    Jillnjo, Wow, can't believe your handquilting! Very nice. Love the Amish colors you chose.

    IrelandDragonQuilting, thanks for showing us your "wall!" The DQs look amazing!

    K.-Gorgeous little quilt! love your colors, and tiny blocks.

    Buzz-very good tale you spun!! Tell us more about your doll room and what goes on in there!


    Dragon- I love the log cabin on your wall! And the scrappy beside it...... all of them are special.

    I do love to hand quilt. I seldom choose it, though, as it is time comsuming. I am too caught up in the spirit of hurrying up and getting to the next idea! I told myself to slow down and put a quilt in my nice frame for the winter months.

    I should tell you about my doll quilts! They are all over my house, laying and hanging and rolled up and......! Anyway, we had July 4th company and a cousin of mine said,"What are all these little "things" I see all around your home?" She is a wonderful seamstress, but not into quilting at all and I figure she was wondering about me!!

    CrazyQuiltinRobin- I must tell you that MY crazy quilt from you lays on the front table where guests come in the door and it has been admired many times!! With real admiration, I tell you.

    I am more fond of all my swapped quilts than ever. I recently put them all together and admired them again. It seems like I miss seeing all the details on each one when I first get them and something new pops out at me all over again..
