This one isn't quite quilted, nor bound, but I wanted to get a picture of this one. This one is one my favorite and I'll prolly just keep this one. I love all the bright colors and and the fun cowboy theme. I also tried out a crazy 9 patch pattern that I love too. This will just be a lap quilt. Sept. 2010
This quilt is done the same way as Jens' soccer/green/black/white quilt towards the bottom. I also love all the bright Halloween prints and how crazy the boxes are in the center of the squares. Oct. 2010
This is Christian's scout quilt that still needs to be quilted and bound. I made Ryus (my nephew) a similar one and I love how classic and clean it looks. I also love the new merit badge fabric that I was able to cut out individual merit badges that Christian earned. I also wanted to highlight the different fabric that I used on his that represent Christian. When Christian was a baby...my mom had a really super soft rug in front of her kitchen sink that he would crawl all over the house trying to find it and when he did, he would lie down with his face on it. All his life he's been a feely touchy guy of fabrics so I added a row of minky just for him that is super soft.
Jens' Tshirt quilt from Iowa and all the places that he visited while he was there playing. He even went to a showing of Wicked.
This is Ty's Tshirt quilt.
This shirt was the back of one that is already on here and I wanted to include this one, it's his own handwriting that he had to write for his PE shirt in middle school.
Here is Christian's Tshirt quilt. They are all pretty similar except that rows and columns are a little different fabric and here again the back of his quilt is special for him. It's also minky.
Backing done with stripes and a border of soccer material.
Jensen went away to Iowa without any bedding besides a sheet set (that didn't even fit, he had to buy an extra long twin size) So when we went to visit him during conference Oct. 2009 I took along this quilt to give to him. I really love this one. I had the high school quilt this one and it's pretty poorly done. One day I would like to machine quilt on my own machine. I'm trying to get up the bravery to do so.
This one is Jens' Tshirt quilt, first one that I made. I love these because they get so many tshirts for their different activities and this is a good use for them, rather then use them for kindling for our outdoor fire place.

You are SO talented! We LOVE LOVE LOVE our soccer quilt you made for us. In fact, I think Jenna swiped it - I need to swipe it back. I have Julia's old t-shirts I need to do this. I have collected some of Jenna's. Jaley isn't the t-shirt type girl ... she dresses like her Aunt Kelly.
love the quilts Wendi! especially love the minky additions! :)
I love all the quilts! Your Halloween one came out so cute! I do like the mini squares inside the larger ones! I think you could totally do the quilting yourself:-)
WOW! You have been busy. What a wonderful legacy for your boys!!!! They are lucky to have you for their mother.
Those are awesome. That's a talent I wish I had. They look great and are laden with memories. Amazing.
