A post from Kelli–
Since I started quilting, I have been working to make sure that all of my family members have quilts to keep them warm. Â One of the best parts of getting married is getting more family–and more people to give quilts to. Â I started out with making Jason’s parents a quilt for Christmas a few years ago. Â When Jason’s sister graduated, she then got a quilt. Â When his brother got married, I gifted them with a quilt. Â This past February, I gave his Grandma–you guessed it a quilt.
One person that I hadn’t made a quilt yet for was his sister Megan. Â I decided this year to make her one for a Christmas gift. Â Mom designed this quilt a while ago and I have always loved it.
I also decided to try to get Puppy to pose with it. Â She doesn’t do quite as well as Ruby, but she is making progress…or she really wanted the treat that I was holding in my hand?
We don’t have the pattern quite ready for today, but we will definitely be giving it to you soon. Â New Year–New Pattern? Â Sounds great to me!
Today, we are hooking up with……Confessions of a Fabric Addict,  Link a Finish Friday,  Freedom Fridays,  and  Crazy Mom Quilts.
Did you see the  post about our daughter Kalissa and indecision about nursing school?
I’ll be looking forward to the photo. And I hope you’ll also be including a close up picture of the quilting.
Wow, your quilt is so pretty. I gave my niece a quilt this year. I have a SIL who also quilts, so it’s not always possible for me to quilt for the family.
That is one sweet quilt! And equally sweet pooch! I would love it if you would be so kind as to link up on my blog today. I am hosting the Thank Goodness It’s Finished Friday. Please visit me at http://sewfreshquilts.blogspot.com
I know that intense “I want that treat” look. I see it frequently!!
What a wonderful quilt, love the colors and the pattern. What a little sweetie wanting for a treat!
I have GOT to find a way to get into your family! Adoption?!
Can’t wait to see the tutorial!

Kelli, I’m looking forward to the pattern, it’s very pretty and different than a lot of the patterns! Have you and your mom thought about starting up a pattern company (even a small one)? I would for sure be a customer.
Awww, Kelli, that’s such a pretty quilt! I love the pattern. It’s almost Aztec but better with those bright colours. Great job & yes, will be waiting for the pattern. :-)
