Bella's Butterlies
I found a lovely spring flower print that was perfect for the back and wish I had found it to use in the front also.....oh, well. Can't wait to deliver it in March.
The Angel quilt is simple, but at least I got one done!
Even though it has an "ice cream" name....since that was the theme for the class......I think it looks "woodsy" and would love to applique some animals in the outer border or add a bird or something! However, I'm not good at applique.....haven't done much. Maybe I can do something like that on the back :-) I don't make decisions very far in advance......when I see the current part finished, I make the next decision.

I really love the brown and green quilt, very nice. Both your little quilts are quite pretty. Don't have to be fancy or complex to be cozy and pretty. Me
I'm really pleased with the brown and green one, too. Glad I chose those colors. Of course I never make a quilt for myself that doesn't have green in it :-)
These are so pretty! My mom used to make quilts and I still have them after all these years, some a little tattered, but I love them. You must have that wonderful trait called "patience." Something I lack when it comes to projects like this.
If you can use a sewing machine, today's quilter has lots of easy tools and tricks (rotary cutters, strip piecing, etc) to help the process and much quilting is done on the sewing machine and not by hand. I have very little patience, but quilting is the best outlet I've found for my desire to "create art". I don't paint or draw very well. I have a lot of my quilts machine quilted by other people. Hand quilting is too tedious for me.
