    I finished my first named quilt today. It's called "Fun and Done from HELL". You name it and it went wrong. SOOOOOO glad to be "done" with it.

    And a few others.

    Saw this pattern in Greenville, IL. at a quilt shop. It was made in blues and the shop owners were very gracious and gave me copies of the pattern. It was a mystry quilt.

    This was going to be the back for my Dad's lap quilt. Couldn't get it straight when trying to machine quilt, so how it is going to be a separate top.

    Another for me-until my Mom saw it.

    Great work! Glad you are got away from Hell. It looks fine, but it's no fun working on something you don't enjoy.
    What's the name of your last pattern that you are now giving your sister? (You could tell her to wait for the next one!) It's very nice.

    It will take me a little to find it, sewing room looks like a hurricane passed through at the moment and I did this almost a year ago. I am very bad about documentation! lol

    They are all great!! I am partial to the cat quilt. I love the fabric you used. That pink one is really neat too. I also wonder about the pattern.....

    The name is Squares upon Squares. I got it from quilterscache.com. (Need to find out how to do the links). And I want to thank you for asking about the pattern as I found a couple things I was looking for a while back.
