2 Maxines
 
3 Attachment(s)
I spent time in Sept. camping with my BFF and her husband in Yosemite. We both get a kick out of Maxine, so when I saw a couple of Maxine panels re: traveling the USA, I thought she'd enjoy a quilt for the camper using these fabrics. [ATTACH=CONFIG]382642[/ATTACH] This is the front of the quilt. I made the back using a different panel. The border on the backing is Maxine's blah, blah, blah.[ATTACH=CONFIG]382643[/ATTACH]
Since I had extra blocks, this is what I made for my sister-in-law for Christmas.[ATTACH=CONFIG]382644[/ATTACH]Backing on this one is a red, white, blue fireworks display.
It was fun making these quilts. I giggled every time I read one of Maxine's maxims.

What a wonderful gift for your friend and sister-in-law.
Not only will they feel loved using the quilts, they'll have a giggle too! Can't beat that.

DEJAHG, I ordered the panels online from eQuilter. They had the blah, blah, blah fabric also.

So adorable. I have some Maxine fabric I have had about two years now, to make a quilt for my mother. Thanks for the inspiration.
