Quilt #2

So the U of U theme seemed to be a big hit.  I decided to make quilt #2, still U themed, for my brother and his wife for Christmas.  They had a couple of requirements.  The first being it needed a pattern and second less polka dots.  

 This is right before I started tying it.

 Me just tying away in my grandma's basement.

The finished product!

I think she liked it!

Quilt #1

My first quilt was a gift for a friend. I decided that I wanted to make it as a Christmas present to give to her.  I tried to pick out fabrics that she would love, and decided on a Utah Utes theme.   She loves the Utah Utes and polka dots, so how could I go wrong?

This picture is me trying to figure out how to lay out the quilt.  I didn't really have a plan going into it, which would have been more helpful.  The quilt doesn't have a pattern, but I actually really like it that way! 

(sorry, bad picture)

On the quilting frames...

All finished tying it.  I just realized I didn't get a finished project picture. I'm sure you get the idea though.  :) 

I quite like how it turned out. Not bad for a first try, huh?
