    Seems there is always a worthy cause in our small town. Here are a couple quilts I have made recently to donate. I am new to quilting, and have a hard time following patterns - so I make them up as I go along. Some have panels and some are just pieced - I usually put something on the back because I don't like plain material. Made the "5 little monkeys" quilt but haven't gotten it bound yet - and I'm not good at taking photos, either.

    NOW - if I can ever get down the 1/4" straight sewing, I'll tackle something with a pattern.

    Did it fmq meandering - until my new Babylock Quest bit the dust. Waiting for repairs, taking a long time. Now sewing on a $99 Singer I bought at Walmart.
