my father is an avid quilter, my mother also quilts. but dad took is up after he was disabled due to rhemitod arthris. It keeps his hands limber. they can always be counted on to donate a quilt for any function such as grads from church to church fund raiser even church conferences. Neither one has gotten into FMQ to hard on their hands but mom ties all the quilts. here are a coulpe pictues of their work the first is my nephew kyle's church graduation quilt. I actually did the blocks and never got around to setting them so gave them to them. they thought it was extra special that his aunt had mad the blocks.
the second is a second quilt my dad made using thangles. i was trying to get hin to do HST were still working on them but since I'm in Missouri and they are in Minnesota its a challenge. but I am very proud to have a dad that quilts!! Now I just need to get my husband quilting, but his support is AWESOME!!!
