Jenn's Quilt
This is the quilt I made for Jenn's 13th birthday last month. She loves cats, so the patterned fabric was all different cats. The other fabric was a batik I bought at the Flying Needle in Stephenville, Texas. They have the nicest, richest batik I have ever found.
I thought with this, I could sort of stop quilting for a while. I was making quilts for each of the granddaughters' 13th birthdays. Also, I have made one for each of our daughters.
But NO now three of the four grandsons have asked...and they want minky backing, too! So...I will start collecting fabric for them. Quilting is an enjoyable art! Quilting with minky is NOT.

You are giving your grandchildren something they will forever treasure.
I thought I was being foolish, not understanding the word minky. Looked up in my glossary and found the word mink. Imagined that they wanted quilts with a furry backside.
That would have been rather expensive, or what?

Haven't done any quilting for years. Used to do smaller things, too: table runners, wall hangings etc.
Thanks for your comment. I have had a lot of busy days lately, but am enjoying my gazebo with the table and chairs in it. Take care, my friend. Love, Merle.
Good luck with these projects...
