It's That Darn Butternut Squash
Name of Maker: quilter2964
It's That Darn Butternut Squash - This quilt got it's name because I could NOT for the life of me remember the name of the inspiration fabric UNTIL the quilt top was done--it was like a curse or something!! (Now I can easily recall that my inspiration fabric was Sweet Potato Pie--but all I could ever get to come into my head while I was making this top was "butternut squash"--weird!!)
The Queen's B&B
Name of Maker: quilter2964
The Queen's B&B - A gift to my in-laws to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. My MIL and I have the exact same name (I know, weird!) so to distinguish whom you are calling for when we're both around, she's the Queen and I'm the princess. She has a dream of owning a B&B some day--for now, her guest room will have to do--hence the name of this quilt "The Queen's B&B."

Gold Star Quilt
Name of Maker: Linda Whitney
Gold Star Quilt - I made this quilt for the Operation Homefront Quilts project. Operation Homefront Quilts was started by Jessica Porter in Florida. Her goal is to make quilts for all the families of the soldiers who have been killed in the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. I don't know who will get my quilt but I felt honored to participate in this worthwhile project.
Red Horse Roundup
Name of Maker: Linda Whitney
Red Horse Roundup - I was learning to do machine applique and liked the bold, graphic design of this red and black southwestern quilt on the cover of The Quilter Magazine. I cut down the quilt to four blocks and used the red horses in the border to practice my machine applique. The triangle blocks turned out to be the most difficult part of the quilt, getting all those points to come together. It was a lot of fun working on this quilt. I've already made two of these wall hangings and plan to make more.

Maggi
Name of Maker: Linda Whitney
Maggi - I love this little quilt because it's our wonderful German shepherd, Maggi. I took a Imagery on Fabric class and printed out Maggi's poster in class. It's not a very difficult quilt, but I have to say it's my favorite because it's Maggi.
