Yeah! Got some sewing in this week. My quilts are home from the quilt show and I decided to make pillowcases to store the quilts. Thus my use of fabric this week. Making pillowcases is so easy! Finishing up some machine quilting this weekend, then I hope to get started on my other quilting projects! The first project I hope to tackle is finishing up a New York Beauty quilt from a Judy Holly class. But not for long. Friday I'm off to NYC and Martha's Vinyard for 10 days.

Welcome to D T Quilts!
This blog will chronicle my quilting experiences. I have been sewing since my grandmother taught me to as a child. I loved it even then. I began quilting in 2004 to make a quilt of my daughter's school uniforms. Check out the Lauren's Sacred Heart Quilt page. I fell in love with quilting and have not stopped since. I belong to several great quilt guilds. Happy Quilting!

Design Wall Monday- June 21,2010
Nothing on the design wall. No quilting in progress as I was working this week/end at the Gulf States Quilting Association quilt show. However, I am thrilled. I entered 3 quilts into the show and won an Honorable Mention for my quilt titled "Lauren's School Days at Sacred Heart". You can view this quilt here: Lauren's School Days at Sacred Heart

Design Wall Monday- June 14, 2010
I am making a quilt for a friend for a baby boy. I liked the Puppy Tales line at my local quilt store. Should be able to finish this one this week. I like this pattern with the large center focus fabric because it comes together quickly. And if you have a real cute focus fabric, it works!

Stash Report- June 13, 2010
Busy this week working for our upcoming quilt show- receiving quilts and judging begins today. However, I did find time to go to Mes Amis Quilt shop and buy fabric for a baby quilt a friend asked me to make. I tried, but couldn't find anything in my stash that would work. Fortunately, I used the fabric this week- so, in and out the same week! Net use for the year remains the same. Jury duty this week. Hope to get released early in the day so I can go home and get some quilting done!
