    Default What I've been busy with since retirement
    Me and my machines have been busy since my retirement the last of May. The first one is from "Bargello's with a Twist. It fits a queen size bed. I didn't even see the pattern until I took the picture after it was layed out. The second one is a blue baby quilt I made without a pattern. It kind of went together like a log cabin.

    Your retirement is off to a good start. What better way to enjoy it than to do what you enjoy the most. Beautiful quilts. Happy retirement and quilting.

    They're both beautiful, but I especially like the red one. The fabrics you used give a lot of movement to the bargello.

    The flames - I know lots of young men who would love that quilt. The baby quilt is darling - a star for the star of Mommy and Daddys' heart!
