    These quilts are again very "Manly" quilts. BUt I could totally see using these in a cabin snuggling by a fire..reading a book( a quilting book of course) with a cup of hot cider.

    I tried to keep with the theme of the quilts.
    Many of the fabrics had different types of leaves... I used stipple as my base and added different types of leaves in my quilting. For the blocks I just wanted to outline the main duck and add a little water texture and a cloud. The end result is a comfy cozy look.

    I quilted these using hobbs polydown batting.

    I quilted these freehand on my 26 INNOVA.
    Thanks for looking.

    I agree with bisseau but alas, I have not even looked at my piles of quilting projects. I am waiting for the bug to bite me again. I've been in a huge slump :(
