Pi Beta Phi Goodies

My daughter joined the Pi Beta Phi sorority and I thought it be fun to make a few little Pi Phi goodies. I made a cute towel with blue rickrack and wine carnations and a key chain in Pi Phi colors.  I think they both turned out great. 


Strippy scrappy pink floral and happy - finished

I finally quilted and finished this quilt.  I did the quilting at the local quilt your own shop and I am very pleased with the results. The quilting is cute flowers with pink thread. This was at the suggestion of Chris at quilt your own and I think it was a brilliant suggestion. I really do love this quilt.  

Valentine's Day gift from my college daughter


For Valentine's Day I made my daughter is cute little mug rug and festive Valentines pillowcase. 

Gift for My Dad

Dad's can be some of the hardest people to buy or make gifts for. Since my dad enjoyed the quilt that I made him last year I thought I would make him a fun pillowcase.  I used a manly plaid and embellished it with machine embroidery. He just loved it.

I am so happy to see this cute little guy enjoying the quilt that I made. Awwwww!


Another Kaffe Fassett Quilt

The Top picture is the final quilted and bound project.  I love the colors but wish I had made the stars with better color contrast. The lower right hand star has the contrast that I like.  I quilted it at the Quilt Your Own shop.  I am very happy with this quilt.  It is my favorite thus far.  

The lower picture is the un-quilted quilt top.
