When Not Making Deals, I'm Making Quilts!

For my Quilting Friends, here are a couple of projects I've recently completed. The Triple Irish Chain (left), is a baby quilt, made for the son (born yesterday) of another member of The Debbie Reed Team. Although you can't see them, in each white diamond, a light green sailboat is hand quilted. The Seminole Christmas quilt is a project I started in a class a few years ago, and completed for myself. As a quilter, you know that making a project for onesself doesn't happen very often!

Happy New Year to all REALTORS/crafters/artists out there, and Happy Creating!

One of these days I will learn how to make quilts. The ones from my grandma are wearing out!

Nice work Dianne! Such a "warm" gift, both literally and figuratively.
All best,

I used to quilt when my kids were younger. The last one I made was over ten years ago. It was a hobby that was handed down in my family. These quilts are lovely. It looks as if lots of love went into making those quilts.

Wow, Dianne -- You actually made one for yourself? Now you can enjoy the quilt rather than always giving it up for others to enjoy. Great hobby!

Thank-you all for your nice comments. One thing I like about quilting is that when a project is done, it's done. I can look at the piece and say, "That was fun! Now what's next?" Finishing a quilt is like the feeling of satisfaction one gets when shaking hands all around the table after a successful settlement. That was fun! Now who's next?

Good for you, making a quilt to keep. And I really love the baby quilt.

Thanks, Joetta! I used my Christmas quilt just last night! (Yes, it's still out, but my tree's still up, too...gotta take care of that this weekend!) There's nothing like snuggling under a warm quilt on a cold, winter's night.

Just catching up on a few blogs, love your quilts, the chain looks great! And now that it's the middle of February hope you made some progress on the Christmas tree! I just took down some of my Christmas themed wall hangings, I like them so much, I leave them up as long as possible.
