Signature quilts patterns

A lot got done on this quilt yesterday morning – the machine was stitching away. All of the blocks I have are now on the wall – I’m not sure how many more are coming – I have a spot for 3 mor…

November is family story month, and this quilt's got my family talking. It's a signature quilt with the names of my relatives, a special way to celebrate

A very dear friend of mine began her journey with breast cancer a couple months ago. She had a successful surgery and is in the midst of chemo. She is a brave warrior with Jesus by her side as she walks this path. What does a quilter do to comfort, we make quilts, don't we?

Lots of projects going on here again. I have mostly been concentrating on the signature quilt that my future daughter in law would like for the wedding.
