Here are some pictures of my Christmas quilts. I'm an old fashioned girl. I have always loved quilting, I just never knew how to quilt. Now I can quilt the top but do not know how to quilt the whole thing together. My grandmother always tacked her quilts, so that's what I do. I figure that by the time I learn how to machine quilt i will be ready to die. That's the only thing that makes me wish for more time on this earth. I love to quilt, I can't express how I much I enjoy cutting material and sewing it into something. My husband does not understand, what he calls cutting a whole piece of cloth into pieces. Whatever, here are my pictures of quilts I have finished in the last three weeks.

Beautiful tied quilts. I like them, too. My grandmother and Mama did those as well as the quilted ones.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Happy quilting in the New Year.

You did a great job. I tie my quilts too because they wont fit in my sewing machine. They hold up well and look antigue.

Very beautiful quilts

LivelyLady 12-24-2010 07:46 PM

So pretty! My grandmother tied her quilts too.

Your quilts are beautiful and I just love the way that you expressed yourself. It's obvious to me that you're a good enough quilt maker to quilt if you chose not to tie them, you could quilt by hand or machine. I like the old fashioned looks too so I tend to keep my quilting simple and straighforward which is beneficial due to my quilting abilities, lol! Please keep posting as you go along and have a great weekend!

We always tied quilts when I was growing up. With 6 kids my Mother didn't have time to actually quilt all the bedding we needed.

Nanjun 12-25-2010 04:56 AM

All are so petty. Such inspirations

Quilts are beautiful ! I hand quilt, I haven't got the nerve to try machine quilting. Hand quilting is very relaxing.
I tie some a long time ago, I like that also.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year !!

Your quilts are gorgeous. You have a real eye for color and the piecing is perfect.


I figure that by the time I learn how to machine quilt i will be ready to die.
I felt that way too but with practice I'm feeling more confident. My best yet is the quilt for my grandson that I finished yesterday. I'm beginning to think there's hope for me. Give it a try. Start small and be patient. It's never too late to learn something new.

WOW! What a lovely array of quilts :D:D:D

TexasSunshine 12-25-2010 02:32 PM

Your quilts and colors are great. Those patterns could be stitched in the ditch. That is fairly simple and does not have to be real precise.

rootyr 12-25-2010 02:55 PM

Very nice!
