Busy Quilting

I got two quilt tops done during the past few days but my knee still bothers me when I kneel down so I recruited Mikie P. to pin my quilt tops. He did a great job and I told him he'll have to come help every time now.


The finished products - yes, I sewed all weekend to get them quilted and bound. This quilt is for Becky's friend who is battling cancer. It turned out to be one of my all time favorites. I loved the red, black, and cream colors.


This is a memory quilt for a friend of mine whose son died recently. She has also lost another son. She is a great example of someone who lives by the Spirit and she has a quiet dignity about her. I wanted to do a cheerful and fun quilt for her so I combined a few different patterns and came up with this. It has her son's initials in the circles. Do you like?
