CAMEO Quilt Guild Challange: Favorite Michigan Season by Nancy Bekofske |
It seemed like I have not made many quilts in 2016 because so many are still in process. But I did finish some a few projects and tops.
I made two small quilts for my sister-in-law using her heirloom lace.

My very favorite quilt of 2016 is William Shakespeare. The idea came to me in the morning, I was at the quilt shop buying fabric before noon, and had the design worked out and cutting started before day's end.

I made this in a hexies class with Mary Clark.
Another top I finished was Kit Fox, a pattern from Sew Fresh Quilts.
