Colleen visited her stash and came up with 2 new projects. She made the first project for a new grandchild.
She says, “This quilt is for my new grandson. He is the 4th boy, and they live in Texas. I thought he needed a Texas themed quilt, so I put on horses and Texas stars.

She describes the second project:
Last fall my sisters and I signed up to take a class from Kim Diehl on appliqué. I got sick and had to come home early and missed the class on this quilt, “Bittersweet Briar”. I already had purchased the background and the green, so I started in January and finished it this Spring. All the other fabrics are scraps and a few fat quarters I purchased. It was my first attempt at a primarily appliquéd quilt. Kim had a tan background, but I switched to a black one. I quilted in between the stripes in the background, and loved the way it turned out.

Thanks for sharing Colleen.
They are beautiful, Colleen. I am so impressed.
I love the applique piece. It is quite beautiful.
