Carol,
Thank you Carol. It is interesting how different fabrics can make such a dramatic change in the look. You can see in the CW's quilt, the white squares that I think would be great to use for photos for a memory quilt. The 38 year quilt is a queen and has more borders on it. The other two are twin sized quilts. Although I'm a hand quilter, I did do each of the twin quilts in less than a year but I'm retired and quilt at every opportunity which helps. Prior to retirement, while working full time and keeping up with a family it would take me 18 months to 4 years to complete a quilt depending on life and how things were going. If you're a machine quilter, this pattern would be easy to do and you could churn these out quickly with ease.
Glad you enjoyed seeing them.
Patty
