...Twins?

Yep - twin quilts!

Suzanne helped me plan out the best usage of these gorgeous fabrics donated by Fat Quarter Shop and then I pieced them, and then we each quilted one. Such pretty fabrics so we cut the pieces nice and big. The gray is Connecting Threads' solid "Silver Lining" - love it!


Binding is the same gray, and the backing is actually a bright pink, very soft home dec fabric that I think is probably meant for drapes, or maybe jacquard tabling? Anyway - perfect use, straight from the stash, and wide enough that I didn't have to piece it.


The back of mine - I did a small meander with a slight wave in it in each block, leaving that sashing unquilted.


Wanna see my new extension table for quilting?? Woohoo for cardboard, Xacto knives and contact paper!


Suzanne did the other quilt with a larger all-over daisy meander - love it!


Both of these are last quilts we finished for the Pregnancy Care Center sew along. Wouldn't it be sweet if they went to twin girls?!  

And I wanted to show the big stack of quilts, blankets, clothes, bibs, and burp cloths that everyone did for the sew along! More will be joining this stack as it comes in too. So happy we could do this!
