    Hi everyone! I am posting the most spectacular "Show Us Where You are From" doll quilt! :) roda did a magnificent job and I am so proud to have been her partner. I am part indian (mother's side.. her mom was american indian). She captured all the native elements and with the most captivating colors! Thank you again roda, I just love it.

    Oh, I forgot to mention that there is machine embroidery, applique` and piecing !

    NorBanaQuilts sent me this lovely Bear Paw inspired DQ she calls "Bears of Penna". BP block is 15 inches. Donna, what a great job of piecing and MQ. The watermelon bears make this a great summer table runner, too. Why am I thinking "Waltzing with Bears?" The pieced backing has a panel of deer which are also plentiful in PA. Iowa, too. Thanks again.
