    These are the quilts I started piecing in 2006/2008 . The Car Quilt was my husbands Christmas gift I started in 2006. I got my Crown Jewel in Sept. 2010. Got it up and running in Dec. So he recieved his gift on Christmas 4 years later. Never to late.
    The Butterfly Quilt , was a class I took in 2008 " Quilting With Corners"by Cheryl Phillips @ my local quilt shop. I desided to make it a King Size. It was a wedding gift for a very close friend.

    great quilts! It is so much fun to make, and fun to give as gifts. My sister did the butterfly one, that is gorgeous.

    Both are wonderful quilts. You must have enjoyed making them with the special people in mind.

    I like them both. I have been wanting to do the butterfly since I love bargellos.
