Things I’ve made from quilts
I’ve found a lot of joy from repurposing quilts left on shelves or packed away, into fun coats! I started off with a beginner pattern by @Laraehandmade and followed along with her YouTube video. I have not turned back! So easy anyone can do it 🤗 #thriftfinds #sewing #quiltcoat #handmade

Getting inspired to make some baby quilts !!🥰
Deciding on backing fabrics for the quilt tops I have already. I’m a beginner, I’m humbled my friend asked me to make these quilts. It’s something that I’ve enjoyed watching my mother and grandmother pick out fabrics to make beautiful things with.
