Twister Pinwheel for Cousin Mary

The Gift of Quilts

Back in October of 2011, we hosted a Droppleman family reunion at The Blue Dove in Lexington. Alison and her Cousin Annie used the opportunity to present their Cousin Mary Kay with a quilt that they had created for her. The quilt is made using a traditional Twister Pinwheel pattern.

Nanny

Alison's mom was still in reasonably good health back in 2011. Here is a four-picture series of Alison's parent's that I find particularly charming.

Animalia

"It's got a yummy back"

Alison's latest quilted creation is titled Animalia, an homage to the animal kingdom and a birthday gift for our young neighbor here in Lexington. In Alison's words, this quilt has a "yummy back," made from a variety of flannel prints.

Eli @ 21

On a completely unrelated note, Eli turned 21 two days ago. Last night, we took him out to dinner along with three of his roommates and his cousin Ally, who lovingly endured a 22-hour bus ride from northern Indiana to celebrate the day with him. Although we were dining at the Blue Mountain Brewery in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Eli chose not to join his cousin and sample the local brew. The night before was brew enough, apparently.

Quilted with Love... for Sarah

For Sarah

During our weekends in Lexington, Alison spends every spare minute in her sewing nook, making a quilt for someone. The quilt pictured here was made as a birthday present for her niece Sarah Droppleman.

Alison has made many other quilts. I'll post them here as soon as I find pictures of them all!
