the applique flower that goes right where the "ribbons" come together.  I may not get to that for a couple of days due to my work schedule.  Darn, I am so keen to get this "All Wrapped Up" .  lol, that is the name of the pattern!

I know, I know, this is what I should be working on.

My Eventide small hour glass blocks.

Honestly, what do I need with another bed sized quilt?  I have a baby on the way who needs stuff!  Can you tell I am distracted?  Silly me.  Just can't seem to help it.

  3. That is VERY CUTE! I love it when patterns can be “adjusted” to black and white ones. It makes them even more versatile…and…I just love black & white.

  7. That is so nice – I can see that quilt going on my list – The twins turn six in October and this will be their present. Little girls love pink.

  9. This looks like a perfect make for baby gift quilt!! I’d be distracted myself.
    I think it’s very normal for we quilters, to tuck in an extra project while we work on another…isn’t it?

  25. It’s so cute and adorable for a baby girl, who will love bright colors. I had 4 quilts done before our granddaughter (first grandchild)was born and was told to slow done on the quilts, because remember – you’ll be expected to make that many items for all the others that are born as well!

  29. How do you keep your strips so straight!?! You are so good. It’s going to be absolutely adorable. You will have to make at least one baby quilt that you don’t post about as a surprise. Have you been to Strawberry Patches in Bakersfield? They specialize in baby fabrics and patterns. They are on my links.

  31. Haven’t seen this one yet, I can’t wait to see the applique. I feel the same way, I think it’s Spring Fever!!

  33. Happy St Patricks Day. That quilt is adorable. This baby is going to just have a new quilt for every day. I am getting ready to also have my first grandchild and the mother hates quilts. Every quilt that I have given to them so far is stored in the basement in a plastic tub. So what is one to do when all they do is quilt. LOL

  35. I think your Eventide is great without the hourglass blocks! Soooo…you could call it done and move on to more girly baby stuff since that is what is on your mind!

  41. looking for the pattern all wrapped up. I can not find it anywhere. Any suggestions? They say no longer available. I can kind of figure it out but would really like the instructions. You can e-mail me at [email protected] thanks
