I'm struggling with mine for Rhonda.
I feel really bad that it's taking me this long to do such a little simple quilt, but then again.....being on a pebble, we don't have much. Maybe I'll just embroider a pebble on some fabric and call it good. lol

Sounds good to me, Terri!! And I am REALLY happy I was NOT last to send. I was worried...I got too busy with our quilt show, and then was just too tired to do anything for a couple of days. I can't wait to see what it is you are struggling so hard with, Terri!!! I am sure Rhonda will just love it for all the extra blood, sweat and tears you are putting in it!!

Rhonda, I love the soy bean story!! I am sure if my grandfather had that vision he would have grown them...he was pretty progressive for his time. I have lots of memories of my family's farms, and riding the cattle, feeding the animals, climbing up in the haylofts, swimming in the ponds....lots of stuff!! For a little city girl, that was pure, wonderful, joyful fun!!

LOL I never rode the cows tho I loved to pet them. My other grandpa had a really large dog Jack(probably part great dane) and I used to ride Jack back beside my grandpa to go bring the cows up for milking. Yup lots of memories! I will continue walking down memory lane on my PDA and quit sidetracking this thread!! LOL

Oh, I love these last quilts! What a great job everyone's done!

Here'a another wonderful quilt -- I got it from 978 Gray! She lives in Massachusetts and this is her first doll quilt. She's also a new quilter...isn't this great? She selected a Colonial theme printed on the blocks. The ship is for the Boston/Salem seaports; the building is the House of Representatives on Beacon Hill; the people are colonialists and the animal are for the farming culture of our forefathers that was prevelant before the Industrial Revolution.

I just love it...thank you so much! My DH gives it a BIG thumbs up too! You did a great job on your binding...can't believe you're new at this!

I have just wrapped up your quilt and it is in the washer. It is going to the post office first thing tomorrow. I'm sorry it is late, but it's on it's way.

Such a nice Massachusetts quilt! It's like a fun history lesson. If they would have taught history with quilts, I might be a scholar now! You guys are outdoing yourselves with these quilts!
