Coin Quilt Love!

I haven't posted lately, but I have been sewing a lot lately. I love the look of coin quilts so I made 2! I used charm squares which makes for pretty fast piecing. This is Oh, Cherry Oh by Moda. This one is Baskets of Flowers by Moda.
I finally quilted this one from a couple months ago. Again, fabric by Moda......see a trend
here. ;-)
Quilting up close.....I sort of struggled with quilting this one....had a hard time getting into a rhythm.

I am not setting any etsy records selling quilts, but I have been making coffee sleeves to sell on consignment for a local independent coffee shop. They do sell pretty well so I made a bunch of them this weekend.

I hope that everyone is well and had a great weekend. Jenna Z. please email me your address so I can get the string quilt blocks out to you. Thank you.

    I love the coin quilt tops. And those coffee wraps are perfect. Is that your design and pattern?

    Love the white in the coin quilts - sets off the colours beautifully. And your quilting looks great. About time I moved on from meandering and loops.

    As a lover of Moda fabrics I certainly understand your love, too. :-) Both coin quilts are adorable. And, your newly quilted one is beautiful.

    The coffee sleeves are very cute!

    You HAVE been a busy little bee. I just love Moda myself. I love your coin quilts. It's motivating me to finish mine that I started a little while ago.

    You are on a roll girl... I love the coin quilts. They are so fun and fresh looking.

    I think I'll be buying that Coffee Cake pattern soon -- it is just so versatile. Yours looks fabulous. So pretty....

    BTW Do you have buttons on the coffee cozies? Those are darling...I bet they sell out quickly.

    The coffee sleeves do have buttons, I just hadn't sewn them on yet. I was waiting for Mystery Theatre on PBS to settle in for a button sewing marathon. ;-) I am going through the buttons....does anyone know of a reasonable place to buy them? Joann's Fabric was good when they were 50% off and Walmart has a limited supply but the prices were good.

    Heh, this is what I was looking for Oh Cherry Oh. I am awaiting delivery of the Jelly Roll and am getting antsy for ideas. I love this.

    Ok, I am so ashamed that I have not emailed yet, I simply had not read back far enough! Oh dear, I imagine I've lost my claim to them by now. Oh well, I still wanted to thank you for drawing my name and let you know I am not dead. :)
