Here is finish number two for the weekend. It is a scrappy lap quilt for a dear friend's birthday. The pattern is Crazy Eights by Bits 'n Pieces. There website is www.bitsnpieces.net
It was fairly quick to piece together. I added more blocks to make it lap size and a small sashing. I still felt like it was a bit short and added strips at both ends. I did a medium stipple design all over in navy blue thread.
I used a blue tone on tone print for the back and binding.
And of course, the folded quilt pic!

Both are so pretty! I need to get a sewing machine so I can learn to make quilts like that. Someday I will. :)

A lot of finishes on your blog!

THis comment was on my blog by keith's sister Connie
I peek on your mom's blog every so often and I love her quilts. She is very talented!
Just wanted to know your stockers LOL
My sweet talented friend,
Wow, these are beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous! I too love the pictures of a folded quilt showing the outside and inside of ones labor and love. Quilts truly are just that!
We came in last night...actually early this morning 12:30 here and 2:30 there, from the east coast. When Elder Oaks boarded right before take off...we knew it would be a safe journey home.:-)
Our son graduated and the kids are now moved into their new home in Colorado. They will be here today for her brother's wedding in the SLC Temple tomorrow. (We are suppose to go to Boise for the weekend...We aren't sure if we can yet.) It depends on my FIL and his needs.
Hopefully next week I can catch up. Our parents are much improved and I really appreciated your sweet words. My mom is not going to the hospital every other day for debrideing and all the bandages are off. She sounds incredibly awesome and so grateful to all.
Many hugs,
*C*
