  June and July     Here are the quilt tops I made in June:     This is one I made with some fun fabric (with chocolate) that I had had for some time. I tried a red border first, but it overwhelmed the whole quilt.   I just designed and constructed this top from blocks that were made by others and the teddy bear panels.     I made this one at the same time from other teddy bear panels and other blocks that were previously made. And here are the quilt tops I made in July:   This one was so much fun because I could use up small pieces of fabric leftovers. And finally, this one was my Covers for Kids Challenge Quilt.  Unfortunately, I was consumed by a move and did not get to finish it.  The fabric was Nancy Drew book covers; however, I only used the green.

  I did not get many done in May.  The fabric in the purple one is really pretty.   Again, a non traditional pattern below - harder for me to compose.

And here are the ones from April: I have been experimenting with less traditional piecing, however, I'm not sure it is for me.   The next two are more my style.   This one is really wonky.   I guess I am more structured than that.  I think I like this blue one best.

These are the charity quilts I completed in March:

Just finished the 2012 Block of the Month from the Kansas City Star: Sacagawea, This Quilt is for You It had 12 blocks but I chose to only include 9 of them. I think I will keep this one,  I'll decide when it is quilted. The following three are for charity;: This one, I may keep for myself.  It took a long time to locate all the blue tone fabric.

The top above was my version of Bonnie Hunter's Christmas Quilt for 2012. you can find the pattern on her blog at Quiltville.

These were all made as presents for some special people.
