[scrapquiltfont.jpg] [scrapquiltback.jpg]" From last spring until early December, 2006, I was working on a "Greatest Hits" scrap project, a full bed-sized bargello quilt. It was made almost entirely (except for the batting) out of scraps from previous projects, arranged in a rainbow pattern. The back is also pieced, with a rail fence pattern. It's fun to remember all the past quilts I did which are represented in this one project.

[crayonsquares.jpg] [crayonsquaresback.jpg] Made for Philip Ezra, born Oct. 4, 2006, in December, 2006. The quilt is 41"x36", and the backing (second picture) is a very soft fleece.

[crayontriangles.jpg] [crayontrianglesback.jpg] Made in December, 2006, for Geneva, born Dec. 19, 2006. This quilt is 33.5"x47", with a dark purple fleece backing.

[pinwheels.jpg] [pinwheels_back.jpg] This was finished in early February, 2007. It's a 40"x31" baby quilt, with a bright pinwheel top, and a crayon-fleece backing, and a navy satin binding. This was made on commission, although all design choices were made by me.

[squares.jpg] [squares_back.jpg] Finished mid February, 2007, this is another commissioned baby quilt. It's 41"x46", with a fleece backing (see second picture) and a navy satin binding. It turned out much better than I'd thought it would, and I'm rather pleased with the fleece design.

[carquiltdinos.jpg] [carquiltpillow.jpg] Made in February, 2007 for my fiancé. This is a scrap fleece car quilt, 33"x50", which folds up into a 13"x17" pillow. The back of the quilt is also scrap pieced together, and you can see the back of the pillow (same as the front) on it, which makes a nice pocket, too. It's very soft and comfy and warm.
