    The quilt I have in my avatar is my 3 yr process. I wanted to do an appliqued quilt so badly. But part way through it I began to hate it. So some great people came along side of me to help )(meaning I LA quilted for them they did what they were good at!)( My biggest deal on this quilt was: I wanted to McTavish... I love doing it. It turned out great. When I showed it at a retreat in CA, and a lovely lady said I want to buy your quilt, and she did. I went to the vineyard they owned and she showed me the tower where their bedroom was, and it looked beautiful in that room, like it was made for it.

    I did all the quilting free hand, totally loved the design aspect of the quilting.

    After showing my quilts for a long time, I recently changed mine to my horse. Gotta live up to my user name :D

    The quilt is spectacular! I can see why you use it as your Avatar! My is a Woolie Mammoth because although I do all kinds of quilting, wool is one of my passions! and I write a blog about all things quilting in Central Oregon which is all so called Woolie Mammoth which can be accessed in my signature.

    Mine is the quilt I made for my MIL. When she passed the quilt came back to me. She loved puple big time. It's the stack'n'slash method.

    I'm planning on changing my Avatar every couple weeks, as I have so many beautiful quilts to share. Love hearing the stories... Like the cute little ones in the avatars, who are they? One of my Granddaughter's was in the Angel quilt I did.
    All the pets, I love that. I'll do one of my chickens also. It'll be never ending changes. Look for them.
