Quilts

How I wish I could post a few pictures, but hopefully soon! :-) Now that I have Haley, Logan, and Silas' quilts all finished, I am ready to start ours. We have changed our minds a few times about what colors we want to make our quilt. For the past 8 years or so we have had a comforter on our bed that is tan, burgandy, and navy. We are going to go with something much brighter and cheerful this time. Our new quilt is going to be made out of different patterns and shades of green with white. I made a girl's baby quilt that was green and white and we just loved it. So, last week I bought my first of four fabrics. Fun!! We have the pattern picked out and once I collect the other three fabrics I am ready to start. Can't wait! ;-)

Wow! How fun! I wish I could quilt better! I made our kids a quilt when they were born, but it wasn't anything that great! :-\ It was really fun to make though and pretend I was a quilter! :) Can't wait to see yours! Sounds like you've been super busy making all of those quilts! Remember when we took that quilting class for j-term with Linda Hyink?? That was so much fun! :)

I'll be looking forward to seeing your fabrics and pattern! I am getting ready to make a quilt for my in-laws' 40th anniversary--very exciting!

I can't wait to see your pictures!! They sound beautiful and it also sounds like you are really enjoying the whole process. I was thinking of you the other day because I am thinking of learning how to knit. We will see! Wish you were closer and could teach me. :)
