Christmas, Labyrinth Walk and Punch Quilts
 
8 Attachment(s)
These are the last three quilts I have completed. The first quilt is the pattern Ripples by Wilmington Prints. It is adding some Christmas cheer to my family room.

The Second quilt is Labyrinth Walk by Christopher Florence. I made this quilt for my husband. I like the masculine look.

The last quilt is Punch by Coach House Designs. I will donate this quilt to a local organization that helps the homeless and low income families in our area. They always appreciate my donations. It looks suited to a young girl. I will drop it off this week.

Our koi fish stay in the backyard pond all winter. We stop feeding them in the winter and they hardly move at all.

They are all Very well done!!! I'm enjoying your icy landscape, but glad I can sit in the sunshine here in AZ.

All nice! Really love the Christmas one and the beautiful Snow on the pond! Happy to see it from Sunny Florida! Lived in NYC once!

Three very nice quilts!

i see all the koi in one spot.
do you know that the blak are highly prized. they don't get all that big because they have terrible eyesight, and have a hard time seeing food. just a little bit of trivia.

love the quilts, and i see your inspector approves also.

Love all 3 quilts, but I've never been able to resist a Christmas one. Someday, I will make myself one -- I tell myself that every year! Love your backyard pond with all the snow -- I love snow! And your kitty looks like she's definitely in charge! Thanks for sharing your photos!

What great quilts! I really like the Christmas one. It's so festive. Pretty kitty too! My daughter has those fish in her pond in CO. They had 30 I think she said. Now they have 6 because the magpies were eating them when the weather was warmer.

Great quilts and pictures!

QUILTNMO 12-18-2016 04:13 PM

Very nice--wish I was on your Christmas list

JuneBillie 12-18-2016 05:05 PM

Very nice quilts. My favorite is the first. Love your fish, and your kitty.

pattypurple 12-18-2016 05:55 PM

The labyrinth quilt is almost the same colors I made mine. But yours is finished. I still need to put borders on and have it quilted. How did you quilt yours? I'm still looking for ideas for mine.

Sync 12-18-2016 06:47 PM

Love all three quilts. Your quilt inspector looks ready to inspect your next quilt.

Your koi are big! We leave the pump running to aerate the water and keep it moving so the surface doesn't freeze everywhere. I think this might be our koi's 6th winter. We have herons that stole several of our fish.

Lovely work. I also like seeing your winter landscape and koi.

What a beautiful backyard scene! how nice to have the pond with pretty koi fish. We are having a cold spell here in Phoenix it only got up to 62 degrees today. I don't think that I could handle the snowy weather you have! Thanks for sharing the pictures of your nice quilts.

Beautiful quilts. Love your pond and your kitty is adorable. Merry Christmas!

MOBRIDGE MOM 12-19-2016 06:52 AM

Beautiful Quilts!!! I wish I could have a koi pond like that. Do you have to heat it in the winter or are you far enough south that it stays open?

needles3thread 12-19-2016 07:53 AM

I really love the last picture and the fact that you give help to the needy with quilts.

Mariposa 12-19-2016 07:59 AM

Terrific variety of quilts! And sweet of you to donate one for someone less fortunate.
Fun to see the koi in the pond, with all that snow around! Have a Merry Christmas!

Homespun 12-19-2016 08:13 AM

Beautiful works!

RedGarnet222 12-19-2016 09:59 AM

Each one is absolutely wonderful!

soozieQ 12-19-2016 02:14 PM

Great quilts but like the Christmas one the best. Love your kitty and pond

We do have heaters in the pond and two waterfalls run to keep the water aerated. Blue herons are the predators in this area that eat koi. Fortunately, now our fish are too big for the heron to get.

Awesome quilts! ...and kitty cat. We have a new kitten that found us that looks almost like your cat, except add a black chin. Thanks for sharing your pretty quilts with us.

MargeD 12-20-2016 05:04 AM

love your quilts, and you have a beautiful quilt inspector. Merry Christmas. Beautiful snowy picture. Is that a coy pond?

anorton 12-20-2016 05:52 AM

All three so very pretty!

quiltmaker52 12-20-2016 07:31 AM

Wow! They are gorgeous. You have been really busy. I especially like the Christmas one.

twinkie 12-20-2016 02:53 PM

love your CHRISTmas quilt. Your fur baby is darling

Taughtby Grandma 12-20-2016 06:41 PM

Beautiful quilts, your kitty thinks it's great you make her such a comfy nap place. The koi pond looks cooooold.

coopah 12-20-2016 06:52 PM

Thanks for sharing your quilts, kitty, and koi. Lots to keep you busy! Nice work on the quilts.

sJens 12-21-2016 01:23 PM

Fantastic quilts and quilts.

QuiltnLady1 12-21-2016 02:26 PM

Great quilts but the Christmas one is my favorite. What fun the Koi pond must be -- I am amazed that they make it through the winter in the colder climates. Love your cat -- looks like our flower who has been gone many years.

sewbizgirl 12-21-2016 02:30 PM

All are so nice, but I LOVE that red Christmas quilt! It really made me smile. Love your FurBurger, too!

SewCraftyGirl 12-21-2016 03:08 PM

All three look great, but your fabric choices make the first one my favorite! So festive!

GrammaTerry 12-21-2016 05:07 PM

Beautiful quilts and pond. I made a labryrinth walk for my 13 year old grandson and he love it. I should post a pic. The others are beautiful also.
