Unity in Diversity, designed and made by Martha Tsihlas
c.2007

A couple of days ago I got a phone call from a potential customer. She would like me to make a memory quilt with photos but she wanted to see some of the work that I have done for clients. Since my website only shows my quilts in the Gallery section and my other blog has too much of everything I decided to create another blog. This blog will show clients work that I have created since Del Sol Quilts opened up in the fall of 2006. Besides doing long arm quilting for customers I have also been asked to make all kind of creative things. I won't be able to post photos of every single quilt I have quilted or made because a few times I have forgotten to take a photo. I will try my best with what I have documented up to today. If you have any questions please contact me at martha@delsolquilts.com
