I discovered that I actually can make large quilts, as long as I use simple patterns. These are the quilts I made for my uncles. I made the quilt tops and backings and had them professionally quilted. I’m not into struggling to quilt large projects on my home sewing machine.
A big Thank You goes to the USPS: I mailed these quilts from Buda, Texas on a Saturday and both were delivered to my uncles (one in Colorado, one in east Texas) the following Monday.

Beautiful. Gave away my sewing machine a long time ago, which is a shame because my mother was really good at producing copies of the latest styles in magazines. But I have no artistic sense when it comes to sewing projects.
Thank you! I didn’t learn to sew until I was in my 30s. I’m still learning. Now I’m a mood to make quilts for my family.
