Crazy Quilt

I wanted to make a blanket for my daughter with some animals that I embroidered.  My mom suggested to put them all together with a pattern that she called a "Crazy Quilt".  You piece together lots of different fabrics in different lengths and sizes.  The result is really fun and cute.  You can see the quilt here in a couple different stages.  After is was all put together I had it quilted by a professional.  I just loved it.

Purple Hearts for Valentines

I originally made this blanket in pink for my daughter.  I loved it so much I decided to try it in other colors.  It's made out of a Bamboo Blend yarn which makes it feel delicate and soft.

Window Pane Blanket

I have made this blanket a couple times and even though it is supposed to be a scrap blanket I just love these bright colors in this pattern, it makes me think of a stained glass window.

T-Shirt Quilt

One of my favorite things that I made with my mom was my T-Shirt Quilts.  These two are my Camp Quilt, made from shirts that I got from the 6 years at Girl's Camp, and then my Theatre Quilt that includes all the shirts from being in plays in Jr. High and High School.  I think there may be Choir and Orchestra shirts in there as well.  It's a great way to keep all those old t-shirts that you don't want to throw away because of the memories associated with them.  The back of my Theatre Quilt is Jeans.  I cut up all my old jeans that fell apart and created a back to them.  Then I got these quilts quilted by a proffesional.  The Theatre Quilt has the Drama masks quilted on it.  It's pretty cool :)

Embroidered Baby Blankets

I made this several years ago. The whole thing is made with individual squares of cats and dogs that have been embroidered. This was also my first attempt at hand quilting, it wasn't perfect but it was fun and a great learning experience. This was meant to be a blanket for a baby when I grew up, but by the time I had kids I just went ahead and made new ones for them individually.

Soft Blue Afghans

The title almost says it all. I love these blankets, they are so cuddly, soft. I have made them in other colors besides blue too, I just really like blue so there is a lot of it.

Angel Soft Purple Blanket

These are still my favorite blankets. They are soooooo soft!!! I made this one for my daughter. I think the dark purple is so pretty, and the contrast between it and the white make this blanket so beautiful. It looks a little mature for a baby blanket, but I guess that fits her personality :)

Blessing Blanket with Flowers

I made this blanket a long time ago. It's meant to be a blessing/christening blanket. Each square is crocheted seperately and then sewn together. I used Red Heart Soft Yarn on this blanket and it made it so fluffy and soft but still held it's shape nicely.

Cuddle Blanket

These blankets are sooooo soft. They are so comfortable and are perfect for cuddling. These babies look so cute in them. My sister Cori uses them for photography props which looks so cute. I made a brown and blue one for my son but I'm too selfish and I use it all the time, but I try to share :).
