Two Very Busy Grandmas!

Late last year, I attended a one-day mystery quilt work day put on by the Golden Triangle Quilters.

I worked on my pieced BOM quilt, but it was fun to visit and watch the others work on the mystery quilt or mystery tree skirt.

One of the ladies attending, Frances Reedy,  pieced this lovely quilt, a Sudoku pattern, and Mary Wallace had just finished quilting it.

It was one of SEVEN quilts Frances had made for Christmas presents in 2007! I think Mary said it was the sixth quilt she had quilted THAT WEEK for Frances! That level of creation just boggles my mind!

Dot Livingston had this picture of her grandchildren posing with quilts she had made for her beautiful grandchildren between in a very short period of time in 2007:

"I made quilts from April 21, 2007, through October 7, 2007, this year. I starting after taking Nancy's class April 21 in Starkville for the wack and stack quilt. I finished the 10 for the 10 grandchildren and then had time to add the MSU quilt for their father and the Tessalating star quilt for their mother. It was quite a challenge, and my husband and I delivered them to Colorado the end of October 2007. This was an early part of their Christmas." Dot Livingston, Starkville, MS

Dot let me photograph the snapshot to share on my blog.  I just adore this picture! I watched Dot's precision work at the Mystery Quilt Day. Those are some very fortunate grandchildren!

I love the photo of all the quilts hanging from the upstairs balcony. What amazing productivity!
