The yellows and the bee fabric came from the Edna Stash last year. The gray and orange print was a remnant from Joann's before they closed. Sigh. 

 

Always love a good four patch with a fun print. 

 

Batiks

A friend gave me a stack of very pretty batiks. Not sure I used them as well as I could have. 

 

School Colors

When in doubt, it's hard to go wrong with my school colors or OSU colors for baby quilts. 

 

Quilts I sewed last summer...

 but didn't quilt until December, and then generally forgot to photograph. I've given away about eight that I forgot to take pictures of. Oh, well. Do love this zig zag pattern. 

Related fabrics.

Made a number of quilt tops over the summer and finished them over winter break, but forgot to take pictures, because there was so much snow. 

A friend gave me a packet of these related fabrics, and they seemed like they should stay together. 

This is going to a teacher at school. 

Edna's Magnum Opus

Remember Edna and her amazing stash? This quilt is made up of the tiniest pieces of fabric, many of the patterns I have used! I backed it with some perfectly good but slightly faded 1990s blue fabric from the thrift store. This wasn't well ironed, but I thought the blocks were a uniform size... until they weren't. I picked out more quilting stitches from this one until I realized that there were times when Edna just went completely off the rails and there was just no consistency to guide my stitches. We have an art teacher who will enjoy this as a lap quilt. It didn't feel good enough to go to a baby.
