🏆Best of 2021🏆

Welcome to my Best Five blog posts of 2021!!! I'm Nancy, the quilter quilting these quilts. I've been quilting for 41 years. I bought my APQS longarm 9 years ago in order to get my own quilts quilted. I added a computer to my longarm in 2020. I quilt for family and friends, too. We lived in Japan for 24 years so a lot of my quilts feature Japanese fabrics. I love the modern fabrics and colors as well!  

Cheryl @ Meadow Mist Designs hosts a link party for quilt bloggers every year end. The guidelines for one's best 5 are open to interpretation. Here are my Best Five!!
