    My first I made for my Mom. I sent out a block to my brothers and sisters, their attachements and kids. They put something on the block that was "them". I stitched all the blocks and then put them together into a quilt. I've redone it several times as the kids keep having kids. I swear they are like bunnies!!!!


    The last is still in progress. For a young friend who is off to college.

    The first may be wonky but it is beautiful.

    I do have a photo somewhere... but it was taken with a film camera so who knows where it is! If I ever come across it, I'll post a pic. I still have the leftovers of the fabric, though! ; ) I do still have the next couple of things I made, though. One is a quilt that has spent the last 10 years on my son's bed- it's well used! The other is a watercolor wallhanging top that, sadly, is still UFO status. One of these days...

    My most recent is the quilt in my avatar, I'm still quilting it.

    These are close to the first and last quilt I made over the last 12 years or so. There are many more in between!
    All the posts are great!
    peace
