Berenstain Bears - UFO Done!

Beam another one up! 
Another UFO is now able to be snuggled under.

Here's a picture of the Berenstain Bears quilt hot off the machine.  It's not the best quilting job ever, but the kiddo wanted this quilt ASAP. Once I got the tension issues fixed up which took about an hour or so I was good to go!


 


I'll have to get a good picture of it after the kiddo wakes up tomorrow.  Rarely do I do a total machine binding (usually I hand stitch on the back) but kiddo wanted this quilt so much I got it done as fast as I could by doing the entire binding by machine.  It went really quickly and it's not perfect but it's done and kiddo loves it, so that means it's ok with me.

A Donating I Will Go

Made these gorgeous quilts for a raffle. All proceeds go to a scholarship for needy students.Hope they get well received.
 
It's about 50"x50".  I had such fun quilting it and making it.

 

And a close up of the quilting.  In the center points there's a ships wheel, and the stars each have an anchor. I quilted a couple other motifs in the cream squares.

 

This other quilt was so quick and easy to make. Plus, I think it shows off the fabrics pretty well.  I didn't do any fancy stitching in it, just some stippling.


**Edited - one of my students won this one!! :) ** She loves it!



A huge thank you to Mary Quilts for the free pattern for the strippie quilt. Very fun, very easy.

Try Something New - Miniature Complete!! Week 40

And this one is done. :) I tried a NEW pattern that I made. :) I figure it counts. This mini measures 8"x8". And if the NEW pattern doesn't count, I tried Micro Stippling for the first time. I had so much fun.

Here it is with the Micro Stippling:


This is it fused to the background:


And here it is as a quilt sandwich.
