I posted a photo of this quilt when I just had the top done. Now it is DONE! Quilted, binding one and ready to wrap. Now it is on to the next Christmas gift - a queen size quilt.

...and me working on it.

Are these for last Christmas or next Christmas?
I am working on one I promised for last year.

I love it. I plan to make a kids quilt top using a fabric book panel, too. This shows me how good it can look! I encourage children reading any way I can!

They are Christmas 2011. If I don't start my gifts now they will not make it in time.

Lawsie Me! ..... Do we have to put on make-up to quilt? ??!...

You did yourself proud (truly lovely) - but you sure raised the bar for the rest of us :|

I really like what you have done with the quilt .... someone is going to be mighty proud of you ...... lots of hugs on the horizon, eh?

Thanks for sharing ..... :thumbup:

Beautiful quilt and you are beautiful too. Good for you to get gifts made early. I don't think I will be any this year. I said this last year also and I ended up making four at the last minute, finished the last Christmas Eve Morn, a few hours before I gave it away.

Well, I have to say that makes me feel better...hahaha. I've been practicing FMQ on my domestic sewing machine & when I saw you sitting in front of your sewing machine & then saw your quilting I wanted to take lessons from you! It looks really good.
