Since I traveled to Texas last week and didn’t post last week’s “finishes”, we have more than usual! So set back with a cup of tea or a glass of lemonade and browse!

This pattern is on my very long list of “want to make”–really can’t decide which I like best–the pattern or the machine quilting. Both create movement; you can almost feel the breezes.Fourteen different fabrics from the same line but all the blocks are “flying geese”. It is 63″ x 63″. The batting is a cotton/polyester blend. $185.

This holiday quilt has gnomes, buffalo plaids, and reindeer is bright saturated colors! What else would you want?

The custom quilting is something else! The quilt measures 50″ x 61″–will fit on the back of a sofa perfectly. $185 SOLD

This holiday quilt is a “Single Irish Chain” in reds and greens. The machine quilting, a holly leave motif, is in a red and green variegated thread. The quilt measures 60″ x 71″–lap size or it would fit a twin–barely.

The backing is a cozy flannel–remember it is a “nap” quilt — $185

Red and green was also used in this “I Spy” quilt for the corner stones and the sashing. Can you find a tiger or a sail boat? The soft backing is a silver grey Minky– 48″ x 48″. $100

Another non-traditional baby quilt measures 36″ x 45″ and also has cuddly Minky on the back, but this time it is a dark gold color. Machine quilted and sports a scrappy binding. $75

This pieced quilt is so soft with Minky on the front and flannel on the back. It is machine quilted but the fabric lends itself to be very “swaddly”. 43″ x 53″. $100

There are two new sets of placemats–

These autumn placemats are made from a pre-printed panel and pre-quilted. Approximately 14″ x 16″–6 for $60.

I am very tempted by this minimalist set. My phone camera did not do it justice. There are 4 placemats–same pattern, different fabrics. 16″ x 18″ in size . $40

More tea-towels–prices vary.

Table runner–colors are rust- brick red with beige background. Machine quilted with hand binding.

It has a floral backing in the same color scheme. 13″ x 48″. $40

Pot holders with Insul-bright lining plus a layer of cotton batting to help project your table top and your hands. Each has a handing loop. $8 each

We even have puppies and kitties for sale. Each one appears very friendly– $15 each
