I love Polly's quilt. One day I will make a Burgoyne Surrounded quilt. And I have made hearts like the ones Cheryl is working on. They are so much fun. You ladies are so prolific. I wish I had so much time to work on my quilts. My guild retreat is coming up in a couple of weeks, so I am looking forward to getting a lot done in the woods!

It was interesting to see your projects. All are nice. Someday I hope to do a velvet one. Btw--I think of all you girls, you favor your mother the most in your looks. Thanks for posting.
