Purple BOMbs, 40.5" x 58.5"
I believe this is the only kind of bombs that we should use.  This resulted from my guild challenge of one BOM a month.  Because I have made very few traditional blocks, I really enjoyed this challenge.  Of course when it came to creating the quilt, I did have to be very creative because I had made my blocks in sizes that I thought fit the block.
 
 
Block of the Month Pillow, 16" x 16"
Pillow made from one of the BOMs that didn't fit in the final quilt.
 

Wedding Memory Pillow Front, 24" square
 

Memory Pillow Back
This is the monogram that the couple designed.
 
 
 
Sewing Machine Cover for my new Juki Exceed 600
BTW, I love this machine
 

Sun Cape made from selvage edges
I like my sewing machine cover so much, I decided to make a sun cape using the same method.  Because I am very allergic to the sun, ie LOTS of cancer, this is something I use a lot during the warm season.

Last October, I promised myself I would try to make one Charity Quilt a month for my quilting year.  Following are some of the 12 Charity Quilts I made.  I know I forgot to photograph one little baby quilt.  The last quilt for my self imposed challenge, didn't get done until October, so it will show up on next years summary.  I found that it was too too much of a challenge.  I struggled to finish; one quilt was late.  This next year I will try to make 6 quilts during the year PLUS quilt 6 other charity quilts. I want to have time to make more Art Quilts and learn how to machine felt.
