October 14th, 2008 | by Jessie | A few weeks ago, I posted a preview of these quilts here.
And here I posted pictures of the little boys who will be receiving the quilts.
Here are the finished quilts!
Leslie said that she wanted bright colors and wanted the quilts to be similar but not exactly the same.
Once again, [...]

Look at this beautiful, glowing pregnant woman! Doesn’t she look great? Would you believe she’ll be 30 weeks along with twins next week? She looks so small!
And check out this score:
And this is what she got from me:
Her baby girl names, you ask?

October 10th, 2008 | by Jessie | I had the pleasure of meeting baby Owen for the first time last night. He’s so adorable! Owen and his family are doing very well.
Here’s the proud mommy and her precious babe:
Look at that hair!
I’ve started asking expectant moms for input as I design a baby quilt [...]
October 2nd, 2008 | by Jessie | By the time most of you will be reading this, my friend Leslie will already have delivered her twins! But as of time of publishing, she has yet to be induced.

September 30th, 2008 | by Jessie | My mom took the boys for a couple of nights this past weekend. Josh and I got a lot done around the house, had friends over, finished my quilt, had a Dairy Queen date… good times!

September 17th, 2008 | by Jessie | Not that today they are here to stay… that’s just my round-about, goofy way of saying that yesterday was a good day.

Yesterday Jett and [...]
September 16th, 2008 | by Jessie | They’re here!
My printed patterns were delivered yesterday afternoon. I was very, very pleased with the quality of the printing and overall finished product.
Let me tell you a little bit about the pattern booklet:
It is printed in full color. It is coil bound so that it can lie completely flat or [...]
August 28th, 2008 | by Jessie | One tricky thing about choosing fabrics and using them in a quilt is working with value. Not color, mind you, but the saturation of color making value light, medium, dark, and every range in between.
The quilt in the following pictures is the one I made for my nephew Jackson, he was born in February [...]

I love my design wall. My dad built mine, and although I can’t tell you exactly step by step how he made it, I can tell you the materials we used and the basics of the construction.
I began by searching online for automotive headliner – thanks to watching an episode of Quilt [...]
