    Welcome from Maine, your dragonfly quilt is absolutely gorgeous, I just love it. Your "outdoor" guy quilt is like nothing I have ever seen, and it's awesome. It made me chuckle because all I could think of was snuggling under it reading a romance book.

    Thanks for the comments everyone! Since my pedal came in, I've finished 2 quilts, made another top, did the cutting for a new one, and practiced a little FMQ. Its been fun!

    That pretty much sums it up! I've only seen the outdoorsy guys & the cowboys. I think I need to see these others

    Those are wonderful quilts especially since they are your first! I'm impressed. Love the dragonflies - my favorite!

    They're all beautiful, but the second is my favorite. You just showed me that Rail Fence quilts don't have to be bland!

    Lovely quilt tops! Your fussy cut outdoorsy guys are charming. I have some of that purple/dragonfly fabric. I like what you did with it.
