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!

September UFO


This is my September UFO for Judy L's 2011 UFO Challenge.  I took this class in 2009.  It is called Bali Sea Star in the book Scrap-Basket Surprises by Kim Brackett.  It is made using batik jelly rolls.  In the class I made 2 blocks, came home and made 2 more.  Then there it sat for 2 years.  Thank you July L for doing the 2011 UFO challenge or I don't think I ever would have finished this one!

    I've seen the book many times and it always catches my eye, but I've resisted buying it so far. Your version is gorgeous - good for you finishing the remaining 16 blocks and getting it all together!
