What a treasure of love, especially done with love 2 times. What a picture of true love & devotion.

How precious! Now that is true art. Love the edging, love the hand work. What a treasure.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]457051[/ATTACH]One of my favorites is the Crazy Quilt I made. I used a lot of machine embroidery on it and it was a lot of fun since that embroidery machine was brand new at the time.

I have enjoyed seeing everyone's favorite quilts. Mine is a machine embroidered quilt "WildFlowers" design by Smith Street Designs. It is made with Batiks which is my favorite fabric. I loved every part of making this quilt.

What a wonderful way to have all your embroidery blocks be re-purposed into an adorable and useful new quilt.

hillcountrygal, I'm sure I'm with the rest of we Texans in a love for your Texas shaped quilt! Someday (years from now I'm sure) I hope to be good enough to make one. Corpus Christi here.

I love seeing all of your favorite quilts and hearing the stories about them.

It really is hard to pick a favorite, but I think mine is the first quilt I created and designed the pattern then made the quilt from it. It is a pink ribbon quilt and I made it as a comfort quilt by request. I have since made several others by special request, also.

My second favorite is probably my 4PP I called Sunrise Awakening. This was my first "art" quilt.

I have so many quilts I am very proud of, tho, and that are very loved by their owners. Each quilt that I create from my own design, especially for the recipient, has a great deal of my heart in them and as I look back thru, I love them best all over again!

Huggs and smilesss!!

All of the quilts are beautiful but the memory quilt is really special.

Oh, I can see while you're most proud of that! Unsewing an old quilt sounds tedious and a bit intimidating, but your results are wonderful.
