Nona's quilt, lap size (SewingBAG)

This was another memory quilt for one of my sewing clients. "Nona" had a fantastic wardrobe, and many children and grandchildren who wanted this cozy way to remember her. A whole series of quilts was made from this selection of clothing, so a wider sashing was used to make the clothing items we had to work worth go farther. This one had some embroidered squares stating clearly who the quilt was made to honor.

Although this one was a "lap size" quilt, it was still quite generous. Each in this series was hand tied with a silky periwinkle yarn that matched the sashing fabric, and used polyester batting (likely 6 oz for this one.)

Lilia's quilt

Another InterVarsity college Bible study family baby quilt! Pretty standard - 10x14 grid of 4" denim squares with a few of the backing fleece throw in for sparkle. Hand tied at every other interval, polyester batting.

The fleece fabric for the backing was one of our all-time favorites. I wish we'd gotten the whole bolt of it.

Fun to have our own little one (Owen!) helping us with the quilt.

Kaitlin's lap quilt

After making a larger bed-size quilt for Zach when he was born, we decided to make a little lap-size one for Kaitlin in a pretty purple with some neat embroidered jeans as accents. A few pockets make for convenient places to keep a few things while she snuggles up!

The pieces in this one were of a different than usual size - I don't remember what, but it looks like 3" and 2" combination, some serged seams out, and some not. The backing was fleece, and I don't remember what we did for batting.

Peter's quilt

This one was for one of the families in our college Bible study group. Peter and Owen ended up being very close in age.

10x14 grid of 4" denim squares. 4 oz polyester batting, hand tied, machine pieced.

Oliver's quilt

The other family in our Bradley class were Packer fans. We serged this one with green going one way and yellow (gold?) the other. 4oz polyester batting, machine pieced, hand tied.

Hayden's quilt

Made for one of the two other families in our Bradley child birth class - Hayden's quilt is a standard 10x14 grid of 4" squares, with polyester batting (4 oz), and fleece backing. We tied at every other intersection. No serging.

Isaiah's quilt

Chele said she didn't want us to have to go to all the work of making a denim quilt when she had her second child, so we just made a fleece-on-fleece quilt instead! Using scraps left over from other projects, we pieced together 4" (finished size) squares, and incorporated a fun print that we had only a little bit left of by making composite squares out of 2" (finished size) prints and solids. We backed it with fleece and fringed the edges, no batting. No tying, either, if I remember correctly.
