Ribbon Candy: I've seen similar quilts called ribbon candy so guess it's as good a name as any. A friend gave me the bits all cut out and I happened across a pattern in a quilt magazine that set them either in a color pattern or diagonally. I decided to just sew it and not try to arrange the colors and I love the affect of two colors coming together to create different shapes. I didn't have anyone in mind when I sewed it up, therefore it isn't finished with batting and back yet, but some grandchild will get it so I can see it from time to time....heehee. stay tuned!!

Wedding Quilt: Soft beiges and whites in all tone on tone fabrics done in the yellow brick road pattern. I had several odd bits from my neighbor who quilts so it was very easy to put together so like fabrics didn't touch although you can't tell that from the picture. Not sure the practicality of the appliqued bejeweled butterfly long term, but it can be removed if it begins to look shabby.
