A Quilt for My Dad

My dad, bless his heart, is always cold. In his defense we do it keep it pretty chilly in the house during the winter, around 67 or so. He lives with us, by the way. We built him his own small "suite" at the back of the house (so he doesn't have to hear quite so much of the loudness that is our life) with his own door so he can come and go as he pleases. Being at the back of the house means its colder in his room than anywhere else in the house. He also seems to have lost his nice comforter during the move earlier this year. I've been thinking on making him a quilt for a while now and ... Continue Reading...

Lu Lu’s Girl Crazy Quilt

Lu Lu has seen me working on her big brother's quilts for ages now. I had planned on waiting to make her a quilt until she was a little older, in her own room maybe (and not sharing with her 3 brothers), but when Booger recently got to put his newly finished quilt on his bed, she was in awe. I heard those little words. "Can I have a quilt, Mommy?" Um... of course. Why not? I can always make her another when her tastes change, you know like three seconds years from now. So I started checking out all the adorable fabric lines for girls. Let me tell you this: there are about 500x more girl ... Continue Reading...

S’More Love Series Quilts (Part 2)

Poor Booger... Nearly two years ago I started the first in my quest to make all 3 of my boys matching (nearly) quilts. Lemur liked the first backing I chose and Booger didn't so he would have to wait for the second quilt. Bless his patient little heart. Well, not-so-patient at times, but I can't really blame the kid. I had the top pieced and the layers basted almost a year ago. I can claim some grace since I had a new baby and all, but the procrastination had to stop. So I pulled it out, laid it on the back of our couch in plain view, determined to finish it for him. And I did, ... Continue Reading...

S’More Love Series Quilts (Part 1)

Just FYI I'm hopping back in time (to 2013-14) to tell you about the first larger quilt I made (larger than a lap size). I decided to undertake making a quilt for each of my kiddos. At the time I was expecting #4 and knew he would be a boy. God-willing the three boys will share a room when we buy or build a bigger house -- for now all 4 kids share a room, but that is a post for another day. So three boys and a girl who need quilts.... I combed through zillions of fabric lines to find the one I wanted and finally settled on "S'More Love" by Eric & Julie Comstock for Moda fabrics. Here's ... Continue Reading...
