And I won't be making anything like that either, but it does make me want to work an applique project in before too much longer. <br />I like the same kinds of quilts you do, I think. And looking at your work makes me smile...<br />gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09208168224439515489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-35459735363517960502015-07-09T23:14:48.681-07:002015-07-09T23:14:48.681-07:00I love the quilts you linked to!

I bet though that when you looked over your own quilts you could see developments and changes in your style. We grow a bit with everything we make and evolve as we go - no need to make huge leaps in style unless we really want to.Kajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417544341324291385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-16640015931722731142015-07-07T09:40:36.568-07:002015-07-07T09:40:36.568-07:00Oh my your post hit home!

Like you, my quilts aren't especially show-worthy ... they're traditional and simple (both in piecing and in quilting), but they're used and loved and I like them.

That is a lot of tops you have to quilt isn't it. Sometimes it is hard to figure out what is next. I thought I wanted to make the La Passcaglia quilt and I made a little bit of it and now it doesn't interest me at all and I think that book is getting put away and the project tossed and maybe it will be redone another time but I'm not going to look at it right now.Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-19203344459774671082015-07-06T03:57:26.608-07:002015-07-06T03:57:26.608-07:00Looking forward to seeing what your new project wi...Looking forward to seeing what your new project will be.
