    Here are two more quilts that I just got back from the quilter. The first one is a queen size that I made for my Mom and Dad. They have a lot to celebrate this year. My Dad turned 70, Mom will be 65 next month, October is their 45 Wedding anniversary, and Mom is going to retire this year. So we are going to have a big Celebration Party for them this fall. The second one is a baby quilt that I have made for my neice's baby boy who should join this world the middle of Sept.

    Absolutely Gorgeous! I'd sure take them off of your hands!LOL. I have a cousin (in law) who loves Mickey Mouse, she's pregnant now and is doing the baby's room in Mickey and she would absolutely fall in love with this one.

    Yes, My kitty (Oreo) has helped me make all of my quilts. She likes to sit on my table on top of all of the fabric. I just have to really watch her because we also have a puppy and if Oreo knocks down any of the fabric then the puppy thinks that she has a new chew toy.

    The quilts are wonderful!!! I wish I had a quilter! LOL Actually I don't mind machine quilting...its handstitching the binding down that I don't care for... I get to that point and usually a project will sit for a few more days before I get back to it to finish it up! I don't care for the way a binding looks when it is machine stitched down or I would do it that way!

    Anyway, lovely quilts! Congrats on getting them done!
