Carrie, I love your quilts and the puzzle quilt is particularly appealing. Welcome from California, I am so glad you've joined the group.

I just retired from teaching Special Ed. PreK last June and have nothing but admiration for parents of autistic children. It is quite a challenge at the very least.....

wow, carrie, love your quilts, all-em. love the colors of the puzzle quilt, the movement and colors of tri-quilt, let's see, oh, always wanted to do a sunbonnet sue and actually owe a friend named sue a lap quilt...don't know if she would be amused, i think so! but i am so impressed that your embroidery at ten years old was so beautiful. It's not hard to believe you still had them. think quilters are mostly pack rats....guilty! but some of us are...well, I can't work in a mess, so i have to clean before i can sew...everytime. I guess it's an admirable trait to have, but I would probably get so much more done if I could just jump on machine and hit the gas, lol!....nope, can't cook in a dirty kitchen either, lol. I'm a bit chatty, lol, so stopping now and welcome. we LOVE pictures and ppl that post them...i have to learn how. C

So glad you shared them with us! They are all wonderful. The puzzle piece one has great colors, and what a fitting name. The flying geese is lovely, very traditional and so different than the other one. It sure can be frustrating when we pour so much love into the quilts and our kids just don't appreciate it! Hopefully some day. Your floozies in their dresses are so cute. And that embroidered block one!! Wow. Anyone who saw what a great job you did on those blocks when you were just 10 surely knew they would see great things made by your hands.

Thank you for sharing.

Welcome I was wondering about your avatar. When I was in NC I use to buy the puzzle piece from the Autisic teachers. They are special children.

welcome from MN - your quilts are stunning - I especially love the first sun bonnet sue (on my list to make, one of these days!)!

I like to work in a clutter-free area also, but if I had to clear everytime I started something new, I 'd never start. I'm a box and zip-loc- bag person. What I do is gather the leftovers from the completed/set-aside project into a box or zip-loc bag, label and stack it neatly and get going on the new project. That's pretty ADD, but it works for me. :oops:
