    Just wanted to share the quilts I have made for my 5 Grandkids for Christmas. When I saw the tutorial from Missouri quilt on the pillowcases I just had to try them and made 5 matching ones to bag them. I'll put a bow and tag on them for under the tree but if I have time, I might embroider their names on the pillowcases. 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.

    When you get into something you really go all out! And it definitely looks like your into quilting!! Great job and the pillowcases to go with the quilt is a very nice idea.

    what I learned from this site and the many wonderful quilters is....do what you like, it's all good. That gave me the confidence to try new things. At first I thought I would be under all kinds of scrutiny but the quilting world is wonderful. Thank you all. Happy Thanksgiving to you all too.
