The Egg Money Quilt

Whew...

after three years, I finished my first "quilt of the month" quilt.

I took this 8 month class down at the local Cotton Shop

here in Provo, Ut.

I had only made a Christmas wall sized

quilt before taking on this project.

(this was before I started working full time)

Quilting is not for the impatient person.

Quite frankly, I never thought I would have

patience to do this art form.

First, you have to love fabric

Second, you have to love sewing

Third, you have to be a good mathematician

Fourth, you have to have good design

~

I have learned and matured into all four.

Below is an "EGG MONEY" Quilt-

Here are a few of my favorite blocks.

The quilting was done on a machine by my cousin

Joanna, she quilts for a living.

Here is her blog.

I was very interested in quilting in my twenties but,

I had to wait until my daughters were

raised before I could start this hobby.

On to the next one and the next one...
