Well this has been a big year of quilting for me. I first learned to quilt in order to make something special for my son. I finished his first quilt when he was 4 months old. He is almost 3 now and was blessed with a little sister who is a year and a half. When I learned I was having a girl quilting went into high gear.

Well I finally discovered how to post pictures to this blog and to call it easy would be an outright lie. But I managed to get some shots on quilts I finished this year (many more than what I'm showing tonight but I'll be happy if this loads).

More pics soon lol I made a ton of quirks this year. I am so grateful to have found quilting. I loved it so much!
