    Default 2 Maxines
    I spent time in Sept. camping with my BFF and her husband in Yosemite. We both get a kick out of Maxine, so when I saw a couple of Maxine panels re: traveling the USA, I thought she'd enjoy a quilt for the camper using these fabrics. [ATTACH=CONFIG]382642[/ATTACH] This is the front of the quilt. I made the back using a different panel. The border on the backing is Maxine's blah, blah, blah.[ATTACH=CONFIG]382643[/ATTACH]
    Since I had extra blocks, this is what I made for my sister-in-law for Christmas.[ATTACH=CONFIG]382644[/ATTACH]Backing on this one is a red, white, blue fireworks display.
    It was fun making these quilts. I giggled every time I read one of Maxine's maxims.

    What a wonderful gift for your friend and sister-in-law.
    Not only will they feel loved using the quilts, they'll have a giggle too! Can't beat that.
