Simply Quilts

When I watch Simply Quilts I take pictures of the screen and even video some of the teaching segments. I wanted to take a least one post to list all the projects I'm looking forward to doing. There are at least a couple of quilters who read this, so for everyone else, might want to skip past this one. I get all geeky excited about some of this :-))
Here are some techniques I want to learn:





Especially this one, it combines my two favorite hobbies, quilting and scrapbooking:


This is a picture mosiac, those are 1" finished squares, wow what patience!


I can't wait to start seasonal projects:





The fall projects, I could tweak a bit and coordinate with the colors already in my living room:


I'm drawn to the baby quilts, the colors are so great:





I really enjoy incorporating photography in the quilts:

This is the back of one , apparently on your printer settings you can "tile" a picture, then I could print it on the fabric that goes through my printer and piece it all together, very excited about this prospect.

Here, she actually pieced a picture she had, this is sooo cool, maybe I'll get skilled enough to do this one day :-)



The projects I do I like to be a surprise for the recipient so I don't usually post the quilt until I've given it away. This combines the baby quilt and the photography. Well Amy knows I'm doing this for her little girl and it's just the front, the back is a still a surprise, hehe. It has some applique on it that Brooke taught me how to do, my lines are getting straighter each time.

It's so much fun to do!!

I love Rachel's quilt. Looks like you have your free time mapped out for a while. Fun ideas on all the other quilts. I can't wait to see what you create next.
