Those are really pretty. I love the colors in the baby quilt
especially.
Webshots is getting a little aggressive with their ads! :-)
(but it was worth it)

Thanks, Sherry! I appreciate your braving Webshots to take a look. I think
it's time to look at Flickr or something like that.

Done is good! And how lucky your niece will be!
Just moved most of my stuff to Flickr from Webshots and was really
impressed with how easy and quick it was. It took way longer to find
the files that hadn't been renamed from the camera. Should'a done it a
long time ago!

You didn't waste any time after retirement, Louise. :-) Terrific
quilts, both!
I'm very partial to quilts with dark backgrounds. Really makes your
solid stars "pop"!
And the baby quilt is adorable. Very interesting pattern.
Best regards,
Michelle in Nevada

Thanks, Michelle! The baby quilt was really easy - simply a 9-patch
alternating with a snowball, but the resulting design comes from the
placement of the fabric. If I'd made the snowball corners orange, it would
have looked entirely different. Hmm, now that I think about it, I might have
enough fabric left to try that!
