| Miss Betty & I have been busy...QUILTING! 10+ and counting!! |
So, without further ado - here's a min-quilt show for you ;-)
 |
| Doris's Patriotic Quilt #1 - a TEAM effort! |
Here's a close-up of some of our patriotic quilting:
 |
| Becker's Star panto w/Rainbows Patriotic machine quilting thread |
Patriotic Quilt #2 - originated w/'our Doris':
 |
| Isn't this a colorful quilt? |
Check out some of these wonderful patriotic fabrics Doris chose for this neat quilt:

Alrighty then - Doris's Patriotic quilt #5 is on the frame waiting. Had a few family challenges to address this past week, or we'd probably be farther along quilting ALL of our Doris's March Quilts. Now that things have settled down a bit - can get back to one of our favorite things to do...Quilting!
UPDATE 4/15/2017 - Patriotic Quilt #5 of Doris's gets ALL quilted:

One of my fellow quilting friends, Alycia, claims that her fabrics 'talk to her'. I swear, not only does Miss Betty 'tap her foot' but, I think I hear her YELLING my name! Time to get busy gettin', as Niecy likes to say...;-)
Later,
