Quilting

[crazy4orcas]

shenshen77 and I have been chatting about quilting recently and she mentioned wanting to see my quilts.  So, I thought I would post some pics of some.  I have a bunch of quilts in various stages of being, and I've only finished a couple of table runners and a couple of wall hangings.  I am about halfway done with the piecing part of one I'm going to use as a bedspread (twin sized) and that's my largest project so far.



Here's a wall hanging that the directions called a Memory Quilt. The buttons in the corners are from my dad's Navy uniform and you can see a pair of his Lieutenant's bars too.



This is another wall hanging, a rag quilt of the American Flag:



Wall hanging or lap quilt I've called "A-BUZZ About Autumn":



Wall hanging or lap quilt that still needs the binding sewn on (it will be black). I'm still trying to come up a clever name for this one, any ideas?:

Amazing. The first one particularly sings to me...

Those are gorgeous! I love the memory quilt, what a lovely idea! I have everything to make at least a twin bedspread, I just have to find the energy to put it together ;) But yours are lovely. A name for the cat one... has to be something with purr ;)
