More Quilts

I thought I'd post a picture of a custom quilt I made last year. It's made with a combination of several different denims with red top stitching, red buttons and a backing of red flannel. I even used the back pockets from a pair of jeans. And it's King size!










A couple of years ago I wanted to try a technique called Watercolor Quilting. You can use the pattern in a piece of fabric to make the picture you want. This Floral Wreath wallhanging was my first try.










We've also been busy making baby quilts.
This all blue rag quilt is made with a number of cotton fabrics in a random pattern and backed with several different colors of blue cordaroy. It's very soft and fuzzy.

This pretty pink quilt has a variety of pink cottons and little teddy bears. It is a traditional design and is backed with a pink fabric.











It's spring so that means baseball! We have mixed in red, yellow and blue cotton fabrics and backed it with yellow in a traditional style.











We have moons and stars with yellow and purple randomly mixed and a little stripe to make this cute quilt backed in dark purple.










All of the baby quilts shown here are for sale. The rag quilt is $35. and the traditional baby quilts are $45. Let us know if we can custom make a quilt in the color combination you prefer.

Kid's Stuff

The kids in our lives need something special, too. Since kids like to be creative and can sometimes color outside the lines, we have "Kid's Aprons" to get messy in. These aprons are designed for kids under 8 years old and they all have a front pocket to hold crayons or paint brushes. They have an adjustable neck and tie at the waist in the back. And best of all, these aprons are totally machine washable-just make sure you check the pockets first! We have a wide variety of colors to choose from including:
Brown with Pink trim
Blue with Red trim
Red with Yellow trim
Cream with Green trim
Blue with yellow trim
Brown with Red trim
Cream with Blue trim
Cream with Purple trim
Red with Blue trim
Camoflage with Brown or Black trim
Some of our aprons are embroidered with the title "artist" and some tell everyone that the wearer is ready to "create". You can purchese one of our ready made aprons for $10. or we can custom make one with your choice of colors and the child's name on the front for $15.

We have designed a unique way to summon the Tooth Fairy. Each pillow has a pocket for that valuble tooth to be safely tucked into. It is embroidered with the child's name and the pillow is made from a fabric that shows the child's interest. Each pillow measures about 6" square.
Each pillow is custom made to order for $15.
