Quilts are home!
The little lady that I take some of my quilt tops to called me yesterday. She had finished the quilts that I pieced recently. Here you go. I am so proud of both of them.
I always enjoy visiting with this special little lady. Yesterday, she showed Marilyn and I a closet where she has over 70 quilt tops ready to be quilted. She has made hundreds of quilts. Some have been sold, some raffled for community projects, and some given to family members. The house is full of them. She is an amazing quilter by the way. I really need to get her an Etsy shop!
It sounds like you have a real jewel in the quilting lady. She sounds like a very special person. Great quilts!

ooooohh I love them Diana! They are look wonderful!!! You have inspired me to get my quilt finished :)!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!! I wish I could sew and quilt! Maybe one of these days I'll break in my sewing machine that I got for Christmas, LAST YEAR! Sigh!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
Those are gorgeous quilts! And yes, it would be a great idea to get your little lady an Etsy shop. What an amazing skill!
ReplyDeleteOh my, those quilts are just beautiful! One day, I would like to learn how to quilt! For now, I am trying to knit and have it look like knitting stitches!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day,
Nancy
beautiful...is she reasonable? I have a quilt top my Nana made that needs to be quilted..
ReplyDeleteThose are so pretty. I am a quilter too. I actually am one of those ladies who do the quilting. I don't have 70 quilts in a closet though. Maybe when I am here age I will.
ReplyDeleteThey're really pretty, Di. I guess some of your crafting will slow down now that school has begun.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!Thanks for coming over to visit every now and then! Blessings on your day!
ReplyDeleteOh how awesome! Beautiful! Treasures!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so gifted . I find quilting so comforting. Your quilts are lovely.

Diana-Those are gorgeous quilts. I agree that you should get that lady an Etsy site. She would probably be thrilled-or maybe not...they are probably like old friends to her. Diana
ReplyDeleteYou have every right to be proud of them. Yes she definetly needs an Etsy shop.
ReplyDeleteDiana, those are beautiful!! You did wonderful work and your little lady is a gem! I know you are proud of them!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts Diana, and how great to have a lady that will quilt them. It is such a lost art. I know you had fun looking at her quilts,Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Sue
You are going to make someone very happy or maybe even two.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these...such talent!
ReplyDeleteThe name quilt is beautiful! Reminds me of a table cloth my mom has from many years ago of friends' names embroidered on it. What a great idea to use again! Love those little old lady quilters. Quilting skill is going out with that generation if we don't teach it to our daughters.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh...these are amazing!!! I so envy y'all who can piece quilts together and have them come out looking perfect. I've always wanted to do one myself but don't have the heart or the bravery to try.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work!!!
We had a Gospel homecoming at our church this past Sunday night. Wonderful music. And beautiful, beautiful quilts absolutely everywhere!! They used them for decoration.
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are beautiful and I know you will enjoy using them rather than just displaying them.
