This green/ gold/ and brown flannel quilt came from a kit Leslie bought at Morganson’s in Payson.  It was quilted by Virginia Gore.  A very beautiful quilt to cuddle up in on a long winter’s night.  

Meow Mixed by Sylvia Kent
Sylvia made this cute quilt for her stepson,  and his wife.  He likes cats and this is a stack and whack quilt made from cat fabric.  It is bordered with red, gold and blue with blue print on the back.  It was quilted by Kelly at the Quilting Cottage in American Fork in an all over star pattern to go with the stars formed by triangles. 

 Hugs and Kisses by Sylvia Kent
This quilt design is from a pattern called Tic-Tac-Toe and Sylvia added an extra row and called it Hugs and Kisses.  This darling quilt is a gift for Sylvia’s stepdaughter Ashley and her boyfriend.  The colors are bright bordered in floral and bound in black polka dots.  The circles are machine appliquéd with turned edges.  The exes are pieced.  The back is minkee and it is quilted with hearts by the Quilting Cottage.  Ashley should feel very loved indeed.
