Here's mine. This one took me a year and a half. It was machine pieced, needle turned 3 dimensional appliqued, and I hand quilted this one. I made it for my daughter who loves it. It is one of my favorite quilts and may make one for myself. The third photo is a close-up while I was quilting it.

I love your very traditional flower basket quilt. It's lovely and shows our quilting heritage so well. And the photo of the partial quilting is captivating. Great job. SandyQuilter (not sandyquilts)

This is a quilt I did for a 2012 Christmas gift for my DDIL. It was posted yesterday under My Most Challenging Quilt to Date - USA, but after encouragement from other board member, I am posting it here as well. Thank you for all your kind comments. I have had the pattern for several years but I googled the pattern name and came up with this web site for the pattern:

I added the red sashing, blue cornerstones with the state initials below, and a paper pieced star as the cornerstone in the border, to make it queen sized.[ATTACH=CONFIG]387212[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]387213[/ATTACH]

This quilt is machine pieced, needle turned applique, hand embroidered, and hand quilted. It took me about 6 months and it is only a lap size quilt. I gave it to my DMIL for Christmas. She is a dear sweet lady and is not in the best of health right now.

Another beautiful execution, specailly since you designed it yourself.

I'm thinking maybe I like the "specialness" of self designed pieces more than the actual look.

May I request???????????????

If you respond about a specific quilt but do not "quote" the post you are referring to, would you please at least identify the particular quilt by the quilt maker's name or the color/pattern of the quilt the reply is about.

"That's beautiful" or something similar tells the rest of us nothing.
