What a fantastic thing you did to make those quilts for all your besties! I love the split 9P in the teals but teal is my favorite color so any pattern in those colors I would love. I bet it will be a great get together this year with those wonderful quilts presented. Edited to add, the poem is great. I think about many things when I am on the bike too. But I can't let my mind wander quite so much as I am in the drivers seat.

Beautiful quilts that they are going to love & cherish. Your poem is perfect! How are you going to decide who get which quilt? When I used to make gifts for Christmas to give to the other gals I found I had to give them all the same thing. Your kindness is awesome.

I chose by the color that made me think of each one. The quilting designs is the same on all of them and done by my awesome LAQ, not me!

Thanks for the compliments. I forgot to mention that I did not do the quilting. My great LAQ did and I used the same quilting pattern, Irene Swirls, for all of them so they would all have something in common besides the label.

These are excellent gifts. I especially like the Arkansas Crossroads quilts.
