2 quilt tops in one weekend

yep, that's right, i finished 2 quilt tops in one weekend! even though they are both small baby quilts, that's still one of the most productive sewing weekends i've ever had. and who knows, it's only noon, maybe i'll get even more sewing done =P the first of the 2 quilt tops i finished was the solids challenge quilt. i stitched it up yesterday and i'm VERY happy with how it turned out!

i can't remember what we are supposed to do with our finished challenge quilts, but it will be hard to give this one away though it's not even finished yet. hmm, maybe i'll make the back for this quilt tonight.

also finished yesterday was the beginning of the second quilt top. i finally started making a baby quilt for my coworker who's expecting her first child. i made a bib and a matching wipe cloth a little while ago, this quilt would complete the set! 

here it is, the center piece of the nap baby quilt hanging out at the bottom of my "design wall". i wanted to make something simple and modern, and not too cute, so i some colourful scraps to make up the word "nap" and set it on kona coal, and complimented it with kona ash. simple and modern and not too cute!

i also worked a bit on our wedding quilt, i can't believe the wedding is only 2 and a half months away!!

before i head back to the sewing room, i want to show you this awesome package that arrived at my house a couple of weeks ago. do you believe in fabric karma? well, i think now i do! back in may i participated in sew mama sew's giveaway day as a giveaway host for the first time, and for the first time i also won a giveaway during sew mama sew's many giveaway days! i won this gorgeous fat quarter bundle of joel dewberry's aviary 2, a beautiful pin cushion, and a hera marker, all from jennifer of ellison lane quilts!

i especially love that pin cushion, it even matches with all of my pins! and it also reminds me of this gorgeous quilt jennifer has made. thank you again jennifer!

enjoy the rest of the weekend!
