{Quilts}


Remember these?...

and this?...

I made those for my girls' room months ago, planning to start the quilts for their bed shortly after. I probably should have started the quilt before the decor, but that's just how I roll...

Unfortunately, how I also "roll", is I put things off forever.

I have so many unfinished/unstarted projects.
{unstarted is not a real word}

I'm finally getting around to doing their bed quilts. Don't worry, they didn't freeze this winter, but they weren't donned in cute Riley Blake Designs fabric. 

I'm having a hard time committing to a pattern. I don't want an exact "pattern" throughout, just every other square white, with random fabrics in between. You'd think that would be easy, but it's driving me crazy try to make it look random.

I thought I loved this...
 
But now as I look at the picture, I'm already rearranging it in my mind and wondering what was I thinking??
Good thing I haven't sewn anything yet.
{It will be twice as long..I have a million more white squares to cut out}

However it ends up, I {love} these fabrics...


Can you tell a certain 3 year old couldn't keep their little fingers off the material?


Isn't that little bird the cutest?

 I'm hoping to start piecing it together next week...if I can decide on a "pattern".

Have you sewn any quilts lately?
Have any quilts you've been meaning to finish?

I have 5..5 unfinished quilts.
Yikes.

I love the colors! Your girls must have a beautifully colorful room! I have a pile of baby blankets waiting to be made into quilts--but I'm chicken about starting since I haven't ever made one! Please post pics when you finish--maybe it'll get me moving!
