Then and Now Linky party.

Hello, I am joining in on the the linky party hostessed  by Leanne The Devoted Quilter. This is to show off how far you have come from the first time you started quilting.

       
                                                       


It is rather fun to look back upon you work to see where you were an where you are now. I do wonder, where I am headed in a year from now or even longer. 

Here is one of my first quilts.
Half Square Triangle Heart Quilt

As cute as it looks in the photo....it is a nightmare, Some of the seams are coming apart...held together by the quilting, the binding needs to be fixed some raw edges showing. This was my very first quilt. I had not mastered the 1/4 inch seam. I believe this was a tutorial over at Modern Handcraft.

Jelly Race-

                                   I paid for someone to put the binding on this one, and  believe I  still needed to  master that 1/4 inch seam. LOL!

Dog Gone Cute-

I got it! That 1/4 in seam will no longer cause me an issue! I remember having so much fun finding all the different fabrics for this one.
Ribbn Star-

-

This ribbon  star quilt turned out so pretty, not the biggest fan of sewing with batiks, I do love the colors and very please with how all this went together.

Hope Chest-

I love this quilt and use it daily on my couch, it is snuggly and warm and the pattern makes me very happy. Yet I had trouble with piecing the backing on this one.  I cut it all worng and had to sew it back together and re-cut.

Giraffe family-

This was a baby gift and I was so happy with how this turned out.

Baby Fox-
              
Another baby gift. Super please with how this turned out and I put this together in about a week. I even gave a try at applique with the glasses, a flange binding as well and quilted by me.


Paper piecing quilts!

 Small table runner.

Such a simple little pattern, but the start of my paper piecing.

Here is a small quilt I started paper piecing

Elephant. 

I made this for my son's girlfriend, a very challenging pattern for me.

Woodland QA-

Tiny tiny pieces!


Guinness- 
 
 This was a commissioned pattern that I sewed of my favorite guy! 21 sections, and 12 different fabrics. 

There were a bunch in between the ones I am showcasing for the linky party. These are just some of my highlights.
