Sixteen Quilt Tops in 2 Weeks

I have been doing a lot of quilting during this stay at home time.  We are still in school and I am so ready to be done.  Teaching Kindergarten and First Grade over Zoom has taxed me mentally and I just haven't been up to making a blog post.  Getting my pics to my computer from my phone isn't hard, I just didn't take the time!

I am going to make two posts because I have too many things to show!  As you may recall I make a lot of shop samples for Your Best Friend's Quilt Shop in Idaho.  I was sent sixteen bundles of fabric to make three yard quilts from the books Modern Views and Easy Peasy Three Yard Quilts by Fabric Cafe, 8 from each book.  I was able to pick which quilt top to make from the bundles I was sent.  Some of them are not my favorite combinations of fabrics, but at least there were a lot of batiks! 

During this time period I also gave away 4 bags of scraps to a friend.  She loves my scraps and this time I even gave her batiks scraps.  I go to town about every two weeks to do what I have to.

Here are the 16 quilt tops in no order.  They all measure roughly 45 X 60.  The books give directions for enlarging the patterns.  The first photo is the bundles of fabric I received.

There are some really fun designs and fabric combinations in your pile of quilts. None of them look like they were very labor intensive, but 16??!!?? I'm sure you appreciated the mindless sewing after teaching on zoom. When will school end for the year?
