Some "Ta-Dah!" To Share

First Ta-Dah!

A finished scrap basket. Yay! I squared the corners so the basket would stand by itself but didn't cut the excess because I wanted to keep the "Vive la France" wording. Vous comprenez que la France est très importante pour moi.

It's starting to look decent. :^D


Second Ta-Dah!

A finished quilt in flannel. This one is for my second son.
 A monster of a quilt (75X100 inches)

Lots of crumbs stars and Puss in the Corner.

Robots in the first border and gears in the corner for my wanna be Engineer son.

This is the one I made for my first son. (It looks like a picture of the finished quilt was never taken. One day, I'll take one of the three quilts together. ) He loves it.

On to the last flannel quilt. Yay! I love to play with flannel.



Now, here are some other little bits I did.


One block to see how it goes. It is inspired by Ellen at Little Jewel Quilts. Thank you Ellen! I've been cutting fabrics for this quilt for two years or so. I'll have to start making this quilt soon or else, I'll end up with two. :^D



This is a commission car seat cover. A co-worker saw the ones I have in my car and wanted some for her van. She has small children and said she would greatly appreciate something she can throw in the washing machine. Since she really likes this pattern I've suggested (inspired by The Joyful Quilter. Thank you Joyful!) I'll be making a second one this weekend.


On to sewing up some frankenbatten to make another basket in the colour of March for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Thank you, Angela, for the fun challenge.

Enjoy!

Your scrap basket is so fun, Chantal! Now you can fill it up with all kinds of scrappy goodness. Looks like your son's quilt turned out wonderfully, too!

Love the scrap basket! You've been very productive this month, and I'm sure your sons love their beautiful warm quilts!

Fiona said...

Wow on your lovely finishes... the quilt is amazing.. so many pieces.. is it quite heavy with the flannel and little pieces... it will be so warm but must have been a workout to quilt? love your baskets.... good idea keeping the little piece with the wording you wanted...

Bravo, magnifiques ouvrages ! Tes paniers sont très beaux (et j'aime ce détail du coin !), ça rend super bien sur tes étagères. Superbes quilts aussi, j'adore les coins personnalisés Futur Ingénieur ;-)

congrats on your finishes! That star quilt is so fun and what a great scrappy quilt. Love the gears in the corners so clever!
You've been busy!

Marly said...

Your star quilts are a wonderful way to use your scraps, as are the scrap baskets. continue like this and you'll have nothing to put in those lovely baskets!

Well you've just got ta-das all over the place! Great work!
Your Pecking Order block is gorgeous in those darks - I like it better than the Missouri Star one!
