    Exquisite! And I love how you credited each helper.

    You asked about quilts we're the most proud of...

    This is one I made up.. it's a wall hanging. And my first attempt at handquilting.

    My first whole cloth quilt. Hand quilted (took me a year).
    First attempt with Prairie Points too.

    What an interesting post. Every time I make a quilt I am emotionally attached after it is completed and it becomes my favorite. These quilts are all beautiful and unique. That's why I am addicted to this craft. Here are three of my favorites.

    Do you have a pattern name for the first quilt you posted? I really like it.

    I made this one for my sister's 60th birthday. She's always loved everything from the 50s and 60s, the period in which we grew up, so I went with art of the time in her favorite colors and had it quilted in a flip flop pattern, her favorite footwear. It's my favorite...so far.

    I designed, appliqued, embroidered, and hand quilted this.

    This is just adorable!! Coloring Books can make some SUPER patterns! We found one that was like stained glass pictures, traced onto off white good muslin, and then used the fabric paint to color in………and made throw pillows……This quilt is really great - and your color selection for the pinwheels is perfect!!

    What a great thread!! I'm loving all the stories. Here are a couple of my favorites:

    Orca Bay, because it had so may pieces!!

    and Carolina Crossroads I made using 1/2 inch larger pieces to make it king size for a special friend
