Two new Quilts Done

I finished two quilts. It seems I never learn.  I tend to do my quilting in the fall before Christmas. I have to get the frame down in time to put up the Christmas tree and I don't want to stay inside during the summer. However, hand quilting two queen sized quilts back to back is hard on the old arthritic hands.  The leaf quilt was especially big and took four spools of quilting thread.  I don't like the quilt.  The picture on the pattern looked a lot nicer.

Actual Quilt


 But my daughters liked it so I am giving it to Martha  The other sampler quilt started as a quilting class project.Gretel liked it so I am giving it to her. However when I put it on my bed I had second thought but she will get it anyway.
