I've been busy, here are some of my quilts

[wdw4us]

that have kept me away from my DIS friends.

First is a shoe quilt I made for my niece Jennifer. When I was in TX last October, she let my husband Mark and I invade her room. I doubt my daughter would be that generous. I found the pattern and that fur fabric at the Houston Quilt show perfect for her as she has a LOT of shoes. I'm sending it to her on Monday. Hope she likes it!

The next is a Christmas Sampler that I made and it is only 20x20 inches. I like small quilts so I can make more plus I have a tiny house.

Hope you like them.

Wow... as a crafter I can appreciate how much time & work went into those. (I'm a scrapbooker.)

BEAUTIFUL!!

I guess being snowed in all winter kinda helped with getting so much done.

Wow Denise! They are absolutely beautiful! You are really talented and imaginative! They're spectacular! You're a great aunt too! You put me to shame! LOL!

Really beautiful work Denise.

Michelle! I knew you'd want one.

WOW!!!! I am so in awe/envious of talents like these. I do not have a single crafty/imaginative bone in my body. I just don't. I would LOVE to be able to make a quilt, but am just afraid to even know where to start.

The shoe quilt is gorgeous, and I LOVE the Christmas one. Really really nice.

 

[Ithastobe]

Very nice!!

 

[oldkicker]

[Rajah]

Neat!! I wish I had the time to work on, let alone finish, one of my small quilt projects!

 

[Regina]

Wow! I love them, and your choice of fabrics for the shoe quilt are exceptional.

You'd better not let Snoopy see that one. She's the resident DIS "
Shoe Queen."

You do beautiful work. I love your quilts, especially the shoe quilt as my MIL collects shoes.

Denise,
Wow! I'm really glad I didn't miss this post!
They are beautiful!!! I Love both of them!! What a really sweet aunt you are!!
I would really love a Christmas quilt! I'll have to get on that!

I've started 2 new log cabin quilts. A new one for our bed, and a baby quilt for a new niece or nephew. They're addicting aren't they??
