Up for air

That's how I feel, like I'm coming up for air and just a quick one. I know that I haven't posted in awhile but this past week I was trying to get so much done. College Girl even asked if I was wearing my SUPER MOM undies!

Three of the baby quilts were delivered at church on Sunday. Enjoy this photo of all the pretty bindings;


The first one is the Lydia quilt. Pattern is Allison at Cluck Cluck Sew's Modern Irish Chain. I LOVED making this quilt and I can't wait to make my next one. All prints are scraps from my stash,including Amy Butler,Heather Bailey, Moda, Sandi Henderson. The backing was a piece leftover from the quilt-along quilt I made last summer!

Scrappy binding;

(thanks for that input, Rene!)

A closer view;



Yes, I know the pictures are not well lit. We've had rain, rain and more rain here. GREAT quilting weather. Great weather to avoid doing the weeding and planting outside. Stinky weather for taking pictures of quilts.

A view of the entire quilt;


This is a close-up of the Megan quilt;


Tutorial by Natalia of Piece N Quilt. Fabric is Moda's Birdie, the binding is not from the Birdie line but I don't remember what it was. I forgot to put the flower appliques on.


A close up of the Patience quilt;

Tutorial was found at Sew,Mama,Sew! and had been submitted by Elizabeth of Oh,Fransson!
Fabric is Moda's Sleepytime and some prints I found to match at JoAnn's. The entire quilt;


We came home from church, ate lunch, and then I got busy with the next baby quilt.

Stay tuned!

Praise - for all the lovely little babies that have been born into our church family this year. Five precious little girls.

Prayers - for the safe delivery of the sixth baby - a boy, that will most likely be born on Friday, the 11th. The mother is in labor and has a C-section scheduled.
