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!

Vintage


I ran into a friend in my LQS, Mes Amis.  She was gathering Kaffe Fassett fabric to make this quilt.  Well, I just had to have one!  It is the perfect quilt to put at the end of the bed in the summer and pull up over you when the AC gets chilly.  It is all Kaffe fabrics and I just love it!  Lots of 9 patches and half-square triangles.  The pattern is in the Kaffe book Quilts in Sweeden and is called Vintage.

Easy Street is Done!

Easy Street is done!  I finished it yesterday.  Here it is.
Too big for me to hold up by myself for a picture.  I added borders which you couldn't see in the picture above..
Love the name Easy Street and since I live in the Big Easy (New Orleans) I used as many New Orleans prints as I could- fleur de lis, jazz cats, music notes, Mardi Gras crowns, etc. as you can see in this picture.

So glad this one is done!  It is a big one.  It measures 100 X 100!
