I come from a quilting family, both of my grandmothers and my mother made quilts. I am lucky to have quilts from each of them. I made my first quilt when I was sixteen and have been quilting ever since.
A few years ago I made each of my daughters a crazy quilt using corduroy, mach suede and upholstery fabrics in earth tones. I used the herringbone stitch on all of the seams. I thought I was a crazy quilter until I found the Yahoo crazy quilting groups. Now I know I have lots to learn.
I have been working on a quilt for my daughter's wedding, which was almost three years ago. I used vintage linens, and hankies. I have tried to do more interesting seam treatments on it but I still haven't ventured into the squares yet.
I made my daughter some cq pillows for Christmas. I especially enjooyed embrodering on the fabric.
Here are a few of my smaller quilting projects.
I love your quilts, they are colorful and so much fun! I can't wait to see what you're next project will be.
