I don't know what I was thinking when I actually thought I could finish these for Christmas......I'm in retail so I have NO extra time. These are my 2 first big quilting projects. I've sewn all my life and did some quilting quite a few years ago but just got started again in August. What fun, and like everyone else, I'm hooked!

Pat, how cool your flip flop quilt is....did you have a pattern? My grand daughters would love it. The yellow brick road quilt is beautiful.

The flip-flop quilt is a pattern from Karie Patch Designs called "Fun In the Sun". http://www.kariepatch.com/store/Default.asp

I got the Yellow Brick Road pattern at a LQS in Lancaster, but google it and you'll find it readily available.
