    We all have different things that we enjoy. You've produced several very cute and useful quilts and had fun doing it.

    Exactly what I was going to say. Even the exact words, love the quilts.

    They are all beautiful! Some fabric should be showcased as one large piece and these are a prime example! Love the one with the chairs and keys!

    I don't see a thing wrong with doing this. I made a big quilt for grandson in brown and tan cars of all sizes and models. He covers with it in bed, at breakfast and TV.LOL. Love it.

    Or they could be called efficiency panels/quilts -- as this is an rather efficient way to get a quilt made and loved!

    So very true. You don't have to always sew small pieces into a larger piece to make a quilt. These turned out great!
