Argyle Quilt

I made this quilt for my husband. I wanted something masculine and after searching through many patterns, I made this one up myself. I looked at men's socks for inspiration. :-) It is very large and heavy so it ended up as a couch quilt in the camper. It is made with Kona cotton fabric and quilted tightly in a stipple pattern.

Orange Peel Quilt

I made this quilt to fit the king sized bed in our 5th wheel camper. I added a scalloped border around the bottom half and omitted where the bed fits in the slide. Anyone that has tried to shove a comforter down the sides of a bed in a slide out will appreciate this. It has 244 5" squares and took 12 hours to FMQ. I quilted around the orange peels which makes an interesting pattern on the back. Two tutorials from MSQC assisted me in making this quilt. The orange peel and the scalloped edge tutorials. The scallop tool works great. I love this quilt.
