Aaron’s Nursery Rhyme Quilt By: Wanda Robinson, Oklahoma, USA It began 18 yrs ago. Took 2 years to find the right inspiration for my nephew. Since my dear sis-in-law (his mom) is a quilter I wanted it to be just perfect. Finished for his 18th b-day June 16th! All hand quilted and appliqued. Hardest part was taking a decent photo. Do you recognize the stories? Quilt size: width: 43" height: 57" |

Cherry Mash Meets Sun Bonnet Sue By: Reeze Hanson, Kansas, USA The quilt was the result of a guild challenge where a candy bar had to be the inspiration for a quilt. I got a Cherry Mash. Never having eaten one, I bit into it and nearly gagged from the sickenly sweet confection. So I asked Sunbonnet Sue how cherries could have gone so wrong and she showed me.
