Hour Glass Child Quilt

I finished this quilt for a friend of mine who started piecing it for her first grandchild several years ago.  I finished piecing it by machine mostly.  I had to hand sew some of the corners so all the points would match better.  It is machine quilted. The quilt measures approx 38 in X 50 in.
 Here a close up that show some of the quilting.
 The backing is a wonderfully soft flannel.

Blue Windows Small Quilt

This is another small quilt I recently finished.  It measures 16 in square.  It is hand and machine pieced; machine quilted.  I intend to swap it as part of the ALQS round 10.
 This one hopefully shows some of the quilting.

Toes in the Water Small Quilt

I took the photo of my toes in water a few years back during a vacation to the gulf shores.  I printed it onto fabric and made this small quilt.  It  measures 16 in square. It is machine pieced.  While I machine quilted along the diagonal thin strips, it is mostly hand quilted with small circles (bubbles).
Here you can see some of the quilted circles and the binding which I managed to line up with one of the diagonal strips.
