Wrapped in the warmth of a cozy ol' quilt

Here is my fall/winter project. Yip...I am putting down the paint brushes for a while and trying my hand at quilting. My inlaws all quilt and have made several beautiful ones over the years. I am working on this one with 5 other gals (all of us making our own of the same pattern). It should be interesting to see them all done and us holding them up for pics...I'll be sure to post that one. I opted to go with a more "versatile" materials that I could keep out fall through winter. I didn't want to go with a full on "Christmasy quilt" like a couple of them opted. Here's mine laid out on the floor ready to be sewn...What ya think?

What a beautiful trip around the world quilt!

I think you were wise to make one that you can use beyond the holiday season.

Thanks Zoey...I have it stitched one way, now I have to stitch it the other and that's supposed to be the easy part...i guess I'm not the great quilter I thought I'd be...Can't even get this one completed. UG. LOL
