Pat's Quilts
New Baby Quilt





These little creatures 
captured me recently 
with the discovery
 at my local Joann's 

This nursery fabric panel is titled:
Susan Winget Tiny Creatures Panel






Layering it along with a light w/ soft batting 
and then adding for the back a printed flannel
 titled sugar coral floral , formed this quick quilt,
Once machine stitched around all the creatures 
and patterns to sew all layers together.





Also used the back flannel print to bind.




Rather pleased how it turned out 
and with how well this 
quilt came together as to gift.




Think I maybe planning another panel quilt
 in the nearing future for more enjoyment!

My latest Quilt

Been busy finishing up with a new baby quilt this weekend. I decided 2 weeks ago, to make another Puff/biscuit/pillow quilt.  As soon as I located and purchased fabric for the puffs, I was right on it.  And to my luck, I already had a bag of filling and plenty of muslin for the backside to make the pillowing puffs. All I needed was the rainbow of pastel fabrics.  For this quilt, color choices included yellow and purple  with a few coordinating prints with hints of pink  after all, this is to be made for a newborn baby girl just born last week! I'm almost done today  and rather excited for it to be soon gifted.  However first, wanted to organize my journal progresses and edit my notes.  That made me begin to wonder, how many quilters really do journal their progresses  with notes, and as one is working on a project or quilt. I began to note how much better my work was flowing and as I kept up on my notes.  It made me focus a lot more, and  in

Project Baby Quilt Part 2: Group, Press, Cut, Regroup Play

Group- press-cut-regroup Today began the process grouping fabrics into a color palette. I divided the color into 3 groups. Green , pink & yellow.  Pressed each fabric piece by color group , and cut 2 strips each -measuring 2.5 in width from each fabric  A total of 18 strips when completed.     Green Strips The tips below were helpful to keep in mind as I ironed today and to cut, sew & pressed the sewn seams. Press each seam : Often reminded to press seams as sewn . And e ven more important when piecing a quilt!  I lightly "press" set each seam. This manner achieved by pressing & for best results and not necessarily as what is referred to as "ironing .   Press technique explained :  http://sewmamasew.com/blog View this video for more pressing tips : More tips : I also found helpful : pressing all seams in same direction.
