How Big is a Queen-size Quilt?

Baby Reagan’s quilt
Congrats to Grandma Lisa! Here’s the baby quilt she made for her granddaughter, Reagan, born August 8!
The fabric is soft flannel, perfect for a baby to cuddle and have tummy time.
What I really liked about this quilt was that Lisa let me use Superior Threads Magnifico, Tangerine Flash! The thread is a great fluorescent orange, which does not photograph well, but trust me, it’s bright!
The quilting design is my favorite fun, freehand edge to edge, Swirl and Curl. It always looks great!
Thanks! Linda 🙂

Latest Vintage Finds
Last Saturday, was the largest flea market in Iowa and of course, I was there with my best quilting buddy looking for vintage fabrics, quilt tops and random stuff!
I didn’t find any unfinished quilts on this trip but I scored 2 vintage aprons. When I bought them, I was thinking I’d cut them up for the fabric, but they are so pristine and well made that they might stay aprons for awhile!
I also scored a random hunk of purple and white feedsack material and a yellow-orange Fire King soup bowl. I love the color and how it matches the apron. The yellow-orange apron has a cute scalloped edge, too. What do you think, would you cut up the aprons for the fabric?
This was the best find! My sister requested a cheap Sangria pitcher and look what I found for $1!!!! It’s a perfect size, has a lip to keep the fruit from spilling and is in perfect condition! I looked the rest of the day for another but didn’t find one this nice for this price!
I’m linking with Suzanne at Vintage Thingie Thursday! Check out other vintage finds here.
Thanks! Linda 🙂

Three Down, One to Go!
Time to reveal the sneak peak quilt! Landon Ryan was born last night! Of course, we headed to the hospital to hold him and give him his Tummy Time quilt and Lil’ Lovee.
He is so adorable and even though I guessed girl, we couldn’t be happier for our niece and her hubby!
I love string quilts and scrappy quilts, therefore, this is one of my favorites! In fact, I’ve already started another one. With my big extended family, I’m sure I’ll need it soon!
This is the first time I’ve used Minkee for the backing fabric on a Tummy Time quilt. I like it! It’s super soft and shows off the quilting design.
Landon’s big brother is Jordy, who has a few of my quilted projects! Here’s Jordy with his Tummy Time quilt.
I’m linking with Such a Sew and Sew: A Stitch in Time for an August finish. Check out other finishes here. And a big thank you to Mr. Bug for drawing me to win last month! 🙂 Linda

Fancy That! Again!
Fancy That strikes again! Here’s Ellen’s retreat quilt from the pattern, “Fancy That”. Check here for Mary Ellen’s version with dark background fabric.
The batting is Quilter’s Dream Wool which adds so much texture to the quilting. A freehand edge to edge, Lettuce Leaf meander is perfect!
The thread color is white and I love the way it looks on the dark batik backing fabric. This quilt is reversible!
I spent the day at the largest flea market in Iowa yesterday! Stay tuned for a vintage find post!
Thanks! Linda 🙂
