Gorgeous quilt Jane! Do you want to adopt me too? I will gladly send you my snail mail address for the next quilt!

Thanks for sharing! :D

Thanks for the compliments, I am a self taught quilter, started in January of this year after a knee replacement at the age of 65. I found the batik print at walmart and fell in love with it. It was a queen size for my son and daughter in law. So far I have made 8 quilts. I am so hooked all I want to do is quilt, quilt, quilt. I piece on the machine and hand quilt. Good thing I live alone, if I had a pet or a husband they would probably starve to death!!!!!!

very pretty quilt. I can't believe that you have made 8 quilts since January. I did good to get a quilt top finished in 3 months. I'm ready to send it off to be quilted now. Keep up the great work and remember to post pics now that you can.

You are really making up for lost time! I have some of that same batik, not sure where it will end up yet. Sure is pretty against the red in your quilt.

Thank you for the compliment. I live along, no pets, am disabled so about all I do is quilt, quilt, quilt (and then quilt some more) I am so hooked that my head is just swirling with ideas for more quilts. Trouble is I am running out of kids and grandkids.''

Well if you are running out of kids and grandkids to make these for I'd be very happy to receive one of your quilts. Just let me know and I'll send you my snail mail address. Or if you prefer you could make some lap quilts and take them to a nursing home. I know that they would really appreciate them. :-)
