I'm new at quilting and have made 2 for my daughters so far and a pillow. I have 3 sons and 4 grandchildren which I hope to make each one for. Also my husband asked me to make one for him. We just had our guest bedroom walls (lavendar)and trim (white) painted and I wanted to make quilts for the beds but if I did that first, I'd never get to the rest of the family. Sooooooo last week I bought twin quilts and matching shams at Macy's. They were Martha Stewart's collection and I hate to say "made in China". Must admit they are gorgeous, reversable, and beautifully quilted. They were $200 each but on sale for 50% off. The color lavendar with lovely flowers on a cream background was just what I was looking for so I bought them. Sometimes necessity is the reason for doing something and I guess this was a necessity in my case. I guess I put my family first this time even tho I would have loved to make them for my room.
Sincerely, Jackie
