A Finish! Wonky Japanese Squares


It's finally done! The commission quilt for Amber which is a copy of this one where I used Heather Ross fabrics. On this one Amber chose a bunch of Japanese and organic fabrics. I like how it turned out! It's unisex, as her sister doesn't know the sex of the baby yet. Do you likee? Click any photo to see it large!


I just quilted around all the squares inside and outside.


And put little surprise faces in the cornerstones.


Oh! Here's the back!





Edited April 2010: Here is a photo of the recipient, John William, with his new quilt!
Enjoy!

Three blocks for back.


Amber, you can choose up to five blocks that you dislike and give suggestions for colors/styles to replace them. Also, you can switch placement of blocks around if something is bothering you about how they look. Otherwise, this is how I will sew the quilt together!

More Sneaks and a Resolution

Hi again! Happy new year! A few more wonky square sneaks for you of my commission quilt. Which one do you like the best?















I like to be very traditional around Christmas and New Years, so I will make the same resolution I've made every year since highschool. I'm sure you all know the mantra - eat better, exercise more, blah blah blah. Same story every year! Hasn't happened yet (and i'm 38), but ya never know! This could be the year! Hope springs eternal in the human breast, so off I go, into the arms of Jillian Michaels. I'll let you know if i've lost anything on February 1st.
