STAR BOM FABRIC


I am starting a new quilt from a website called http://www.patchworktimes.com/ Judy Laquidara Star BOM quilt. It is so pretty! I can hardly wait till August 1 when we get our first directions. I have my fabric picked out.

Here are my quilts



String-X (1st quilt I made) Bargello 2nd quilt Orange Crush


Well, here are the quilts that I have started on. I am kind of shy about posting pictures of my quilts because I am a new quilter and mine can not even compare to some of the beautiful quilts that I have seen online but here goes. I hope in time my quilts will be as good as everyone else.
I found Bonnie's web site (www.Quiltville.com) and I fell in love with her quilts. Everything I know about quilting I learned from her web site. I have bought a few quilting books but I mainly go by Bonnie's tips and info. Bonnies makes everything so easy and she give the best directions. SHOUT OUT to Bonnie!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!

Yahoo!!! Rain


I live in a little town northwest of Houston, Texas and we haven't had rain for about a month! My grass is drying up (looks like burn spots in my front and back yard. My plants are dying!!! Last night about 3 am, it rained! Yahoo! It has been raining off and on today. I have taken some pictures of my quilts and I will post pictures later. Since I am a new quilter I don't have that many pictures but I am learning so I plan on making more in the future.
