Thought I would share some of the best of his designs. He has designed 163 quilts already!
Hope you enjoy looking at them. We may have a promising quilt designer!

Now you need to start him on one of the simpler patterns and show him how it looks in fabric. He could be the next John Flynn. Sorry John but the next generation is gaining on you!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Jan

Oh Rhonda, this is so impressive. He is one talented designer. And with someone this young, they don't think about what or how it works, they just do it, and it turns out remarkable. Like the computer, us old people, if we try to think about how a computer actually works, we go nuts, but the kids just accept it and do it, and know more than we do. Keep him going, and maybe have him try to make something out of fabric now. Then ofcourse, we want to see it. And what is his full name so we can all say, we knew him when he was just a little kid. Now he a great designer. LOL

It sure sounds like it. Right now I could use his daddy. My chiro just had a double by-pass, so not sure when he'll be back at work. Joey sounds like he could be a handful. A good handful, but he is going places, I can see that.
