Quilts 4 Kids 19-5

Keeping up with my personal goal (so far)  of 2 quilts 4 kids per month.  This one does not call to me so much, must be the harst colors.  I hope someone will like it.  It measures 43 x 54.  Dear husband aka incredible hulk is peeking out the top and dog # 1 Rosie managed to get in the photo too.  I quilted stars in all the red squares  then thought, how will I travel through all the other squares without too many thread breaks.  I winged up the rest of it.

Here is the back, a red fleece.  This year I bought a bunch of fleece laps  50 x 60.  Most are truly fun kid friendly designs.  I chose fabrics for the tops to coordinate with the backings.

Today I'm linking up with  Judy of Small Quilts and Doll Quilts.   for design wall Monday.

On Wednesday, I'll be joining  Susan at Quilt Fabrication, Jennifer of the Inquiring Quilter  and  Esther at Esthers Quilt Blog for W.I.P.

RSC 19 - Greens

Finally worked with the green scraps for my RSC projects.  Well, the 3 new projects anyway.  Haven't re-visited the older rsc projects yet.  I have these projects planned out in EQ, so know how many of each unit are needed.  I am just pulling myself away from so much piecing. I want to be quilting all the time.

I'm linking up with Angela of Soscrappy today  and with Cynthia for Oh Scrap on Sunday.  Be sure to visit these sites to see what other quilters are sharing.

Asian Lanterns

I have a finished quilt to share today.  It was made from the free Beaded Lanterns pattern shared  HERE.

Started August 25, 2018 thanks to a Stashbuster challenge.  I actually cut 2 kits of this pattern.  The other kit is waiting for attention.  Maybe next year ...............

My quilt holders for photos found it easier to hold it up sideways instead of straight up.

The backing .......  a flowery piece of extra-wide fabric

I used Irfanview to rotate my photo which shows it right side up  but at a bit of an odd angle.  It still looks better this way .  Quilted all-over clamshells,  finished at 62 1/2 x 80 1/2 .

I'm joining these linky parties this week ..........................

RSC19 - Yellows

Made it just in time for end of month.  Yellows for the 3 new projects this year.  I've not sewn all the triangles together into rows yet because I haven't decided the final route yet.  THis gives me chance for making a change.

The yellows are done and now I can get back to machine quilting ....................

Quilts 4 Kids - #4

I had this fleece camouflage backing and needed to come up with a quilt top that would work with the color scheme.  This is the 2nd quilt 4 kids finished this month. It finished at 44 x 56.   So far I have been able to keep up with my personal goal of 2 per month..  I hope some child will like the colors in this one.

Q4K # 19-4

and here is the backing

The quilting is a bit of an experiment, trying to make clamshells or baptist fans, but with the design flowing straight up, instead of side to side.  I ended up with too large of a center open area  when alternating the fans. I am still determined to conquer the design element, so will be doing more drawing on paper first.

I'm linking  up with Connie of Freemotion By The River today and Wednesday with Susan at Quilt Fabrication, Esthers Quilt Blog  and  Jennifer at the Inquiring Quilter.   Be sure to visit these sites to see what other creative quilters are sharing today.

RSC19 - Reds

I may be a week late, I finished my reds last Sunday.  I only added 3 new RSC projects this year.  I started out with a goal of one new project, but fell off the wagon on that note.

The three new projects are all bundled together here on the design wall,

A great goal would be to finish these in the same year they are started.  No excuse this time!

Linking up with Angela at Soscrappy (the one who started it all) and on Sunday with Cynthia for Oh Scraps.

Quilts 4 Kids 19-2

This quilt was such fun to quilt up.  Stitched around the elements of all the beach balls and fmq all over.  Had a bad time with the binding, but wasnt about to rip it out since it was stitched at a 2.0 setting.  I will make adjustments on my next binding adventure.

So here is Q4K 19-2, 45 x 54.

and a fun fleece backing ................

I made my first goal of  completing 2 Q4K per month.  I hope February is as productive.

Quilts 4 Kids 19-1

I did some power cutting in December before the year ended.  I gathered some saved pics of  children's quilts that I considered quick to cut or sew.  Then I spent a couple days pulling fabrics and cutting up kits for 20 quilts - 10 patterns and 2 of each.  My goal is to finish 2 quilts every month.

Here is the first finish.  I am not apt to come up with ingenious names for 20 quilts, so I will name them as in 2019 cuz I plan to do this every year,  19-1, 19-2, 19-3   etc.

19-1 .... the fabric looks gray in the photo but it is actually a tiny blue yellow and white print.  The center blue was blah, so i added some stars to go with the star fabric in the border.  These quilts are so fun and quick to quilt.  It finised at  45 x 54 .

and the back is a fleece print ............

I'm linking up with  Susan at Quilt Fabrication  and  Lorna  at  Sew Fresh Quilts and Alycia of Alycia Quilts on Friday.   Be sure to visit these sites to see what other creative quilters are sharing today.
