Here is a detail view. You can see the razorback patch that I was given to add. He was a big fan of the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Dr. Bates, My goodness, how do you do these so fast? It seems like I was just looking at your number 3 quilt. They are all so beautiful. You must not ever get tired of working using your hands.
I am taking your advise and getting ready to soon start making small quilts for my memory bears. I thought I would cut out 1 inch hexagon shapes and do it in that pattern, as the hexagons seem like an easy pattern for me to follow.
Oh, I hope I can do it!!!
Sure you can, Cathy! They will be easier to press if you stop at the intersection of the seams.
hello.... I saw you over on spirit cloth.... and I just had to tell you that I absolutely love your quilts. So far have in my quiklt making journey I have not gone beyond using squares and triangles to make quilts. I collect cool shirts to eventually make into quilts, but so far haven't cut them up...The memories sewn up in your quilts , the colors, the textures.... just amazing...
also enjoyed your snake information.. heard that recently a MAMUSHI had bit someone in our neighborhood... we get them in our yard...
Wow, your snakes are much scarier than the ones I usually see. Thanks for your nice comments.
