All week I have been sewing pinwheel and hexagon blocks trying to catch up on my quilt alongs. Yesterday, I tried to think of something to make and share for Sew & Tell Friday. Ever since seeing Amanda Jean's ticker tape quilt, I have been wanting to make one.
Recently, Angela showed pictures from her Ticker Tape Workshop at the Chicago Modern Quilt Guild. They looked like they were having so much fun, I wanted to play too ;-) The above picture is one of the tops I assembled from my scraps. It is basted and ready to quilt.
I made two. While digging through my scraps, I found a bunch of fabrics purchased in Montana, and I thought a themed ticker tape quilt was in order. This one has already been quilted. It just needs the binding.
I just love this cowboy and cowgirl pair! I can't tell you how many yards of this fabric I own. This is from the line of fabric I used for my daughter's Cowgirl quilt.
Here is another cute cowgirl. This little quilt will be traveling with me to Montana this summer.
Don't forget to visit all the other Sew and Tell participants.
Have an amazing weekend!!!!
I love both of them; quilts where you can play with your scraps are always lots of fun! I have been wanting to make one of those too and hope to squeeze it into my project list very soon.
ReplyDeleteThey're both darling! I've been wanting to try one of these too. I miss Amanda Jean. I heard a rumor today that she is coming back to blogland. I better clear the decks! Between you and her, my project list grows and grows! Can ya make some ugly stuff so I can catch up?!

ReplyDeleteThose look like so much fun and a great way to use some treasured scraps.

ReplyDeleteWhat cool quilts, and a great way to showcase that cowboy themed fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love the sassy cowgirl! It makes me want to hop the next plane to Montana!
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! I've been dying to try one of the ticker tape quilts, but just haven't had time - hopefully soon!
ReplyDeleteI remember this quilt! I also want to try this. Yours look just too cool! Love the cowboy pieces, Yee-Haw!
ReplyDeleteI just became a follower. I was really surprised that I hadn't yet!
I really like your ticker tape quilts. Using your scraps, reminds me of a memory quilt. Keep creating.
ReplyDeleteThose are both adorable quilts!! Looks like a quick easy way to finish a quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Love the cowboy theme!
ReplyDeleteI love ticker tape quilts. Montana is on my list of places to go and visit. My daughter and I love the cowgirl!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen one of these before. How clever!
ReplyDeleteWhat a quick and rewarding project!
ReplyDeleteLove the fabrics on the gray (always) and the unique cowboy quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh fun, the Montana quilt is particularly darling!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like fun! Great way to do a themed quilt.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are wonderful. I have the ticker tape quilt on my to do list. I was planning on making it out of scraps - hadn't thought of making one of yardage but it certainly makes sense to make a specially themed one.
ReplyDeleteI love these! I've been wanting to make one of these ever since I saw Amanda Jean's. Thanks for reminding me :)
