I've had these two quilts finished now for quite some time but somehow seem to have trouble getting good photos of my quilts. It's the lighting. Sometimes I get lucky if I take them outside. Or sometimes it's just a mild improvement. So frustrating! I need to spend the time to learn to use my camera more effectively.
Anyway, this first quilt is made with fabric from the Australian Prints Charming line. I think it's going on three years now since I started it? Oh my... that shows how slowly I move along. But, I eventually get there. Why does this quilt somehow make me think of Mickey Mouse?
The second quilt shown is a more recent endeavor. I finally discovered the Mingle and Metro Market line by Monaluna and absolutely fell in love. It was an obsession there for a little while. This rail fence quilt was inspired by the Old Barn Quilt Along. I needed a design large enough to show off the fabrics... My husband says this quilt reminds him of South Park. ???? Ok, I sort of get it.

What awesome quilts, love both of them. Where do you get your fabrics from? I am off to look up ladder stitch........
I ALWAYS have trouble getting good photos! They just never come out like they do in my mind's eye. Anyway -- your quilts are fabulous! The first one is just so unique! I love the Prints Charming panels (am I right about that?) and I like the colors in the second one. Different looks -- but both wonderful quilts!
