Paula: Yes, the kitties love it – especially Gizmo who blends right in!

Swapna: Thank you!

Kathy: Thanks! I am beginning to love the zigzag too (although I STILL love that back the best!)

Molly: My favorite part of the quilting is selecting the fabrics and designing…then watching the whole thing come together. I also was into scrapbooking for awhile! The flickr groups are WAY fun. If you search groups by just putting in the word “quilts” you will find dozens and dozens of amazing quilts.

Zibilee: Thanks so much for your enthusiasm

Cass: Thanks…hope you’ll take a quilt class. It is so much fun!

Les: I hadn’t thought of tropical…but you’re right now that I look at it again!
LOL, re: Etsy. I actually DID create a space there, but I have to admit I am not ready to sell quilts yet. You can’t see all my mistakes in the photos, but I need to get more skilled, I think, before I sell anything!

Serena: Wild isn’t it?? LOL! I have to admit, it was the wildness that drew me to the fabrics!

Kim: Thanks! It is so fun to see what different colors do and the impact they have on an overall piece.

That’s beautiful! I love the zig zagging. And you’re right, the dark brown really does make the colors pop.

Wow…some of those patterns are crazy, but some of them are great.

Gorgeous, Wendy!! It has a bit of a tropical look to it, don’t you think? Maybe something Polynesian.

Have you ever thought about opening an Etsy shop for your quilts? I’d bet you could sell them as fast as you make them! Have I already asked you this??

This quilt is so beautiful it makes me want to learn how to make them! Or at least learn how to sew. Thanks for sharing!

Oh wow! That is just beautiful! I would love it so much if I were creative enough to make something like this. You did an excellent job with it!

I am just in awe of you quilting ailibity! This is absolutely beautiful!

While I have no interest in sewing, I LOVE the concept of quilting: piecing different colors and patterns together to make a cohesive whole. I think that is why I like scrapbooking – I can pretend to do that with paper

I LOVE the flickr group and plan to visit spend some time viewing all the other lovely creations.

Both sides of your quilt are beautiful, but I’m partial to the zigzag side.

I LOVE this quilt! I bet it looks spectacular draped over the back of your milk chocolate leather sofa! But more importantly, do the kitties love it too???
