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.

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.

A close-up view of the blocks.

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.

More quilting detail in some of the other blocks.

Blue and Pink Floral Lewis and Clark Quilt

This the first Lewis & Clark quilt I made.  This is a queen size quilt.  I love this pattern.  It is very easy.  It was a free pattern on the Internet.  I searched for it today, but I couldn't find it.

Here is a closer view of one corner.  The back is a king size blue sheet.  I trimmed the sheet to the size needed to finish this quilt and folded the sheet to the front side and machine stitched it in place with a decorative stitch.

 Another close-up so you can see the blocks that make this quilt better.

Another close-up.  These squares and rectangles make a 12" finished block.
I put this quilt on my quilting frame.  Pinned it together and took it off the frame.  I quilted it by sewing diagonal lines through the center of each 12" block.  I followed this line from quilt edge to quilt edge.

The alternating 12" finished block is one solid piece.
