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.

Mom Gallahan's quilt
Mom Gallahan's quilt turned out to be one of my favorites. I found these great yellow and gray coordinating fabrics and then decided that I really needed something else to pop on this quilt, and the pink turned out awesome. Each strip is a "braided" pattern, which sounds really hard but isn't bad to do. This was free-motion quilted with a meadering leaf pattern. Mom Gallahan was very excited about this present, she told me that she'd never had a homemade quilt of her own before.
