Hi! You are so talented! Just absolutely beautiful quilts. Have you been to the Quilt Museum in Paducah, KY? We are a winter wonderland of snow and cold this year in CO. Glad you had a good Christmas. Kathy

JPC, Your quilts are sooooo pretty! I could look at and drool over patchwork quilts all day, and am so glad you were able to upload them to PB.

Just FYI, I think I've finally figured out that by using the PB edit feature called Resize, if I change the width to around 450-500, the pics will fit nicely inside the thread every time.

Oh, all those different scenes in the Pokey quilt are just adorable and so well placed. Background fabrics are so well chosen, too! Great job!

Hi JPC, I am very impressed with both of your quilts. What a gift of love for Mr Crazy, he must be so pleased. Glad you figured out how to post the pics, really enjoyed seeing them. I'm busy trying to decide which New Year's resolutions to ditch on this first day of the year. {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

JPC: Hope you have a very Happy New Year and lots of good health and happiness.

Happy New Year MTH,

Thank you so much for your kind remarks on the quilts. I have others I like better than Mr Crazy's but he was really disappointed when he saw the one I made for the auction at the quilt show then found out it wasn't ours so had to make him one like it.

As for the pokey little puppy, sure could make one for you but wouldn't have the puppy on the border. I looked long and hard for that fabric and finally bought the last 2 yards of it on the internet. So would have to change that up.

Hope you behaved yourself last night and didn't wear any lampshades LOL.

Have a good day

JPC

Hi Jazzgrl...thank you for your kind remarks. Don't know if it takes talent, just need to remember to read the directions. I am not too good at that LOL. I really liked Pokey too. Sent an old Pokey Little Puppy book along with the quilt and it had many of the same pictures in it that the quilt has.

Wishes you a great New Year

Hi KatInCo...So glad I could finally share a few of my quilts with you all. I have been to Paducah before but didn't get to the quilt museum. There was so much going on around town with the big quilt show etc didn't have time for the museum. It was so cold and rainy the year we were there, kinda miserable. Hoping to go back again sometime.

I heard about your cold weather in Co. My friend talked to her cousin who lives in Fort Collins and she said it was 15 below and I was whining cause it was 10 below here. We don't have the snow though but had just been 50 a few days before. Hope it is finally warming up for you so you can go out and enjoy your snow.

Stay warm KatInCo

Happy New Year SHOPR...Thanks for the compliment SHOPR. I am with you at looking at quilts, love looking the all my quilting books and magazines. I was relieved that I got them downloaded too and on my 1st try. Going to have to add to them real soon to see if I am still lucky.

Thanks for the info on resizing. I did do that on the black and white one but then for some reason got knocked off the site so didn't get a chance to do the baby quilt. Went back in but didn't see where I could downsize once I had left the site but think I hurried to get them here before I got knocked off again.

I tried to follow along with the book in placing the pictures of the Pokey Puppy so you could follow along with the quilt and book at the same time. A few of the pictures are a little different with the book. It was fun to make.

Have a good day SHOPR

Thanks lucy, Mr Crazy is so happy with the quilt. Had to put it right on the bed. If all it takes is posting a picture of a quilt to impress you, I will have to put more on her {#emotions_dlg.lol} Very nice of your to say.

Gosh, I forgot to even make any New Years resolutions this year, guess I knew I wouldn't keep them. {#emotions_dlg.laugh} Don't work too hard at trying to figure out which one to ditch, it will happen all by itself lucy.

Have a good one

JPC
