I’m finishing up a commissioned baby quilt this week, to be delivered on Thursday. After I made the chevron quilt for H’s speech therapist, using Crazy Mom Quilts’ tutorial, another staffer at her speech clinic commissioned one for her friend’s baby shower. In lovely lavender and gray fabrics that she picked out from Fat Quarter Shop.

So this is the custom project I was working on for a friend. Audrey is a sorority sister I met…wow, about 12 or 13 years ago? And we’ve been part of several alumnae chapters together. She did all of these 5ks a few years ago, but the race bibs have just been hanging around. So, she asked me to put them together with some pink fabric (pink is one of our sorority colors).
I’ve been working on a commission for a wall hanging made from Tyvek race bibs. I’ve never worked with Tyvek before, so this was a challenge that took a bit of research first.

So my first commissioned quilt was delivered to its new home the weekend before Christmas, and I really, really love this. I don’t think I’ve ever done a quilt entirely out of prints, no solids anywhere. I loved the process of designing for someone, I loved how I brought the sketch to life, and I love that Ryann was so happy with the finished product. It was so much fun, and it gave me a lot of confidence in my design skills and my sewing. So. Very. Cool!
