Bunnies everywhere

I saw a pattern for a super cute bunny quilt.  It was applique and I've never done applique, so I decided to try it out since they were all relatively big pieces.  Now, I'm not one for a lot of hand-sewing.  I don't even hand-sew my bindings.  So I machine-stitched around the appliqued pieces.  I think they turned out so cute.  The same friend who bought a St. Patty's Day table runner asked me to do an Easter one for her as well, so I did bunnies and Easter eggs on it.  I made two bunny quilts, one for me and one for my Mom.  On mine and the table runner, the quilting pattern was meandering with some bunnies thrown in randomly.  My mom's is swirls with bunnies thrown in.  I'm not quite done with hers yet, but should be sometime tomorrow.




St. Patricks Day!

My Mom bought me a kit to do an Irish Chain table runner.  It came with St. Patrick's Day fabric, so its very appropriate for March.  A friend saw it and paid me to do one for her too.  (Sorry the pictures aren't great.)

Marcey's quilt

For Marcey, I did a Split Rail pattern, I intended to put the dark color on one end to create the typical steps and forgot when I sewed the strips together.  That's okay, it still looked awesome.  I free-motion quilted the swirls down each row of this quilt.
