Warning: This post has nearly 30 photos! I've re-sized them to a smaller size, but if you have a slow computer connection, you may want to go make a cup of tea (OK, a gin and tonic) while the post loads!
Because there are so many photos, I will keep the commentary to a minimum. If you have a question about a specific quilt, either ask in the comments or send me an email and I'll try to find out the detes for you.

ReplyDeleteAwesome quilts!! I am curious as to how the one in PMQG10 was made. The squares look like they were appliqued on but I wonder if it was pieced and if there is a pattern for it. I would love to make it myself using scraps.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing... :)
