Hi Guys, I don't remember if I posted this before but I have uploaded some new photos to my Webshots Quilting album and to Cheeto's album. No needlework photos yet but a few are soon to be posted. There is one of Cheeto (Kitten from Hell) helping me hold up a quilt and several of the continuous line FM quilting design of a horse head. I adapted the single design to a multiple head design to use on the large pieced borders. The quilt Cheeto is with is the one I made for my DSis to give her friend for her anniversary. It was supposed to be nothing but those pretty spider web PP blocks but I had to go to "Plan B". I got crazy (short trip, I know) taking the paper off the blocks so I had to change the layout in mid stride! I DO NOT like the look of the finished quilt but it was all I could come up with at the time. I didn't want to spend a bunch more $$$ on more fabric and I was trying to get the (**&&^*& thing finished before Turkey Day! Nor did I want the quilt to end up more than a large lap quilt. VBS - The recipients love the quilt -- especially all the horse fabrics and FM designs -- so that's all that matters. There is also a photo of the large square (about 80") "LAP" quilt I made for myself. It had to be this big so that the kitties could sit with me and have enough "blankie" to sleep on AND I could still have my overly generous self covered up. Also included is another large 80" square quilt for the friends who lost everything in a house fire last spring. I used the same fabrics that were used in my autumn quilt and Little Mike's {{{Quilt}}} so if it looks similar, it is :-). This is the fourth quilt (three at 80" square and one lap quilt) I have made with those fabrics and I *still* have stacks and stacks of the stuff left! What WAS I thinking when I bough all those fabrics?!?!? I think I started off with more than FORTY different fabrics -- all a minimum of
1 yard! I'll be happy to share if anyone out there needs any autumn fabrics!!! CiaoMeow >^;;^<- posted
