New quilts and the calm before the storm

Fantastic work! The stars quilt is just beautiful - well, they all are, but I reallllly like that one. The lambs are just adorable - and I think the quilting made them come to life. You can almost see them leaping around from block to block. And the red, white, and black? That's one of my favorite color combinations (in fact, I'm quilting one right now), so I automatically fell in love with it.

We, too, are wait> I finished three quilts at the end of the year after being a slacker

That's a lot of beautiful work you've finished! You must be very proud :-)

I love them all, but the stars quilt is my faaavorite. I especially like the way you did the borders.

We're looking for freezing rain.....already had a little this morning, just enough to make all the sidewalks very dangerous. Schools are closed. Those poor kids will be going to school until July to make up for all the "snow" days!

I'm with Irene...Love the star quilt! Great colors. I love the borders too.

Thanks everyone, your comments mean alot to me. My free hand quilting has been a frustration to me but, I'm determined to get decent at it sooner or later. It doesn't help that my good machine, a Janome 6600P is having upper tension problems all of a sudden. I had to get out my old machine to finish things up. The closest repair place is an hour away and with the weather we are having, it's not happening any time soon. The only good thing about being snowed in is having more time to sew. Donna

Donna, your quilts are great. I like the stars a lot. Lambs are pretty cute. If you sign up for the Janome6500 yahoo group you might be able to find some answers or get some advice. (the group covers 6500 and 6600) You might not need a repair just work things different. Thanks for sharing! Taria
