AWW, you guys warm my heart. When I was married we used separate covers, too. I didn't think it was so weird but once I told someone my ex was beside himself to hush me up. YEAH RIGHT. At least my both sides were covered.

Us too! DH and I are both blanket hogs, and he is a night sweater and sticks to me...its gross lol. He uses a heavy comforter, I use my very old and needing replacing, fuzzy blanket. I have no idea what its made of, lol.
Blessings, Ruth

I have the first quilt I ever made on my bed. Took a class at school. The teacher didn't say start with something small. I need a queen size so that's what I bought (and cut) fabric for. Took 10 years to finally finish. Some blocks are hand pieced, some are machine. Points cut off, seams don't match-but I made it. Finally tied it because I wouldn't pay the money for it to be machine quilted. Now I mostly make baby quilts.

I had this on my bed for years, now the poor thing sits in the closet. It's just a little larger than a queen, but smaller than a king, now I have a lap quilt at the end of my bed. It's just to hard to me now to do such large quilts.
Hand pieced, hand quilted

I added the outer red border and then handquilted it.

I finished my kaleidoscope quilt this past summer, after working on it (off and on, you know how it goes) for about a year and a half. It didn't matter that it was 100 degrees outside. I was sleeping under that dang quilt! When it gets colder, I'll put a comforter under it :-)
