I still LOVE how fun your two Linus quilts are. Boom! Color!

As you know, a cheat sheet really helped me. I'm going to try that for my next quilt, too.

Yay for Spring Break and having kids home. WOO!

I was told at Linus how brave I was to use orange thread on the front and back of both of those quilts. I was like, brave schmave, thread should be seen and not hidden!

[ofenjen]

YES! Exactly that!

[suzyquilts]

I absolutely agree with that!

Your quilts look great Jewells! You're just like.. creatively on fire this year!

I've given myself very little in the way of goals and expectations. I think it has helped a lot. When I try to get too much done I stress out, and this is supposed to be fun. So no more of that.

Those quilts are so cheery and fun! Some little kiddies and their parents will be thrilled!

I love brights, can you tell? :)

Loved the quilts! They are so cute. The candy one is my favorite. I can't wait to see what you quilt on your wine quilt top.

I'm still trying to figure that out. I have batting pieced, but need to baste it.

I wasn't a fan of the candy quilt, until AFTER I quilted it, then I loved it!
