Thank you all so much! I haven't been quilting for very long--these are 2, 3, & 4 of the four biggest quilts I have made :) My first big quilt I made for my mom and forgot to take a picture of it. I have made maybe six to eight baby size quilts. I have two more children who are asking "when are you going to do mine?"

I have to thank everyone here for sharing their quilting knowledge so freely! I have sat back and read so many threads here for quite a while now and have learned so much from all of you--so my biggest Thanks to you all! My mother-in-law quilts, but is very conservative with what knowledge she shares-- most of my knowledge has been self-taught through the internet and of course...this board!

I love the last one with the Bliss Fabric. What pattern did you use for this? So beautiful. Thanks for sharing

Here is the link to the pattern I used. http://www.quiltville.com/striptwist.shtml It was a freebie pattern on the internet, called "Strip Twist." I wasn't able to accomplish the "moving or rotation" in the quilt but I like how it turned out anyway :)
