Seeds of Faith

Seeds of Faith by Leanne Anderson for Henry Glass

This inspirational collection designed by Leanne Anderson of The Whole Country Caboodle brings a wonderful message of strength, hope, love and peace. 

Each of the squares in the panel bears the following messages, surrounded by the Bible verse, “For I know the plans I have for you, they are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope” Jeremiah 29:11.

  • Faith sees the flower in every seed!
  • As for me and my house .. we will serve the Lord!
  • For the joy of the Lord is your strength!
  • Faith…Hope…Love … But the greatest of these is love!
  • He who plants kindness … gathers love!
  • Friendship is like a flower … if nourished it will grow!
  • The Lord is my Shepherd … I shall not want!
  • Friends are God’s angels on earth!

We’ve kitted up this collection with the FREE pattern from Henry Glass in both the blue and the green colorways.  How wonderful to have a quilt to warm us with His Words of love.

Sweet Friends

Sweet Friends by Holly Hobbie for Quilting Treasures

Did you ever have a Holly Hobbie doll?  I did!  As a child, I loved playing with my dolls, and my Holly Hobbie doll was one of my favorites.  I’m sure, even back then, I had a few clothing items that were Holly-themed, and at some point I probably had my room painted in Holly Hobbie colors.  One of my favorite shows on TV was Little House on the Prairie, and my Holly doll was my friend from that era.  Quilting Treasures has designed this adorable collection featuring Holly and her friends.  We’ve kitted it up and have the yardage to complete adorable projects for your sweet daughter or granddaughter, niece or friend.

Wip Wednesday … March Edition

Thank you for your entries!  Your projects are beautiful and we can’t wait to see them finished.

I am making this quilt for my grandson. I saw this in a quilt shop in Raleigh, NC and fell in love with it.  I added the 2 final borders to get the length that I wanted.

 

Milarie R from Sheridan, IL

I just finished this lap-size quilt top made with Lake House Dry Goods fabric, mainly from the "Rose Garden" line, plus a few others from the same company. The center square is a Portuguese Water Dog and it is surrounded by pieced squares, plain squares and 4 corner squares that have an appliqued heart that I added, by hand, with a blanket stitch. After it is machine quilted, I will donate it to the Steel City Kennel Club to be given to the dog that wins Best of Breed in the Portuguese Water Dog class. I hope the winner will enjoy the quilt.

I bought a bunch of fat quarters at a sale in Sacramento.  After buying them I couldn’t resist the pinks and decided to make a quilt for my granddaughter.  She is 7 nd a real girly girl.  These colors are perfect for her!

This will be a quilt for my seven-year-old daughter. This pattern is called bento box and it's one of my favorites. It's all made with Brazilian fabrics: white, red, blue and green. I love solid colors.

Thanks for the opportunity of showing people's work on your blog. I am a blogger too:

Here in WA I am working on blocks that I am exchanging with a friend. (Bingo~Bonnie of http://bingobonnie.blogspot.com/)  We are using the My Blue Heaven pattern from Quilter's Cache~ (http://www.quilterscache.com/M/MyBlueHeavenBlock.html) and using scrappy fabrics and blues.  We did resize the blocks. ;-)
I have 32 blocks to get done... I'll be sending 16 to Bonnie. :-)
Thanks for the fun w.i.p.wednesday post!

I have been working on a 3" block quilt for the past year. I purchased the fabric in Mozambique, Africa. Once finished, this queen size quilt will have a block pattern of Africa on the front and horizontal stripes on the back.

I'm working on a wall hanging, called Sunday Squares by Charlie Scott.  I found the pattern at the Moda Bake Shop. I'm using the Benartex line of Garden Song by Nancy Halvorsen.  Definitely a work in progress :).

I love this feature of your shoppe!  I have been working on a red and blue string quilt for a soldier wounded in Afghanistan.  He is a friend of our family and was recently awarded the purple heart for his bravery.
It is almost finished.  I had bloggers from all around the country make blocks for this quilt and include a note for Matt to be put into a journal for him.  My DF Pauline has been helping me with this and when it is finished we will be making a second one for a soldier friend of hers.

My Cousin sent me this "Montana Modern" Kit for Christmas and I am enjoying putting it together.

I'm working on the Cobblestone Lane BOM quilt.

The fabrics are a mix but several are from Moda Howard Marcus Alliance collection.

 

Janet H. from West Jordan, UT

Working on a couple of great projects - -  Just finishing up with Schnibbles by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. Winter White pattern using Deb Strain's Summer Fun line from last year.  I only have the binding left to do for the 34"x34" table topper  Also, for a great couple adopting a baby from Wyoming, I'm finishing up a Mountain Valley Stitches pattern called "Baby Steps" (9-patches and half square triangles) using Exclusively Quilters fabric (I believe it's Harmonies or something similar - can't read it on the fabric - too smeared!).  Just really busy sewing up a storm! 

P.S.  I've made the "Winter White" pattern several times using Gobble, Gobble and Crazy Eight - both by Moda.  It's a great table topper pattern that you can use to make holiday or seasonal table toppers!
