We are covered with quilts. I would like to share some with you. My modem for my computer is not reliable so the iPad is what I am using (giving new meaning to hunt and peck).
I gave my son and his fiancé this churn dash which I made years ago. I forgot to photograph it so he obliged. Thank you Jeff.
I made the wall hanging for Jack after he admired it at a local quilt shop. It hangs over the bed at his house. On the bed is the quilt I made which we refer to as the "wedding" quilt.
Folded at the bottom is a rail fence made years ago but recently quilted.
Also a few years ago I made a mystery quilt. In fact I made two of the same one! I traded cutting and piecing for finishing a sweater. I have hung this one on the wall in the cabin.
I was able to finish this blog with an internet connection elsewhere. Thank goodness. I am done with the quilts for now. I hope to be adding them to my quilt gallery tab soon.
Hope everyone has a wonderful week. I am going to knit and look at the lake!

The quilts are beautiful, really love the one you made for Jack! Enjoy the week:@)
You are a very talented quilter. I enjoyed seeing all of these creations. And it's wonderful to have some other craft to do while watching the lake. Quilting is time-consuming and one must pay attention. I think that's why I've not made anything larger than a doll quilt.
Your quilts are so beautiful! You are very talented. Your family must get great pleasure of having one of your creations in their home.
Your quilts are stunning! I bet they make the cabin very cozy. Enjoy your day!
What lovely works of art, thanks so much for sharing.
Beautiful quilts! What a talent you have. Knitting at the lake sounds like a really lovely way to spend some time. Enjoy your week.
Your quilts are gorgeous, Carol. Truly works of art. The churn dash quilt is so pretty hanging over the rail with greenery in the background. Happy knitting.
I loved seeing all your wonderful quilts, Carol. Each one is so special in its own way. You've really accomplished a lot over the years.
Here's hoping you have lots more in you, too!
No way are you taking too many photos! LOL Although there was a big blog discussion about people photographing food in restaurants recently.
Read about it here:

There is nothing like a hand-made quilt. If you find them in the stores, they are usually made in another country. The "wedding quilt" is just beautiful. I have several keepsake quilts from a grandmother, one called the "Wedding Ring"; I think that is an old pattern. You do amazing work. Debi
