Beaver or Duck?
Here in Oregon there is a huge rivalry between the 2 big universities; Oregon State - Beavers and University of Oregon - Ducks. This last week I quilted two quilts for a high school raffle that are identical patterns but representing each school. The race is on to see which quilt will win with raffle ticket sales. So which do you choose? (Black and Orange are the Beaver colors; Green and Yellow are Duck colors)

Cat Quilt
I love cats and one of my customers loves cats too. So I got to quilt the cat quilt that she made. It turned out really well. I like the scrappy look. Lots of civil war fabrics and beautiful colors. It seems like I'm seeing fewer and fewer scrappy looking quilts and much more art quilts and quilts with big blocks and very contemporary fabrics. So I enjoyed quilting this quilt.
