I'm actually making a large project with my pile of True Colors from Anna Maria Horner, but after cutting it all out I had enough scraps to make a little baby quilt.  So I did that first! :)

I love, love, love the backing: Clippings from Anna Maria Horner's line Loulouthi, and doesn't that print from Dowry make great binding?  The white background prints are ones I had in my stash that make those rainbow colours just pop.  I do love a happy quilt.

This one is for sale in my Etsy shop!

Here is a pretty baby quilt I decided to name Paris in the Spring when I landed on the Eiffel Tower backing fabric for it hiding in my stash.  I started with a few pieces of Lillybelle fabric by Bari J. for Art Gallery fabrics, some aqua and pale blue solids and one little pink piece of fabric from 3 Sisters' line Paris Flea Market.  Et voilĂ !

I quilted it with the wavy stitch on my Bernina (otherwise known as stitch number 4) and a pale pink Aurifil 40 wt thread.  Finished dimensions are 35" by 43".

This little cuddly one is made with scraps of solid Kona cottons that have been building up around here.  I love making log cabin blocks and I am rather partial to the courthouse steps variation I've used in this quilt.  The sashing is Kona Oyster. The backing is a nice soft red flannel from Riley Blake.  I've used my usual Aurifil 50 wt threads for piecing and quilting.  The finished dimensions are 33.5" by 37".

Ok, ok, ok. I said the next economy block quilt I made was not going to be scrappy. But here I am. It looks a lot like the one I just made last week, doesn't it? But I started with 3.5" inch squares in the centre, rather than 4.5" and spent a little more time fussy cutting. I love the littler blocks. I love the American Jane backing and other American Jane fabrics and scraps that I used throughout the quilt. This one finished at 31" by 38" and is for sale in my Etsy shop!
