Quilts in 2017


Good morning! I love these yearly posts and I think this will be a new category.. I have said that I won't make another quilt until I buy a walking foot for my sewing machine .. hopefully that will make it easier!
I can't believe that my daughter and I made 2 quilts each this year ! I had been wanting to make one for a couple years since I have quite a few Halloween and Christmas fabrics in my sewing room!
She kept pestering me so we made them ...we each made a quilt in a weekend of simple 4 inch squares !Halloween quilts 

and our Christmas quilts!

Both holidays together! I also made a table runner out of the strips that I had sewn together but didn't use!
Thanks so much for stopping by! If you are a stitcher and joining us in the #pcforestsnowfall today is the day!
