By request - Biirdly consignments

In addition to the stuff done with/for Julie, I've sold a couple of other baby quilts. The first was to a coworker as a baby gift for a cousin.

The second was a direct result of wearing/bringing the purse I made into J.O.B. #2 on aqn off day to pick up a couple of things. The woman saw it and we started chatting. Turns out she had a baby shower to go to a few days later. Fortunately I'd been playing with turning a full sized quilt pattern into a baby sized quilt. I ended up with 4 (FOUR!!) tops from the blocks I ended up with. Talk about things so not going in the right direction. :) When I quilted it, I did a stitch in the ditch around the outside of the colored shapes but not between the colors. The back looked really cute with that quilting. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of anything after the pieced top. But I have 3 more to work with! :)

Fiinally - Kimono Topper

Finally. A bunch of blocks that I paper pieced eons ago. They were enlarged versions of a block I used in a consignment quilt. I finally put them all together and created a table topper - just the top - out of them. That sat for a while. I pulled it back out not too long ago and finally got it quilted and bound. My free motion quilting leaves a LOT to be desired (I definitely need more practice) but it didn't come out half bad.

To go with this, the hubby and I have been picking up some table ware to go with it - chopsticks and holder, mats, rice bowls, small dim sum plates, etc. It'll make a good gift for someone some day.
