Cute butterflies for this lovely quilt! I love the sweet colors on this one, and the quilting is charming and matching the sweetness. Beautiful wool quilts too, you choose the perfect quilting pattern for those, and it shows beautifully on the minky backing.
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to make quilts for the siblings, my 2 sisters have theirs too 😋
Fascinating quilts. Love those triangles. Lucky family member.
ReplyDeleteBut I am fascinated with the use of wool. First of all, what a great idea. And how lovely to make them for siblings.
Wow these are gorgeous - I thought the first one was going to be my favorite, then I saw the last one - oh my gosh! I SO wish I had been a quilter from the start - I would have made both my brothers quilts, as well as my Mom and Daddy. Maybe in my next life. ;)
ReplyDeleteThose wool quilts are simple but oh so lovely. I have made quilts for two of my brothers.
ReplyDeleteThose wool and minky quilts must weigh a ton! Great way to use those special fabrics and you did a wonderful job with the quilting as usual.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific way to use special fabrics! The thickness of the wool quilts must have also been an issue with tension. Both are beautiful finishes and the butterfly garden quilting for the middle quilt was the perfect choice! What special gifts!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful quilts! I love the wool ones - those will be really special to the families. Your quilting is wonderful on all three, Nancy! And, yes, I have made quilts for my siblings - it's fun to surprise them with an unexpected quilt!
ReplyDeleteGlad you could make the wool quilts work even though it took some special care. And how warm and cuddley they must be! xo
ReplyDeleteThose wool quilts were lucky to have you quilt them and what treasures they will be. Love the quilt with the butterflies, too, and the Kaffe backing. I have made quilts for my siblings; probably time to make each a new one!
ReplyDeleteEach quilt is so nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful quilts, all of them in their own way.
ReplyDeleteYikes, I'm not sure I could cut into authentic quilts. I have my grandmother's but haven't worn it for ages. I shortened it while in college. Can you say mini kilt? But it is a lovely idea to make the quilts for her siblings. I bet they are really heavy! Beautiful work on all the quilts.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work on your quilts. I have never worked with wool on a large quilt so I am in awe.
ReplyDeleteWow I love the fabrics in that first one soo much! (Fall colors are my thing). I can only imagine how wonderfully warm that it! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose wool quilts are so lovely! What a great way to use the kilts her mother collected. Great idea to make quilts for siblings! Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

Woolens- I'm so impressed with her making them, and you skillfully quilting them. The use of her family fabrics makes them so special. Regina's quilt is lovely, too, and oh boy that backing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts! I can just picture what you had to do to quilt the wool quilts - on minky backing, no less! That's some awesome quilt-wrangling! Wonderful quilting on all three - they'll be special treasures for sure.
