First up is this cute little pink scrap quilt.  Back in the day I must have done a number of pink quilts 'cause my pink bin is overflowing!  I had a lot of patches the same size and a lot of HST.  The border fab was leftovers from a quilt I made for my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary,  that's got to be at least 20 years ago?!  Funny the things we remember...  Monochrome color schemes are so easy, every piece of fab goes with everyother piece of fab!  I'm donating this quilt to the CASA the foster kids support program.  Next up is this T-shirt quilt that I made for myself.  You can see by the link I finished the top in 2013! Since I made it for myself the quilting and binding kept getting pushed to the end of the To- do list.  But I finally finished it and it is really nice and cuddly. http://cspoonquilt.blogspot.com/2013/09/its-my-quilt-and-ill-laugh-if-i-want-to.html I'm not much of a fishing person but I really like fish T-...

Here are a couple of tops I finished in the past 2 weeks.  I started them in the Fall but had to set them aside to get organised for our local Fair.  These two were made with some fat quarters of Amy Butler fabric.  They are such bright and cheerful prints I thought they would make good kid quilts for donation.  They still need borders but I'm going to keep that simple / solid. The center of this little cutie is made from four crazy patch orphan blocks.  All I had to do was square them up, sew them together and add the border.  I don't know who made the blocks. They were gifted to me by the "bargain garden" as left overs that did not sell.  The BG ladies gave me a whole bag of orphan blocks to make charitable quilts.  These cute blocks practically jump out of the bag and put themselves together.  It's fun when that happens! What's your favorite pattern for charity quilts? You're probably thinking these aren't really finished finis...

Congrates to Elizabeth over at Mama's Quilts!  She was our lucky winner in this month's giveaway! I've got some finishes to share!  I wll post soon! Happy Weekend everyone! Cheers. CW

Details for the give away are at the bottom of the post!  Spring Sampler Block                                    8.5 “ unfinished  Sometimes it's nice just to make the BOM a Sampler!  Everyone can choose their own favorite block or try something new!  I'm calling it our Spring Sampler with this fun Aunt Grace print by Judie Rothermel.  The grey back ground makes it look possibly 30's or Modern and the print could even be a Mid Century modern, a really fun print to play with! I'm also posting over at Sarah's "Can I get a Whoop Whoop Friday" at Confessions of a Fabric Addict" linky party 'cause i'm so glad I got this posted done this week!
