Wayne's Quilts

I love to make quilts. Large and small; for beds and walls. I especially like bright colors and geometrics. Please look through my showcase. Tell me what you think: you can leave a comment below a particular quilt, send an email (wsrhodes@gmail.com),and/or sign my Guestbook (on the right side as you scroll down). Some are for sale; click on "Needs A Loving Home" to see these. And if you are interested in having a quilt made for you, drop me a line and we'll see what we can work out.
