This is my first finished quilt for the year....terrible I know...it is already March!! This will be going to M and M's new baby....still no name. Hope they like it!! He has a name....Nathaniel Newton M******....so cute

A Quilt Sandwich!! It's been ages since I made one...I hate working out how to back the quilts...I don't mind the quilting part...but the 'finding and making the backing big enough' part makes me hesitate every time. I decided I better do something though cause Meg is due any day....well she has probably already had bub but she is a slacker with the phone call....anyway she didn't find out what she was having in advance so I need to be ready with either a boy or girl quilt... the tops are done for both but still need to be quilted...I will be visiting in about 6 weeks...so I better get a move on!!

After Emma suggested it I thought more about using black as the sashings....I'm so glad I did...THANKS EMMA!!!... so now I have another quilt top done to add to the list to be quilted...will have to find some more wadding on special somewhere! My favourite squares...how cute are those puppies!

I've never really been a big fan of 'I spy' quilts...not sure why really just 'too' random or busy for my liking...but after yesterdays quiting disaster...My first ever!!!.... I decided to use the charm squares I bought when I first started quilting, from Logan's Patchwork, I think it was. I was never sure quite what to do with them but here they are....using the simple Disappearing 9-patch pattern...squares sewn together.... cut up....too busy! ...I think I will put yellow sashings around the sqaures...??
