:shock: Wow 8 in such a short time, now I know I am programed for SLOW. I have been seriously (I thought) working on a large lap quilt this year and still haven't finished. Yes, I was interupted for a short while I finished another top I turned into a lap quilt for a grad gift. I guess though since I have pets and Dad to feed that does make a little difference. Thanks for sharing you lovely picture. Beautiful work. Wish we could have seen the others too! I guess you know there isn't a cure for the quilting bug, not that any of us would want to be any way. Right all.

Thank you for your kind words. I am disabled so don't get out much, live in an apartment so no yard work and not much house work or cooking for just me. I am a very early riser (4:00 am) so have to have quiet things to do until everyone else in the building is stirring. I am going to try and post some of the others when I get this picture thing all figured out. I thing getting the other one on was an accident, hasn't worked since. I keep a log on the computer of all my work so I can go back and look at it since they have all left the house as soon as the last stitch is in. If this works this is the first quilt I made, queen size for myself.

Jane, That is beautiful!!

Keep it up . It great to have something we enjoy doing
betty

Thanks for the kind words. I love every minute from cutting to piecing and then the calming effect of sitting and quilting. I live alone and am disabled (age 65), I started in January of this year and have not stopped since nor do I intend to, so much fabric, so little time!!!

I always make my quilts whether they be twin, queen or king large enough to use as comfortors and make matching shams.

both quilts are absoultly beauitful. You do wonderful work. Looking forward to see more.

That is a very pretty quilt!!! I think I have some of that batik. That's one advantage of shopping at Walmart. When I have cleaned out my own store, I can call a girlfriend in another state to have her pick some up at her store and mail it to me! :mrgreen:

jane this is a very beautiful quilt. love your color choice.

Thanks for the compliment. I feel like such an amatuer when I see some of the quilts posted and see talk about taking classes. I just bought a packet of patterns at walmart, chose one and dove in head first.
