Beautiful jewel tones--that would brighten up any day.

I really admire the applique. It's lovely and something I know I wouldn't have the patience for.

This is a queen sized quilt I pieced on my 1953 301a....but I quilted it on my shortarm on frame. It was for my stepson's wedding. They love it!! They picked the colors.

happyquiltmom that is a really pretty table topper. I love making table decos...so fun and fast, and have a great impact on the home decor!

More great quilts! I love them all.

Irishrose - wonderful bright colours, and well done on the quilting! I'm not sure whether an all-over meander is something I will ever try, sounds scary.

Jljack - great job with such muted colours. They definitely needed to be kept in large pieces.

Happyquiltmom - lovely applique. It looks so nice finished with the blanket stitch.
