Riley Blake baby quilt

I was asked to make a quilt for a new baby using Riley Blake's "Daisy Cottage" line.  We mixed in with Riley Blake chevrons (zig zag!) also by request, and some pretties from my stash (my favorite - Alexander Henry's keys, which unfortunately you can't see as it's folded down the other side of the maple branch, and others whose names I have long forgotten).
Baby quilt for Rowan

It was so quick and fun to make!

baby quilt - back

The back, with a favorite gift my niece presented for my baby, a handmade mobile from Tanzania.   The pink is 1930s Pink by Moda's Bella Solids.  This is the first I've used and noticed absolutely no difference in quality from Kona solids.  I may begin buying Bella solids because my LQS doesn't carry many Konas, I just hope I don't get utterly confused which is what when it's time to re-order!

Pumpkin patch

We brought the girls along

Finished a work in progress, this little Halloween quilt for my mom. Made with Tula Pink's Nightshade collection, and some scraps from my stash.  I overbought so I could make one for me, though that may not be ready until next Halloween! It's time to think Christmas, surely?

Living in the country has it's perks; this little farm is right down the road. If you look carefully, you may find the spot I lost my keys two years ago.
