I have watched my mom quilt over the years. I thought wow I can't wait to get one of those quilts they are so beautiful. Then when I married Eric I got a cute little grandma that is a fabulous quilter. I love the quilts that she has given to us. This September my sister in law said that she wanted to learn to quilt and wanted my sister, my mom and myself to do it with her. OK!! I finally have the inspiration or push that I needed so, I pieced together my first two quilt tops. One is for Alex and the other is Sidney's. I think they turned out pretty good for a first try, but now I am addicted. I bought fabric for a cute patriot quilt and can't wait to get started. Also over the past couple of weeks I made a few blankets for Christmas gifts a total of 7 all together.
Alex's
Sidney's
Grandpa's- Air Force Fabric
Braydon's-- Baseball Fabric
Hunter's-- Air Plane Fabric
Whitney's- I love the star fabric.
This little Christmas Tree is to hold Christmas Cards. I made one for myself and the other for my sister.
Thanks for all the inspiration. There are so many of the sisters in our ward that make beautiful quilts. I hope I can grow up and be just like them.

Wow! What a good addiction to get. Well, maybe. Could be expensive. Now I understand. I get the whole addiction to creating something useful. I love it. I am working on some of those kinds of things. But it is so good to hear from you! I will be better about keeping in touch.
I love all of the other quilts you have made!!! I absolutely love mine!!! Alex and I seriously wrap up in it every single night before bed!!! Thanks!!!
Muuwwwwaaaaa! I love quilting! Half the fun is bonding with others of like attraction. You feel like a whole new woman when you walk out of a fabric store. Am I right?
Great job! All those quilts look amazing! I wish i knew how to sew, then maybe I'd take on quilting!
Finally, I am so happy to hear you are quilting. You live in the perfect ward for moral support. Love the quilts.
