#IGQuiltfest

-
This past month I participated in the #IGQuiltfest hosted by Amy's Creative Side.  I've recently begun digging deeper into the Instagram quilt world. I've often looked to Instagram for inspiration, but haven't for advice. When I decided to participate I was just going to try to do as many days as I could, I only missed a few, but didn't make it everyday!


 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
AND....on day 29 I got featured in the daily round up! I was probably more excited about this than I should have been, but it was a "That's me!" moment!

 
I'm glad that I jumped in and I'm going to be more active with my quilty fun. So if you want to follow me go ahead! www.instagram.com/fussycutting

Nugget!

So most of you know my sister had a baby this past year. Little Nugget arrived at the end of July. Well I started making his quilt in....well lets see January.....It took just a little bit of time, but well worth it! Nugget's nursery is forest animals, so I obviously immediately thought of Elizabeth Hartman's Fancy Forest. A few friends have done the foxes or the hedge hogs, but no one yet had done the full forest. Since I finished mine a few have done the full forest of animals.

I think this might be one of my favorites I've made. It's a good combination of colors and fun for a little nugget. 

I think nugget likes it too....
I also made him a little scrunchy bunchy car seat blanket with a little fox on the front and the back is navy sweatshirt material to keep him toasty.

Weddings, Weddings, Everywhere!

As I said before this past year was the year of the weddings! This one was off to Christine and Rob. When I got this jelly roll I knew that it should be Christine's quilt, but I wasn't sure what it would look like. Then I got this idea in my head. I had to do some math and trial and error, but I finally got to a point where all of my squares lined up! I had debated on adding a border, but I decided against it, I think it turned out perfectly!


I would definitely do this quilt again, so next time I will put together a tutorial!

Weddings and Babies....

This past year was the year of the Weddings and the Babies! Nick and I went to four...count them FOUR weddings over the summer and, my lovely sister had a little nugget! In my house we refer to him as nugget..... So this was the first finish of the summer. It went to my cousin Stacey and her new husband Brent.  When I first started this quilt I didn't know where it was going to go. At first I thought that it might be part of a signature quilt that I did for my friends Jenny and Anthony's wedding quilt, but as that came together I knew that these were two different projects. So I put together a new back for this quilt and sent it off to my new favorite long arm quilter!  I love how this quilt came together and I think it is the perfect gift for Stacey and Brent.
