Triplets!!!

Here is a set of quilts made for a set of triplets soon to join our church family. I collaborated with a couple of girls from the RH quilt group to make these quilts. They were based on patterns from Quilting for Peace. (Now I know what kind of crafting books I like!) The blue quilt on the left was largely done by Gioia, but I contributed the binding and the backing.

Amy and I worked on this pinwheel quilt together. It was fun to do a quilt that required a lot of piecing. The end result is stunning, but it was a lot of work to figure out the pattern.

What ties all three quilts together is the fun yellow backing that they all share. I got this from a vintage sheet found at one of my estate sales. I really love this sheet and am happy that it is going to quilts that I really love and may even see around sometime.

The third quilt is a simple strip quilt, but it was fun to find fabrics that complemented each other. Most are from my stash, but one of the fabrics is from Amy's Nana Norma fabric. A couple of these quilts use fabric from ladies who are no longer with us, but we feel that they would be happy that their fabric contributed to these happy little quilts.
