“I like to write stories about mystical things so this was a cool project. The pattern is Lisa the Unicorn by Elizabeth Hartman. My favorite part of making a wall hanging was being able to sew it together and my least favorite part was cutting and ripping. “
Grandma note: “I helped Rylee by interpreting the pattern and mentoring her as she worked. I added a finger to help hold the ruler in place when she cut. Rylee did all the work – beginning to end.”

“A quilt for a new baby brother”
Artist: Reuben Leibel
Quilted By: Self
Pattern Source: Original Design
“After I went to the last quilt show in 2019 I decided I wanted to make a quilt for the quilt show. Since I love football I decided to make a football quilt. I drew the full size image and traced it onto a fusible netting. I chose my own fabrics from Mama Virginia’s stash. Mama taught me how to press on the fusible and how to use the sewing machine. I think it is a cool quilt so that’s what I named it.
I am going to make another quilt for the next show…maybe a Lego. “

“My name is Maddie and I made this quilt for myself! My mom knows I love mermaids so she helped me pick out fabric and told me to draw out what I wanted my quilt to look like. She helped me a little, but I did most of it on my own!”
