Electric! They looks so gorgeous on the beds. What presence they have when you enter the room!

Miss Kitty has claimed this beautiful quilt, she wears it well!

This French Braid looks like stained glass, breath-taking use of colors and pattern.

Finally made it to the (current) end of this thread and have greatly enjoyed this wonderful quilt show. Thought I'd add a few more that I made last year.

This first one is a top I donated as part of the effort to have 300 quilts ready for the opening of the new VA Hospital in Henderson, NV. When a vet leaves the hospital he or she will be able to take a quilt home with them.

Scrappy Stars
 

This is so pretty, love the alternating 16 patch? with the star blocks, looks like a large quilt, it is striking and your work is fantastic!

"Squeak"
 

This is a quilt I made from my Civil War reproduction scraps. Its name around here is "Squeak" because when I was about 3/4 done with it I decided to add a row to make it bigger and started running out of the blue fabric I used in the setting triangles. I had to piece several of them in order to have enough.

Squeak's Pieced Back
 

Made with the D9P method -- just arranged the blocks differently. Went through about half my stash of blue 5 inch squares.

Thank you quiltingcurious! I used an old traditional pattern called "Road to Oklahoma" -- loved the tie-in with my family history as my grandmother, who raised me, moved to Oklahoma in a covered wagon in 1896. She was 3 years old. (There's a funny family story about how the family got several miles down the road before they realized she wasn't in the wagon ... she had gone over a neighbor's farm to say goodbye to their new litter of pigs ... )

I made this quilt during a time of great financial hardship -- couldn't pay my rent, had to go to the food bank in order to eat, obviously had NO money for fabric. At all. I ended up swapping fabric with several online quilting friends so I'd have enough solids. I called it "Busy Signal on the Information Superhighway" and it's still one of my favorites.

Wedding Quilt Back
 

My final pic of the day is actually the back of my son's wedding quilt. The front was Judy Martin's "Shakespeare in the Park" done in the colors requested by the bride, burgundy and gold. I was only able to use 3 or 4 different fabrics and was bored with it before I had the fabric cut out.

So I decided to make the quilt I wanted to make for the back -- lots of colors. You can guess what happened -- everyone who sees the quilts looks at the front, turns it over and looks at the back, and decides they like the back the best!!

Ladynredd ... love your double sided quilts. I wouldn't even call the one side or the either the "back." They're awesome quilts themselves.
