    Your work is so nice. I can see you've been doing this for a while. And donation quilts, too. What a good person you are.

While working on one of them (the red/blue Ohio Star), I found out the child I was making it for was not as old as I had thought (turned 7 the day I was working on it. I thought he was like 10 or 11), so I finished what I started (I literally had the outside border to add on when I found out it was his "7th" b-day, rededicated it to to an adult and started from scratch on another I-spy quilt ("Kade" one) for him. So here is the balance of those.

    It will take me a little longer to finish the last one since it is paper pieced, plus I am debating on changing the entire design of the quilt to something different.

    These have been fun and I wish I had time to finish all of the adult quilts before starting the quilting process but I think that would really be pushing my luck. I do have a back-up plan on the adult quilts however. 4 of them live out of town (2 - way out, like out of state out), so they are the next 4 quilts on the list outside of these 14 kids quilts. I figure the rest I can hand deliver after Christmas as needed since everyone else literally lives within 5 miles of us. But I will press on and see how far I get.

    Thanks for stopping for a peek and have a great quilty weekend!
    I wish I could do so many at any given time. They are beautiful!

    Oh my goodness! Your quilts are just lovely ... but have you even stopped to eat? Haha I use the same expression (on a mission) when I'm fired up to get something done so I get where you are coming from. Keep up the great work.

    What a great collection of quilts! It took me a minute to see Kade in the eye-spy but I think I'm going to use your idea and design mine with the name in the middle. I love that pattern! I really like how the borders on your quilts reflect the central pattern.
