I wanted to learn to quilt. So I did. Never one to go halfway, six weeks later I had completed two lap quilts for two daughters. Two weeks after that, a baby quilt was due; needing to be finished five days after arriving home from a two week holiday in the UK, Ireland, and Northern Ireland. It too, was finished by the deadline; although admittedly I hand bound the baby creation in the most unusual places. An hour and a half wait at the Apple store created it's own "unreality" as I hand stitched, knotted, clipped my homespun amid the latest electronics and accessories and crowds of IPhone and Apple connoisseurs!
I could not share photos of the daughter's quilts without spoiling the surprise. So I waited until now to display the aforementioned lap quilts...

Actually, the one on the left should be familiar. I had posted pics of this one before deciding to do two for the girls for Christmas. |

Complete with labels |
Unfortunately, I forgot to shoot photos of the completed baby quilt. So here is the finished top. Perhaps I'll be able to post pics later.
