Another Quilt Top

I recently completed another quilt top.  I am selling it to a friend in town.  

I'm actually glad as I didn't need another quilt!  

This blog is basically becoming a record of my quilts.  It's okay with me.  At least I have a photo of them!

This first quilt I bought fabric for quite a while ago.  Afterwards, I realized that I didn't like red/white/blue quilts.  So, I never made it.  I had someone in town, whom I've sold quilt tops to in the past, ask if I had any for sale.  I didn't have one made, as I haven't sewn a lot this past year, but I knew immediately that this would be the quilt for her.  It was!  She loved it.  

This quilt is a Tumbler Quilt.  It was very easy to make, easier than I had expected!  I was inspired by Sebrina Brown, the 11 year old whom I have taught at quilt camp the past two years.  She made a tumbler quilt last May.  It turned out so cute that I decided that I would make one as well.  I had lots of fabrics around and thus created this quilt.  

Stained Glass Quilt Top

I recently completed this Stained Glass Quilt Top and posted it on Etsy.  My shop receives a lot of hits when I have a Stained Glass Quilt listed.  It was only out there about three weeks and it sold.  I am so happy!

Don't you like how the sunshine is creating that stained glass affect?!?

I have decided to close my Etsy shop for a season.  I don't know how long that will be.  Maybe a season will equal 'forever'.  I don't know.  I still have items that I want to sell.  Maybe I'll take these quilt tops over to Kathleen's shop and see if I could sell them over there.  I am ready to have the tops sold and out of my home.  I like sewing, but I don't need all of these quilts!

Quilt Tops I've Made and Sold

I just like to keep a record of the quilt tops that I make to sell. 

Here are a few that are listed on Etsy, have sold, or will be listed shortly.

Probably my least favorite quilt top.  It has been listed a couple of times, but hasn't sold.  I think it is because it wouldn't even fit on a twin size bed.  It is more of a large lap size quilt top. 

Someday I will have it out of my inventory!

I call this quilt top Aimee's Garden.  The light pastels are darling.  It is a fund quilt top!

A brown orchid Irish Chain.  I loved the floral fabric and have just been

waiting to find the right pattern.  The Irish Chain worked!

This pink and green Irish Chain is darling.  I love the way it turned out.  Sometimes, pictures don't do the quilt justice.  This is one of those times.

Pink & Yellow Quilt.  This turned out beautiful and I love the fabric line. 

I'm making a second quilt that I will list on Etsy as well.

Quilt Tops

Recently I made a couple of quilt top, 51 x 72.  They would be more for the bottom of a child’s bed.  Anyway, I sold both of them on Etsy.  I have to tell you, I think they turned out darling. 

At a glance, they probably both look the same, but this first one has a dark/light color scheme.  Example:  Hot Pink and then a softer hot pink, Bright Lime green, then a softer lime green.  Of the two quilt tops, this one is my favorite, but both are darling and I’ll probably make another with the remainder of my leftover scraps.  Yes, these two quilts were made with my scraps!!!

The second quilt top is below.  Can you see a difference between the two quilts?

The pattern is a variation of one that I found on line.  I quite like the look of this quilt.  I’m trying to decide if I want to make one for me to keep!!!

Quilt Tops

I’ve sold a couple of quilt tops lately.  Even though I am not keeping these, I still like to take pictures and keep a record of items I have made.

 

The first top I named “Oregon Coast”.  It reminded me of the colors of the coast when we visited last summer.  This quilt measures 74 x 90.

 

The second quilt I titled “Goin’ Camping, II”  I had scraps left over from a previous quilt of the same name and pieced together this brick looking quilt. It goes together so quickly that it is worth the time and effort I take to make and sell it.  It measured 62 x 84.

I still enjoy selling items on Etsy, although I haven’t been a diligent in recent months.  Maybe things will change after Christmas. 

Completed Scrappy Quilt

I finished binding this quilt last week.  I love the scrappy look and flying geese.  I’m actually going to make another one, just because!

Quilt Tops

I’ve been making quilt tops and selling them on Etsy.  I haven’t been very good about keeping a record of what I’ve been making, so I’m loading several of the pictures I have onto the blog…   It may be a little boring to you, so don’t feel that you need to view this!
