Ohmigosh. These are gorgeous! I especially love the last one. Is that called the whigrose? Or am I confusing it with another block pattern. Rosemary you are SO talented!!!

Rosemary both of your quilts are wonderful. Your hand quilting is awesome. That's one thing that I don't do. I guess I should learn how but I know I am never making a big quilt. CT I really love those tiny hexies. Maybe I'll give it a try. I think that Fiskars has a punch that size. I also make yoyos and here is a doll quilt and the bed it goes on.
Snow again today. I've already been out to shovel twice and debating a third time before I have to pick her up from school. Sick of snow
Everyone have a great day

I have one of those clowns. I got it a few years ago at an estate sale. They now have patterns at JoAnn's for them. I thought we'd see some pc pics today. Here's a pic of my newest hexie that I'm working on. 7 big flowers and 10 half ones.

Wow, Pat, lovely yo-yo quilt! The penny is a great idea to let us know exactly how small the yo-yo's are. Sweet little doll bed! I want to make yo-yo's, too, but right now I have enough on my plate. Just finished the top of a baby quilt & after quilting it will have to get a t-shirt quilt done by the end of April. Yes, I think that's pushing it, but the girl who wants it will be moving out-of-state in May.
Elisabrat, my house is festooned with cows -- black & white ones. When I lived in Ireland, the house we rented was on a farm, & the farmer had 5 cows. Well, actually, 4 bullocks & one little red bull. I thought it was heavenly having the cows there. They liked to gather in front of the huge kitchen window & stare inside! I named them all. I still remember the day the guy came to the farm to turn the little bull into a bullock -- I heard his screams clearly. Eventually they went off to market (or wherever). I did not name their replacements.

Thanks for all the compliments on my quilts, I won't do anymore that big, but do them about twin size or throw size, putting binding on for two gals this week, hope to have them done by Monday so I can take them to them on Tuesday, have a Ladybug meeting... Love all the pictures of the hexies and yo-yo's. One of the young gals that came with us to the meeting today ( guild) loved the Cathedral Window quilt so will show her how the next time I see her, will make her samples to go by... Will then get her and her sister into the hexies.. LOL NOt sure of the name of that quilt, was my first Applique quilt...
