Wow Factor

Diane F also pieced this incredible feathered star, cowboy boot quilt. Wow! Possibly for the same newborn as previous entry .

i love feathered stars. It took 3 classes before i could manage just one acceptable block . It is also my husbands favorite block and he wanted a whole quilt made with these stars. He got a pillow instead. i could use that one block as a medallion and get a quilt out of it. Great idea Diane

Diane is one of the fantastic Panguitch quilter's . Others that i know of are Jerilu, Claudia, Lana, MaryLou, Nan, Jan Marie, and more . So...... The "Quilt Walk Festival 2011"-- Registration, will be appearing in about 1 month on the internet .. Just a heads up, Excitment Ahead.

On My Honor

Happy Birthday Boy Scouts... 100 years in 2010
What a great year to attain the rank of Eagle Scout..
Jane's grandson achieved his Eagle Scout rank this year, so she made him a fabulous quilt.. The back looks great too. She pieced a center medallion, using that great fabric on the market right now, with all the boy scout badges. Great quilt Jane.

Amy and Kristalee came to my rescue to piece two granddaughter quilts , so i could get them quilted before Christmas. Even with their help i didn't make the deadline(Christmas Eve).. i got one done on Christmas night and the other will happen. Thanks for the help ladies, and sorry i stressed you out .

It's Almost Here (will i make it?)

Jayne pieced this cute tree skirt, and i managed to quilt it only days before Christmas. She made Christmas Stockings for her family to match. so cute, love Riley Blake .
(you cant see it but i quilted holly leaves on it)
.........
(this picture is hilarious. it makes my home look all organized and Christmas-ee.. Big joke.... IT IS STAGED.... Holy cow i can't even get to the bottom of my kitchen table. Every horizontal space in the house has stuff on it. The month of December is always out of control for me, but this one has been particularly bad )

Fabulous Wholecloth

(great idea for an extremely fast quilt)
(yummy Riley Blake)Angie's 5 year old wore out her baby quilt, and her mommy was in a panic to get another .
( just adorable)
my personal believe is--- that the whole purpose of a quilt is to wear it out by loving it.
(loving it to pieces)

Amy Tripp (not the name she uses anymore) pieced this incredible UofU quilt for her husband. It's a surprize Christmas present. Amy did such a great job designing this and she is a newbie to quilting. Go Utes (i went to the UofU).

May Your Days Be Merry

i did it
i finally own a Christmas quilt. i purchased it.
Please do not think me a fraud. i love to piece and have a good bit of experience doing it. Right now in my life i sometimes find it hard to brush my teeth, let alone comb and style my hair.
Sooooo
i saw this for sale at a local quilt store and i snatched it up .
heck, everybody knows, we need joyful things to make the short days in December
Merry and Bright

Moda Christmas

It looks like Leslie chopped up a Moda Panel and sashed it with darling Christmas fabric , then put it back together again in a new and creative way.(love how it's asymmetrical) Such a fun holiday quilt.
i've quilted so many "dang cute" Christmas quilts this season.
(i think it's time i made me one)
