SO much to say!

Well...it's been just over a month since I last posted.
I have been busy working on a quilt for Kyle. It is a surprise for him to open on Christmas morning!! I've done tons of custom quilting on this thing and i just LOVE it!

Here I quilted in the plateaus as well as around the horses and in the horses mane and tails and the brown grass.


You can't really see the quilting in the snake on this one, but I did all around the snake and around his eye and down his tongue. I also quilted in the mountains and the ground as well as the green plant.

I quilted all in the plateaus and around each mountain lion. I did all the plants too.


This one has quilting up and down all of the cacti, throughout the ground covering and each prairie dog is outlined.



I did lots in this one....around the turtle and around each bump on the turtle's shell. I quilted in the mountains and in the ground too.

My favorite block on this quilt.

 I will post a full size pic of the quilt once I finish binding it. I have named this quilt "a memory of Nevada".

Here are the crayon quilt mats Kyle made for Christmas gifts to family this year. He calls this one the "Caramel Warrior"

Here are two more he made.

Finished product! He also made those ornaments for gifts :)

My thought for Valentine's Day.

Round Robin. I added the last border.

MY round robin. This was accidentally sent to me a round too early! But I LOVE it, so I am not wanting to send it on to the person who is supposed to add the 5th border ;)
