In EVERY case, it was all about the fabrics/colors and not about intricate or complex piecing ~ the gift recipients each LOVE their quilts. I understand why some don't care for the pattern, and it is not my "standard" by any means, but it works well when you need a means to accomplish an end! And, of course, top notch quilting finishes off the quilt in a way nothing else can...Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20278983.post-75189648598823821912007-12-18T10:38:00.000-06:002007-12-18T10:38:00.000-06:00I must agree with everyone else; your ugly quilts ...I must agree with everyone else; your ugly quilts are not ugly at all. I too am not a fan of YBR type quilts but that is only because making a quilt like that would bore me to death. Your IC quilt is beautiful. I wish I had the ability to quilt like that on my standard sewing machine. Merry Christmas.<BR/><BR/>LBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20278983.post-39531868029279207462007-12-18T07:11:00.000-06:002007-12-18T07:11:00.000-06:00Oooo!
