I just learned how to quilt in April and have loved learning all the tricks from this site. Too bad I started at 59...the eyes are going fast.

Sorry, you guys are fast...I didn't get to include the other 3. Thanks for looking.

You are a super Grandma. Enjoy those little ones. :-D

All are easy patterns. The disappearing 9 patch was the fastest (the one with the softball blocks). The attic window uses a half square triangle to make the corner instead of making an angle cut. I don't ever use a pattern that requires triangles...it has to be a HST that is done the easy method of sewing all around two squares and cutting in half. The windmills are done the same way...

see the bottom right corner is HST

I want to be one your grand kids! Just lovely. And I really like the idea of making the pillow case to go with it. I think I'm going to use that one!!

Beautiful quilts and so are the pillowcases. Your grandchildren will love them. I just started making pillowcases, they are so much fun too make.
