Living the American Dream

This is a Row Robin from this forum (a few years back and FINALLY finished). It is going to friends of ours who moved here from Germany - hence the name.

This is from a row robin. I pulled my blocks from the "It's OK if you sit on my quilt" book. (Love that book)

Thanks for all the nice comments, ladies.

Lots of times I make a quilt with someone in mind. From the beginning I think of it as "their" quilt, not mine. Then it is really easy to let it go. IF I am really enamored with it, I can always make another one for me. I still have some red-white-and-blue ambitions in me. So stay tuned.

MargeD 08-13-2015 12:55 PM

What a truly gorgeous quilt, I'm sure the recipients will be happy to receive it.

Jingle 08-13-2015 01:04 PM

Beautiful quilt.
I am finishing up my 4th red,white, blue and black lap sized quilts I am making to donate at Christmas. I have others too. I make so many quilts that I need to find homes for them. All my kids, grandkids and great grands have all they want.

ccthomas 08-13-2015 05:07 PM

ukdame 08-13-2015 07:17 PM
