December Post #2

This is one of my Christmas Quilts. I just love it. I like scrappy. I have been under the weather and have not been able to find a place to take a photo of this large quilt. So I placed it on my dining table. That was fun!
I love the pink tones in this photo. 






December Quilting #1

Here is a quilt I finished for my “baby brother”. He retired from Mississippi Stay University after working there over 30 years. This was his retirement gift. Hope he has many years of retirement and never gets bored—which he won't. We are one of those families who know how to keep busy during retirement. We do not know the word bored.

The colors for MSU are maroon and white so I put some maroon squares in the quilt. It is not fancy because I want him to use it and enjoy it.

I did not get many photos of it.



Natalia Bonner Quilting

I had the honor of taking quilting classes with Natalia. I was an awful student and hope she would never remember me. However, she began in July quilting one block a day for one year. I made my own quilt to work with. You will really need almost 7 quilt tops. I honestly am going to begin back working on the rest of the blocks. I could not believe how much better I became but also more confident. I plan to do all the blocks. I am posting the finished quilt and a few of the blocks. It is sooooo much fun!!!
