This the back of the quilt for Dallas, my great nephew. I have had this panel or book print for years but thought it would make a great back for the dinasaur on the front.

Dallas
Colorful leaves
This is from a kit by Frieda Anderson. I love the bright colors from her hand dyed fabrics. Not sure if it needs more quilting, maybe in the backgrounds. I will get a professional opinion on thursday!

Love that kaffe
Just finished putting this together. It was not easy. Getting all his fabrics was a chore. I found half way through, a site where you could get all his fabrics in a kit for the quilts in his book "Italy." What fun is that. This is tussie mussie.
I have gotten fabrics to do his "lacy log cabin" next.
Have a great weekend.
Warm quilting.

Easter quilt?
Too much yellow for me in BH mystery. This is my second with purple and green and it is just too harsh.
Maybe next year's will be blues?
Freezing quilting.

Disappearing?
This is the disappearing hour glass from three dudes quilting. Love the kaffe fabrics but I need more greens and blues. Hate when that happens.
Mishap with my favorite quilt last week:-(.
Took it and one other to laundromat and it came out of the washer looking as if it had had a fight with the easter bunny and lost. It also had more wrinkles than I do. I am confused because the other wool batting quilt that I washed in the machine next to it came out fine. Quilt karma?
Sad quilting.

More kaffe.
I got tired of BH tiny pieces so for a change started "tussie mussie" from his quilts in Italy book. This also will have to wait for more blues and greens. I cut some red/pink half squares but they are disruptive to the calm tone I wanted to follow. Could have to do with the aforementioned quilt! I might make a version of this using reds etc and call it "hottsie tottsie"!!
