I am asking because due to the small size of the avatar pics it is sometimes difficult to pick out all the detail and identify the pattern. Thanks in advance for participating - can't wait to see your pics!!
    Here's mine. Design is 'Thinking Outside the Block' by Toadusew.com. Made for DD who just loves it!

    My avatar is not a quilt :cry: just my icon my from my site. All you ladies and men too have some great talent. The one that really caught my attention is from JNCT14.

    Looks like the quilt is in levels, sort of like a pyramid. Super.

    My quilt is my first quilt, it is a sampler from a quilting class I took about 12 years ago, and I can't remember every blocks name. It was hand pieced and I am still hand quilting it.

    Love your quilt and it's beautiful colors! Congrats on being brave enough to handquilt something so large! I have only done handquilting on small projects.

    Definetly not easy. Mine is just sitting waiting to be finished. The center looks like a tent in the middle. I finally got it pressed out thou. Not my favorite pattern.

    My Avatar was made years and year ago. I don't remember where I got the pattern. It is hanging in my sewing room over my machine.

    Mine is a pinwheel I made for a DGD. also a small wall hanging out of the scraps. Kind of blurry but can still see what it would look like.
