Scrapbook Quilts

These Scrapbook quilts are based on ideas from the book: fast fun & easy scrapbook quilts by Sue Astroth, published by C&T Publishing. The first is finished and the one below is in process. I think it is obvious that these are graduation quilts and yes, Miss Maggie who graduated in '05 is a little put out that hers isn't done. I used monofilament thread to attach the items and printed the pictures on Printed Treasures fabric sheets.

This set of quilts were made for my mom and her two sisters when my Grandma passed away. I used photos, lace,hankies and jewelry to embellish them.

I was inspired by creating this blog to make the t-shirt quilt that I have promised to my daughters Maggie and Erin. We had fun going through all the t-shirts and picking out design and colors. Erin had to edit quite a bit. Even though size is not an issue, she just had way too many t-shirts! I bought the background fabric for both quilts today and have been going through my stash and sorting in preparation. Now I just have to flip a coin I guess to decide who's to start on first.
