#021 and #022 - Z is for Zoo baby quilts
Several people are having babies. I saw this fabric and thought it would be fund to make a couple more baby sized quilts. New techniques are the first time working with a panel and using flannel for the backing. Also, I quilted elephants, lions and giraffes in the quilting. A lot of tracing practice went into learning how to do these correctly. I made two quilts with the Z is for Zoo fabric.
#020 - Baby Quilt - August C+S
I've had this layered cake for awhile. After I decided to put quilts up for sale, I figured I could do a fun baby quilt and post it online. I wanted to try an all over concentric circle motif with my quilting that I saw from Angela Walters free motion quilting challenge. So I pieced this quilt mainly to practice the quilting. New techniques with this quilts are mainly the quilting motif.
#019 - Wolf Abstractions - First ETSY sale
I have to say that this pattern by Violet Craft was probably the most fun pattern I've ever made. The large paper pieced pattern was pretty easy to make. I love trying new techniques for each quilt I make. This one was the first that I did in all solid fabrics and the first with a minky backing. I've heard of people having issues with a minky backing when quilting, but I didn't have any problems.
I loved doing specific quilting for each section of the quilt. The result is probably my favorite quilt I've ever made. I nicknamed him Bane the Wolf.

So, I've started making too many quilts. I figured the best thing to do was to try to sell on Etsy quilts that I don't have a recipient for. After only being on Etsy 1 month, this quilt sold! I'm happy that I had my first sale! I hope the purchaser of the quilt loves it.
