Finally, one for me.

I made each granddaughter a quilt. I made my daughter a quilt. Apparently, I made my dog one too (if anyone remembers my old post about my dog taking the lap quilt outside through the puppy door) and all this while I didn't have one for my bed.

So I took the scraps from my daughter's log cabin I made her for Christmas and used some material I got from her as a swap the last time I visited and made me a quick and easy rail fence (and very warm) quilt for MY bed.

This is a beautiful quilt! What insight to use those scraps and the blue is so calming.

Good for you. It's beautiful too. I finally made one for my bed as well - A Trip Around the World. It's a good feeling to go into my bedroom and say " I made that".

Aren't we always the last person on the list to get a quilt? Your blue Rail Fence looks lovely on your bed. It matches the paint and is so pretty.

Very pretty quilt. I made all my kids, husband and mom quilts before I made myself a lap quilt. Mom has 6 quilts. They all have table toppers, too. My grandson has 4 quilts, a quilt for his teddy and 3 reversible mug rugs and a dozen cloth books. I am planning his 5th quilt for his 7th birthday. We deserve a quilt so good for you.

Do you remember, years ago, when someone asked you ,"why is it, you make all these beautiful quilts and the ones on your bed are bought?"

ranbro 03-07-2012 05:21 AM

That quilt looks so peaceful.

coldquilter 03-07-2012 05:47 AM

The one who dies with the most fabric wins.

So what did you use to make it warm? I like warm quilts!
