Ricky loves Alethea's quilt for its traditional appearance that "fades" into the non-traditional by the use of fabric-collaged "Fiesta Beauties".

Alethea decided to make a bit of a statement by taking "super sexy" fabric and creating a woman who is doing it all...taking care of kids, making the meals, cleaning the house, all the while looking great doing it. Domestic Goddess will make you wish you had 10 arms as well.

Watch Alethea use both her arms in Show 2602.

Barbara used a striped fabric to create the large center star for Lone Star Garden. The appliqué designs were adapted from Pat Campbell's Jacobean Appliqué designs. The outer border is soft-edge pieced with a Jinny Beyer border stripe fabric. Barbara bought 15 yards of the border stripe over several trips to the store to be sure she had enough.

Watch Barbara in Show 2601.
