The Last Of My Pay It Forwards

In the beginning of the year, there was a status update floating around facebook that read:

Pay it forward 2012. I will make something handmade for the first 3 people that comment. They must in return post this on their status and make something for the first 3 people that comment. The rules are it must be handmade from you and delivered before the end of 2012.

I signed up on two of DH's aunt's posts, so I had to post this twice, making 6 projects (even though I ended up making a total of 8, lol). A few weeks ago, I posted two new threads of my first 6 projects:

http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...s-t186998.html

I've just finished the last two projects and mailed them out, so here they are. The first one is an X-Blocks Sleeping Beauty Lap Quilt and the second is a DNP done in aquas to reflect the motion of the ocean and bordered with a sandy beach fabric. Thanks for looking!

They are all gorgeous. You're one busy lady and not even half the year is gone. What is up your sleeve for the rest of the year?

nice job. I have done the pay it forward thing, but mine were not nearly as big as yours.

I am the second oldest of 9 kids, including my step and half siblings, and the youngest three, my half siblings are growing up fast. Two of them are twins and they're graduating this year (the 'baby' will graduate next year) and they've asked me for bed quilts for Christmas. Normally, with such a big family, I couldn't do big bed quilts for Christmas presents, but since this is also their graduating year, I'm making an exception. So, I'm going to have to start their Christmas quilts soon.
