    Just beautiful,so creative and your fabric is outstanding and your choice of patterns are so original. You are a true artist.

    WOW and double WOW on the leopard quilt. What a great idea to challenge yourself to make a quilt from each of your quilt books. I would be challenging myself for 50 years or more. Well, not quite that many, but I have a lot of quilt books.

    Very good challenge. Now, no guilt for having bought the books. :^)

    Congratulations! Two beautiful quilts done and there's still 1/2 a year left! Have to admit I laughed out loud at your comment "This is harder than I thought." as I've felt the same with each challenge. Keep up the good work, and keep positing pictures!
