Long Beach Quilt Festival & Finished Projects

John, Sandy & I attended the Long Beach Quilt Festival yesterday. We had a good time and I bought some fun projects to do in the next few months. I bought a quilt kit at the 'Square in a Square' booth, a purse pattern, and fabric to make 3 purses.

Sandy made this stunning quilt.
I quilted it for her using a Herky, Jerky design.

I have been working on this quilt for my friend Toni. She loves the beach. When she saw the pattern, she said she had to have one. It has taken me awhile to get it done for her but it is finally finished.

Gifts from the Sea

Pattern by Verna Mosquera

The next quilt I started with my friend Anna. She had picked out this pattern a few years ago. I said I would like to make one so a few weeks ago we finally got together and started making our quilts. I wonder if Anna has finished her quilt.

And finally, I made another 'Letty's Bag' in black & white since that's what I usually wear.

Mama Made a Brand New Bag!

I found a pattern I loved at the 'Quilt Cupboard' in Garden Grove. The pattern is called "Letty's Bag" by Robin Gallagher. It took me a day to make it. Once I started working on it I couldn't stop. It has so much room in it and I love all the pockets. Think I will take it to the Long Beach Quilt Festival this coming Friday. Can't wait!

Maude

Here's Maude.... isn't she darling? The pattern is from the Holiday Redwork CD by 'The Stitch Connection'. I can't wait to do more.

Mini Sweetheart Quilt

I used the embroidery machine to make the hearts for this quilt. I think it's so sweet so I'm calling it the 'Mini Sweetheart Quilt'.
