This is one of the 17 quilts that my DD2 arranged for me in April. She'll be visiting again soon, and hopefully arranging more quilts for me!
"Lovegrass" is a type of grass, sometimes decorative, sometimes used to feed animals or prevent erosion. Who knew?!
The backing is pieced flannel strips.I have a new stack of baby quilts started. This is number 5.
My Quilt Info #2:
Pattern: 80 Acres from Cindy Hilfiger
Size: 26" x 26"
Batting: Quilters Dream Poly
Thread: Glide--White
With the 250th anniversary of the USA coming up, I wanted a new patriotic quilt for my front door. This one is quick and made from 2 1/2" strips. The pattern is for a baby, throw or bed size quilt. I simply made one block.

Nice finishes Nancy! I love the 80 Acres pattern, and your patriotic colors look wonderful. Susan's pinks are adorable! When your daughter arranges quilts, do you have a gigantic wall they stay up on, or do you take them down in row and block order, or take pictures, or what?
ReplyDeleteI have 2 covered insulation boards side by side for a design wall.. DD2 works on one, and I’m on the other marking the rows (I used numbered pins) and stacking them carefully in order. By the time I finish, she’s about done and we switch design walls. I don’t take photos—last time she did 17! They all came out correctly.
DeleteYour new door quilt is perfect, love the quilting design too. Fantastic that you are still making baby quilts!
ReplyDeleteOh, you have the perfect spot to display a small seasonal quilt! I can’t figure out why the quilt pattern is called 80 Acres, but it’s cute and festive! The baby quilts are nice too!
ReplyDelete80 Acres refers to her grandparents farm.
DeleteYour Patriotic heart is awesome! Love your panto that you chose for quilting. Wow. . .already you've finished five baby quilts? I like the grass panto and the baby quilt contains super sweet prints. Each one a terrific finish!
ReplyDeleteThe door hanging is a wonderful Semiquinecentennial commemoration. And, oh, baby--your latest quilts are beautiful, both fabric and quilting.
ReplyDeleteI love all three of these. The QoV quilting is just so perfect. But I think I'm going to have to make my own Woven. That's just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love your door-hanging, Nancy! It's perfect for this time of year. All three are pretty finishes!
ReplyDeleteNancy, you always make my quilts, 'come alive'! Thank YOU!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day, Nancy. I hope you are having a wonderful day. All of the quilts are gorgeous. The purples you used are so luscious and the little critter backing is so cute and I bet soft as can be. I adore your patriotic heart quilt and how clever to have it hanging on the front door! Susan's quilt is precious. So many pretty pinks and what a fun design. Your quilting is amazing! Have a blessed day. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteNicely done!! your flag wall hanging looks so great in your window!
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely quilts! I love the one by the door, which proudly says here is the home of a quilter ;) And here are some more gorgeous baby quilts, this one is adorable, I love these colors. It’s great that your daughter is coming back to help you sort through more fabric scraps! Happy 4th of July! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work and linking up. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI love your 99 Charms quilts! Do you place the squares randomly? Your patriotic quilt is so cute. I can see one for every season. Woven is a lovely pattern! Can't you just see a baby crawling around exploring all the "roads"?
ReplyDeleteLovely quilts!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great eye for putting together your charm quilts, and your daughter, too.
They always look great.
Your door quilt is a great nod to the 250th celebrations. Did you get out to any fireworks displays?
I like the way the woven quilt pattern works so well with a small number of fabrics. That is another lovely finish.
These are all gorgeous, Nancy. Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings!
