Pile of baby clothes projects (minus brown gingham, that is not for baby clothes)
Currently making:
- double-gauze yellow/white/grey/blue HST full-sized quilt; planning to use no-binding technique & possibly quilt with hand weight fabric, planning to use Robert Kaufman Essex Linen on back
- Children At Play balloon bunny crib-sized quilt; another opportunity to practice my appliqué, may do some FMQ on it
- You Are My Sunshine grey & white crib-sized quilt; made this to practice my appliqué, has a minky back (awesome), currently stalled because I am attempting to hand bind it & I hate sewing by hand
Have started cutting:
- double-gauze yellow/pink/white small blanket; could be other good option for testing quilting with a heavy weight thread
- matching twin quilts- giraffe & hippo rainbow quilts like bitty baby's crib quilt
- Heather Ross Briar Rose rainbow quilt for me; planning to make this pattern full-size & make it more in the style of Made by Rae's original Heather Ross Rainbow Quilt & plan to use up all fabrics in the line, not just 17, & will change layout slightly & & & . . . more posts on this coming soon. Feel free to join me for world's slowest quilt-a-long. You'll need 1/2 yard of each fabric + backing. I think it will be a large full-size when finished.
- Heather Ross Briar Rose big girl quilt for my niece; will be approx twin-sized, not sure if I will make another rainbow quilt or some other pattern, make mix in some white or these super pretty coordinating solids
- queen sized Liberty snowball quilt; this is one of those quilts that I think will take me 10 years! I have collected a ton of rainbow Liberty pieces & want to make a quilt with a rainbow/ombré pattern around white snowballs (started this long before Heather Ross rainbow quilt came on my radar) a queen-size quilt is a MAJOR undertaking for me & I will probably have to have it professionally quilted
- blue & yellow nautical (Storyboek) quilt; I think this will be a zigzag quilt using the nonHST technique
- blue/grey/white mod boy's quilt; lots of Japanese imports, may use HST set on point?
- low volume quilt inspired by Red Pepper Quilts; may try using double HST in this quilt? so squares will be made out of 4 triangles
- Aneela Hoey A Walk in the Woods pinwheels quilt
Things I want to make but haven't necessarily bought for yet:
- gingham quilt; I am hoarding some Riley Blake large gingham for the back of this, Lurve, Gah, so good
- herringbone quilt; I haven't seen one exactly like what I want & I keep putting this pattern off b/c it seems like it wastes a lot of fabric
- lots of ombré things with white backgrounds; maybe I will make a rainbow ombré quilt with white for my niece's Briar Rose quilt
