I finished twelve quilts in 2015 bringing my grand total to 162 (since I began quilting in 2007!)

Here are photos of my finished quilts!

 

Quilts Completed in 2015

#1     Lazy Sunday is a quilt pattern designed by Bonnie K. Hunter and was featured in “Quiltmaker” magazine.  Val, at A Needle Runs Through It did the quilting.  I think I did more “UNSEWING” on this quilt than any other in my quilting career so far.  For some reason I kept reading the instructions wrong!  This quilt was gifted to my nephew Eric Albertson and his bride, Susan Albertson, as a wedding present.

#8     New Year’s Eve 2011 Mystery Quilt…..this was designed by Ann Smith and quilted by  A Needle Runs Through it.  The back is made from a Bonnie K. Hunter pattern – Boxy Stars.  I hate to say this, but I really don’t like this quilt…..I think that I didn’t pick a good background for the pattern.  Since I categorized this as an UGLY QUILT I decided that I couldn’t give it away….so I kept it and keep it on my Grandma Albertson’s Rocking Chair to keep the chair clean (what was I thinking to have it recovered in cream colored fabric when there are cats in the house!  :))
