I'm finished!!

Hallelujah!  I finished my project of making all the kids and grandkids a quilt!!  It took 2 years instead of one, but I had a lot of fun and made a few other things along the way.  I believe I'm a bona fide quilter now!!

Here is the next-to-the-last quilt that I finished in November.  It belongs to my daughter, Amy.  I started this one at a quilt weekend in Curtis, Ne in May of 2009. I free motion quilted it  - something I am learning - practice makes perfect (I need a few more quilts to practice on before I get into perfection mode!)






 And now for the grand finale!! I finished this one yesterday and I think this one is the most beautiful of all (no offense to any of the other gorgeous quilts I made the last 2 years!).  It's just that when I put this one together, I was surprised as how nice it all worked together - maybe that's because I just wasn't sure how it would look - I was afraid it might be too busy. As it turns out, it's perfect!  See  for yourself (wish you could see it in person!).




If you haven't already, check out the slide show to see the other quilts that I've made and have a Merry Christmas and a very blessed New Year!
