:D You quilts are absolutely gorgeous. Do you have a longarm or do you have them quilted?

Thank you Martha Jo. My friend Sally @ Windy City Quilting is a longarmer. I tried quilting one of these large tops on my little Pfaff and all I did was swear. It's not for me!

Thank you, but it is a very, very simple baby quilt, scrappy Contrary Wife block. I'm just learning to quilt. I used classic Winnie the Pooh fabrics, and I embroidered a quote from Pooh around the border.

Your work is outstanding. I can only hope to get to that level someday.

That is totally awesome! Believe your long arm friend.

Sheree this is a beautiful quilt and I love your fabric choices. Were these a package or kit? I don;t know if I could have picked theses fabrics to go in this quilt but they work beautifully. Congratulations, you are a great quilter.
