Blooming Nine Patch Quilt - This one is for sale

Here is one of my favorite quilts.  I took forever it seems like to make.  The small squares are 1 1/4" and the large squares are 3 3/4".
My favorite quilts are the ones made from tiny pieces, but I don't like to take the time to make them.

 This quilt is 75" x 86".  It is a little wider and a little shorter than the standard twin bed size.

A closer look at this quilt.

The backing is hand dyed fabric.  This was the fabric that started this quilt.  I quilted this with an extra large stippling stitch.  I didn't want the quilting to take away from the design and it didn't.  I rolled the backing to the front for the binding and mitered the corners.  It is quilted in a peach colored thread.

I will take this quilt to my mom's house to sell at her fall craft fair.

Another Lewis and Clark Quilt - This one is for sale

Here is another Lewis and Clark quilt.  It is my favorite quilt to make.  This quilt is 84" x 94"  It is a little smaller than a queen size quilt.  I have two quilts from this pattern on my queen bed and they fit perfect.

I don't use green very often in my quilts, but this one I do like.

 A closeup.  I almost always roll the backing to the front to bind my quilts.  This one has mitered corners.

Closer.

Here is the back.  The thread is pink.  My mom quilted this one on her quilting machine.

I cropped this picture from the one above so you can see the three different designs.  You have to look close to see them all.

I will take this quilt to my mom's house to sell at her fall craft fair.

Fishing Lewis & Clark Quilt

This is my third Lewis & Clark quilt.  This one is a wide twin size quilt.  I took one row off of the side and the bottom of the original pattern.

A little bit closer view and a little different angle.  I backed this quilt with a tan full size flat sheet.  I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to back the quilt and have enough to fold to the front for a binding.  I machine stitched the binding with a straight stitch.

Here is a closer view of one of the corners.

 A close-up view of one of the blocks.  These squares and rectangles make a 12" finished block.

 The alternating 12" finished block is one solid piece of fabric.

My mom machine quilted this quilt for me.  The pieced blocks have these three fish swimming in a circle in each of them.

The one piece blocks have these fishing tackle boxes in them.

The borders have these fish in rows along them.

Iris Lewis & Clark Quilt

This is the second Lewis & Clark quilt I made.  This is a queen size quilt.  This pattern is great for fabric with large prints.

Here is a closer view of one of the corners.  The back is a king size yellow sheet.  I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to back the quilt and have enough to fold to the front as a binding.

The squares and rectangles make a 12" finished block.

The alternating 12" finished block is one solid piece.

This is the back side of the quilt showing some of the quilting detail.  My mom machine quilted this for me.
