2 quilts for 2 little boys

Oh my! where have I been? just busy I guess!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family up in Colorado last week, the weather was beautiful! And part of the reason I was able to enjoy it so much was I had just completed an order for 2 lap quilts.

The customer requested quilts for her 2 young sons and the amazing part is she provided all the fabrics (the really good stuff too!) so all I had to do was sew it up. She said her sons each picked their own fabrics. These boys have quite the eye for color!

These were a lot of fun to work on!
I'm cutting into fabrics a Christmas gift quilt today so I'll share more on that soon! Anyone else making a quilt for a Christmas gift?

Baby Optimism Quilt

Happy Friday! I have a super sweet baby quilt to show you today. It's a custom order for a very special, long awaited baby of a friend's friend.
I soooo enjoyed making it. The colors palette is really popular right now, coral, turquoise and yellow, but oh so pretty!

I just made a baby sized version of my Optimism Pattern which made it come together super fast.

I did loop-d-loop quilting on it.

And the backing fabric is Butterfly Bliss in teal from Pat Bravo's line Rapture. It was a perfect choice since the mother-to-be didn't want too much pink in the overall quilt.

Have a great weekend everyone!
