But this will have to wait. I've been commissioned to make two baby quilts for twin girls due early in April. I've decided that these quilts will have to take priority because twins usually arrive early. Plus, I'm excited to be able to design my first quilt. Now I usually don't follow quilt patterns. I've resized patterns, but I've never started from scratch.
With these quilts, I'm starting from scratch. It was neat to go from drawing to draft. This morning I went to the local quilt shop to pick out fabric.
So this is my goal for February. I need to finish two baby quilt tops. Hopefully, I will complete them too. It's a short month, though, so I won't push it.

ReplyDeleteYes, it is fun making quilts for babies! Thank you for stopping by.
DeleteYour designs are great! You'll have fun with these! I'm working on a pair of commissions, too, but not quite as fun. Baby quilts are the best.

DeleteReally like your hugs and kisses top - such a great balance of colour, solids and patterns. It's just a delight. The fabrics for the twin quilts look like fun too! Look forward to seeing the results.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it! They will be sooo cute. Fun to make something from design to finish. Love the hugs and kisses.
ReplyDeleteOnce you start making quilts without patterns.. you never go back!! :D
