@Mom2Dogs Oh my no - just many lovely one I've found over the years.

@PINKdogWOOD, I do one every winter. This year I have a wedding rings quilt to do. It will be nice quilting. I'll post a photo when I get going. My sister taught me more than 20 years ago. My grandmother was a tailor. Having said that, I don't know that it's in the genes. It's a good hobby to have to get you through the winters! LM

I just purchased Anushka 3 piece quilt set from Evine today. I do enjoy quilts. I love the art work on their handbags and the quilts are beautiful.

@Lilysmom I used to think it was in the genes. My grandmother and my mother were quilters and sewers as am I but I think that gene was lost after it got to me. Neither my daughter or two nieces have any interest in it.

I make 1 or 2 quilts a year as gifts for family members. Lately they have been lap and crib quilts.

I'm about to start on a crib quilt for my daughters BFF, she will be the only non-family member to get one.

@CelticCrafter, seeing your name, I am not surprised you quilt 😊. Don't give up on your daughter/nieces yet. I didn't do anything until I was 40. Like you, I do quilts for family. I have also done crib quilts for friends.

My sister taught me when I had surgery and had a six week recovery period. I couldn't imagine sitting idle for six weeks. She was a great teacher and I consider the craft her gift to me.

I'd love to see your quilt if you feel like posting. This is the last one I did. I have posted this before I think so you may have seen it. LM
