It's one of my earlier quilts. The pattern was designed by my friend. She did a great job, didn't she? Black, white, and red will always be one of my favorite combinations.
This was the first time I tried a swirly free-hand pattern:
I do it much differently now, but I learned a lot from this one.
It was also the first time I attempted a little "back art":
This quilt used to be my nap quilt. It's replacement is very different, but makes me just as happy. I still love this old quilt, but I don't love the old batting that I used. It's bearding -- ick.
Please notice that the laundry lines are empty in this series of photos. I hang laundry every morning, but snapped a quick picture before it included all the clothes we sweated through yesterday. Did I mention that it's been horrifically hot? And that I don't have air conditioning? Please feel bad for me.

Yes, we know it is Monday - tahnkyouverymuch. (I am back in the office after two weeks in training...)
thanks, cc. My post slipped by me this morning. My brain is completely baked from the heat!
The red, white, and black quilt is beautiful. I feel your pain about the ants. I waged my own war earlier this year and was infuriating.
Those quilts are beautiful! My grandparent's neighbor made me a baby quilt years ago that I still help. That craft is quite an impressive one!
Hello Debby,
your quilt is wonderful.
And I don't like ants in the kitchen as well.
