Finally I'm feeling brave enough to post some pictures of my quilts.

The 1st one is the first quilt I ever made. I call it "all the men in my life" because it is made with flannel shirst of my Dad, Hubby, Brothers and both Grandpas.

The 2nd one is the one I made for a Christmas present for my nephew Corey.

How clever! Nice! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I think you did a Beautiful job...I especially like the flannel quilt...

Nice work on both! It's neat that you could use all the men's shirts for the first one!

What a wonderful idea the firt one is !!! :-D

Nice usage for the flannel! Looks really good.

I really like the flannel shirt quilt, nice work on both of these!! :-D

Wow I love your work!!! That first one is fun and you did such a nice job using plaids! Thanks so much for posting and being brave...you should be very proud :-D

Thanks for all your kind words.

The GFG quilt was the 1st quilt I made. I picked the design because I didn't have a sewing machine yet and the hand sewing looked easy. I hand quilted it and it won 1st place at the fair this year.

My nephews quilt is tied. I decided that I wan't going to put all my time in quilting it because it's just going to end up in a tangled lump at the foot of the bed anyway. LOL My nephew never makes his bed.

very nice,keep being brave post more pics

Great quilts! Be brave more often! :)

I love the thought behind the first quilt, and the second quilt is awesome too! :D:D:D

What a great idea for the hexagone quilt. I have been wanting to make a quilt like this and now I know I can and it will turn out beautiful Thank you so much for showing these!!

Great quilts!

Very nice quilts what a great idea to do with the shirts!Thanks for sharing and keep on posting!

Absolutely awesome! A well deserved first place, great design!

Very nice and very clever names for your quilts!

You should feel brave more often. I love your quilts. The first one is a wonderful quilt. What a great idea!

Very nice and so special

Love, Love, Love the flannel quilt! Wonderful design!

Good job!

what a beautiful quilt, and such warm memories for you.

I love them! Especially the tribute to 'all the men in your life'. Great flannels!
Blessings,

I like all your "plaids". Wish I had thought of that with all my Dad's soft shirts before he died and I gave them away.

I love your "men" quilt!! It has a lot of special meaning! I bet Corey will love his quilt!!! Good job!! :thumbup: :D

I like the use of the plaids! Great quilts!

The first one looks like an heirloom already. Good job on both quilts!

Wow, I think they are both really cool. Love the flannel flowers!

Lovely idea. I am laughing because all your men have compatible shirts- in our family there would be office shirts, farmer's work shirts, threadbare shirts (the one who throws nothing out) and some fairly "out there" metrosexual prints. Would be QUITE a patchwork!!

Those are both great quilts. I love the Grandmothers Flower garden. What a great memory quilt. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful 'man' quilts.

Love them. They look so warm and cozy.
Thank you for sharing them.

You did GREAT!! They are beautiful and will be cherished! Thanks for being brave and sharing!! :-D ;) ;)

Great job on both. Love the idea of using fabric from all your loved ones shirts.

I love that you used the shirts from the men in your life! Awesome memory quilt. You did a wonderful job. Gives me some idea of what to do for memory quilts. Thanks for sharing.

I love them especially the hexagons. Really neat idea.

Lovely and neat titels.

I love quilts with meaning. You can spend oodles on material but the ones that have all the charm, have a story. Good work on them both.

So are you hooked? Love the first quilt for the men in your life. What a great idea!

You did a great job!
