Lovely, lovely, lovely. None are quickie quilts but all are interesting and individual. You are on a mission! I keep looking back to choose a favorite and I just can't pick one! You are blessing your family with beauty and warmth.

Thank you. I am having a hard time choosing my favorite as well. The one you are asking about is the jewel box block set in sashings. No particular pattern.

There is a pattern for the "jewel box", I called it shadow somethings. I thought I got it from Missouri Star Quilt. Not navigating real good. My avatar cat is sick....won't get out of her bed.

My mind doesn’t think quickie designs that’s for sure. That is what has created the time crunch problem. Lol. I can’t pick a favorite either. I do lean towards the shadow box and the orange and blue one (my variation of “All roads”).

I am going to finish the last quilt top then start quilting all of these quilts. I plan to do a simple stipple on them because it is quick and it won’t take away from the designs. I have found that the more ornate the quilting the more likely the quilts won’t be used, so quick and easy is the plan.

Thank you. Yes my mind wonders a l o t! I find designs online that I like and in my quilting program or make them up/alter them as I go. Coming up with 31 different yet. It terribly hard designs has also been a challenge. I have two left to redesign in the entire collection.

All of them are fun designs and will be loved by the recipients. I especially like the addition of KADE in the I-spy quilt. I can tell you have put a lot of thought, time, and work into each and every one.
