Welcome

This blog is devoted to all things quilted and handmade. I have a new found love affair with quilts. I LOVE the colors, fabrics, designs and love that is sewn into quilts. Along with this new addiction comes a world of wonderfully kind and creative women (with a couple men thrown in for variety...LOL!). Please enjoy your stay here. I hope it will fuel your own creativity...

Fall Blogger's Quilt Festival

Here is my entry for Amy's Blogger's Fall Quilt Festival .  Please click on the link or use the button in my side bar to go and see all the wonderful quilts.

This is the first quilt I have made where I created the pattern.  What a learning experience that was!  It is a baby quilt for a special friend...their first 'child' is a wonderful black and white Great Dane.  So, of course, he had to be included in the quilt.  It has taught me all the work that goes into creating a quilt pattern and made me so thankful we have so many very creative quilters out there who share their talents with us in the beautiful patterns they have created for us.  Thanks to Amy for making this show possible, the vendors who support her and thanks to you for stopping by my blog....enjoy the show!!

Hello! I love your doggie quilt! You have made wonderful design and perfect work! What a great gift for a puppy! I start to think if I could make one for my 'Nero'...
Best wishes from Crete! Teje and Nero
