Oh how much fun! It's time to share and oogle at everyone's Quilt Doodle BOM 2013 projects! Shhh mine isn't quilted yet. It's ok if you don't have your quilt top quilted... it'll still be fun to see everyone's progress. I am looking forward to a few days of hopping around and seeing some BOM Quilts. I hope that you enjoy them too. At the end of the hop, I have some fun prizes to give away. (Wilson's favorite part of a hop, mine too!) Prizes can be won by leaving sweet comments for everyone and also participating in the hop by posting. Today I am hosting a couple of sweet ladies and their awesome quilts...
Ann
"This quilt started as a learning project for 2013. I purchased inexpensive fat quarters at Tuesday Morning with the thought if I made errors it wouldn't be that costly. Little did I know that as the months went along I was enjoying the challenge of making these little finds work. My favorite block was the paper pieced. Had my head spinning for a couple of days but loved how it finally went together. As you can see I switched out two blocks from the original pattern. As I was going along I made additional blocks as "practice" and found the colors I had taken from my stash worked better than the originals. Plan to use those two blocks on the back.
Each month I looked forward to the new block and have to admit I am very happy with this quilt. The borders tied things together and made it more respectable. Thank you for your part and I am started on 2014 Doodle Design. " |

Kathy
Kathy is a special quilter, she's my mom. She didn't only do one block a month but she did two! Mom got one quilt put together and is currently working on putting the second one together. (In fact I bet it is all sewn together now) Her quilts turned out so bright and cheerful! I really like the green mixed with the brown/tan. It's a neat combination. I love how they turned out. I know she wasn't really fond of doing the paper piecing block. The seam ripper and her became good friends while she worked on that block, but she was a real trooper and got two paper pieced blocks done that month. So here are Kathy's Quilt Doodle BOM 2013 results....

Anne's quilt is definitely bright and cheery. I especially like the Grandma's Plate block.
ReplyDelete2 blocks a month is more than I usually accomplish. The quilt is beautiful!
