We celebrated pi day today, since we won't be at school Sunday. Lisa and Brad will be on college spring break next week and Lisa asked if we had the ingredients for pie, since Sunday is pi day. Yes, I have math geeks for family members!
This first quilt is one I got a kit for at our local quilt show several years ago. I had made up the top and had it, but it's not really me. My brother desperately wanted a new quilt and even though I didn't have their name that year I gave it to him at Christmas anyway, a year early! It took pressure off to make something the next year!
The next quilt is one I gave to my other brother and SIL. I did have their name that same year and SIL wanted a red/white/blue quilt star quilt, in the darker tones. Oh I just figured out the year I made these two, it was 2006.
This is one of three Laura in Redwork wallhangings I made and gave them as gifts. I had hoped to get one back on my friend's recent passing (my friend made me say which quilts I had made that I wanted back), but I didn't get it. That's fine, I still have the pattern!

You make such big quilts! I love all your use of color. What happened to the red quilt? I hope someone who will love it, has it.
Enjoy your show. I just firmed up a speaking gig in Puyallup for November. I'm also doing my program in Bellevue in June. It's really fun.
Wonderful colors - lucky recipients. I love the redwork one especially.
Hey! That's my quilt! I'm a lucky, lucky girl!
I am loving your quilt a day posts. It's so much fun to see your quilts!
Love your virtual trunk show!
