Mine is of our 3 kitties, VooDoo, Tucker, and Nubby on a quilt my mother made for me back in the 70's. Haven't figured out how to change the pic to something else. When my Mom made the quilt she used cardboard templets and cut them out with scissors. It's a lone star and all of her points match up beautiful. It was only her 2nd or 3rd quilt but no one ever told her they were hard to do and she just jumped in and did it.

Mine is of the earrings made for the Christmas season. Not only do I sew, I also string beads for necklaces & braclets & earrings. Working on quilts & quilting, so somewhere in the future the earrings will be replaced with something else.

Beautiful quilt!..
My Avatar is my baby Miss Bella... she's "my" cat. She has to be where I am.. I go to the bathroom, she has to go with me, I do dishes, she sits on the stool by the bar and watches, I sew, she has to be laying on my ironing board, etc.. she's just my baby... I'd be so lost without her around.

I can't tell much difference between stuff that reads as a red, pink, orange, some of those reddy purples. He makes sure I don't clash.

My avatar is the crib sized quilt that I made when my youngest daughter was born last year. I didn't know if I was having a boy or a girl, so I used red and brown. It also helped my skill level with flying geese, since I had to make a lot of them for the quilt.

He has an amazing eye for color. Art is really his thing. He thinks sewing is for girls, so he doesn't really want much to do with the quilts, but he hates it when colors don't go together.
