Boy oh boy seems fall just crept up on me. I had a great summer though! Playing with my minions and of course quilting. The minions seem very interested in quilting so I let them sew whenever I can. I am posting some of the quilts I worked on over the summer right up until yesterday lol. 
Below is the plus quilt I made as a quilt along the pattern is from Jelli Quilts but I supersized the baby quilt and made it 50x60" every fabric is from my stash. I love how it turned out and can't wait to have it long armed 
 

 This baby swoon is my fave. I love how it turned out. I love ombre fabric so much. I can't wait for the backing to come in so I can quilt it




 This sweet feminine baby swoon will be the perfect addition to a little girls room. It is just so delicate and pretty




I love heart quilts . They are just gorgeous, this one is 45x45 perfect for cuddling with.


I jumped on the hedgehog bandwagon. I started with this mini and have now made 5 of them, they are just too cute 


The arrow quilt. Oh how I love thee. Using graded colours in Kona cotton this turned out beautiful. This is a throw size, I made it in queen size first lol



I love how this baby boy quilt turned out just so soft and elegant 

I started this quilt 2 years ago, just brought it back out to try to finish. Got 2 more rows on it with 2 more to go before it's done 

I love this Raspberry kiss mini quilt I made for a swap. I think I need to make a bigger one for me. 


This teeny tiny pineapple mini measures only 10.5" I love how cute it is 


Go big or go home, I started my first arrow quilt as a queen size and love it,,,,,, 

Finally got the top done for one Minion's Cheistmas present now to start the next 

Made myself a giant starburst in another colorsay. It's off bring long armed now 


My mom's quilt is back from being long armed and looks amazing! 




Charlotte's Irish chain was her birthday present 


Coop's hourglass was for his birthday 


This is the beginning of the next birthday present lol

Well today, is a quiet day, ok well quiet moment. Mr Minion had one surgery today, one minion is at school the other with her Nonna. I thought I would pop on to share some of the quilts I made earlier this year. I am working on a bunch of projects right now, finishing a commissioned baby quilt and teachers gifts. I will post pics of those as they are done. lately I have been working on my WIP's. As quilters we have way too many of these as we often start a new project long before the last one is even close to completion. I have managed though to finish 2 very large projects that I started months ago. This is my supernova quilt (and my puggle) I had to stand way up my stairs to get this pic as this is a huge queen size quilt. I was first inspired to make this one I saw a pic on Instagram in these colours, it was a block made for a charity quilt and I fell in love. I do love a big block quilt though they do still take time. The pattern is from  Freshly Pieced  and I have mad...
Well here it is 😃 the last day of 2014. Still trying to finish some outstanding projects before the new year begins. Ok ok yeah I did decide on like Dec 27th to make a baby quilt I really didn't need to make just wanted to. I have one more quilt top to finish piecing and some backing to prep but that's it for 2014 then :) This first one is the baby quilt I just had to make. I love it! It features the gorgeous Miss Kate line from Thimble Blossoms by Bonnie and Camille. It's just so happy 😃  This 2nd one I started oh my goodness back in March 2014 I think. It was only missing the borders so I added them and now this quilt top is done 😃 it's for my son I love it! It features the Vintage Verona line  from Riley Blake. So today I finish one more quilt top and then piece the backing for my mom's quilt and then, well, that's a wrap. Everything else will have to wait for 2015. Can you believe I already have a to do list for January lol. Anyone else trying t...
So a few weeks ago my hubby (mr. Minion) mentioned to me that while I have made a lot of quilts he himself has never received one. What's this you say? Ok well let me rectify that situation my honey. So I know Mr Minion is a huge fan of Star Wars so Boom! Idea received. Hubby will be getting this quilt (once finished) in time for Christmas In this pic it is still missing the last 2 rows but they are on now and the quilt top is done!! He will be so surprised! The pattern is from  Iron Violet Designs  I am also so happy I found the perfect backing for it as fast as I did. I usually agonize over finding the perfect backing but I found this within a few days of finishing the top and got it ordered 😃
