I love to quilt when I have time. This was on my list this summer to complete a project. I have had this US panel for 8 years in the bottom drawer of Kirk's dresser. I just never had the nerve to do anything with it thinking that I would mess it up and it wouldn't turn out. I finally came up with an idea to do these Crazy Roman Pillars. I asked the boys if they were interested in helping. They made quite a few squares. Kaleb was really getting into it. It only took about a week to assemble the face and then maybe another weeks work to quilt it. It is amazeing how much you can do in 15 min. increments. I like how the water quilting turned out. Plus it was fun to do. I guess I will have to wait until next summer to do another one. Those are Daphne's toesies at the bottom.

Okay, that is totally cool! When can you make me one. :)
Very nice, Pam! I want to do a quilt for Seth and Jessica. For some reason I am not confident to do a quilt. It is too overwhelming picking all of those colors and have them come together to make one beautiful pattern that is pleasing to the eye.
The guilt is beautiful. You did such a wonderful job. You go girl...
