I started this quilt about 4 years ago.  I had pieced it, pinned it, and put it away.  I was in transition for a few years and it was in storage for 3 yrs before I actually decided to take it out and do something with it.  All fabrics are from my stash (scrappy).  Quilted on a HSM (as I normally do).  Enjoy!

2016 BOM

This is a quilt from a free online class from www.craftsy.com.  This is the 2016 BOM.  Those piano keys and the pinwheels were quite challenging, but I loved every minute of it.  This quilt took me outside of my comfort zone and made me do techniques that I do not like.....i.e. applique.  It was fun.

In the Mix

This quilt is called "In the mix".  The reason I named it this is because all of these blocks were orphan blocks.  They were made up just because or left over from other quilts.  They have absolutely nothing to do with each other, however, I think they go together nicely with the sashing and border.  I think this is a great way to use up scraps and old blocks that you would never put in a quilt.  Try it!  I guarantee that you will be pleased with the results.  I am!

Sampler 2012

This is a lap sized sampler.  This is a smaller version of the original sampler which has 20 blocks.  Since this quilt was for a little girl, I decided to use only 12 of them.  This pattern originally came about from an online class I took at www.craftsy.com in 2012 and it was FREE!!  There is also a great class by Leah Day that shows you how to quilt this sampler but that will cost ya'...not much though.  This is my version and my little cuz loved it!  I gave it to her on yesterday for her birthday.
