Christmas Wreaths - Made as Christmas gifts for various friends and family

quilted cowboy - I made this quilt for my brothers partner Michael, He works as a DJ for Charlies in Chicago, IL It is a country and western bar so this suited him perfectly.

The Polka-Dot Girls - Patterns Polka-Dot-Girls , designer of the pattern is Bronwyn Hayes. I have made a big carpet, the orginal size is 61 1/2" x 61 1/2". My carpet is 55" x 85" inch.

My ugliest Quilt - Block swap from a norwegian forum. Picture is only the topp, the carpent is finished but I not have a picture yet.

The "Grands" - I used Bonnie Lyn McCaffery's technique of face painting then fused applique for the hair and clothing. Batting is added to help make the faces stand out from the background which is heavily quilted.

Growth Over Time - I had done the 'nine patch' of Linda Franz' hand pieced diamonds and then I just kept making up different borders to go around it. It kept growing until it finally fit our queen sized bed nicely, finishing at 89" x 98".

Christmas Welcome - I made this quilt ten years ago for my wife as a Christmas present. It was my first ribbon at a quilt show. The judge's comment was so special I will always remember it, "I would love to have this quilt in my house at Christmas!" I thought I would share it this Holiday season.

Bill's "Catch of the day" - This piece is made from a photo. It is fused applique, hand painted and lightly quilted. I made it for Bill's surprise birthday party, yes-he was surprised and has this hanging in his den.

At The Grange - A friend took a photo of me and my horse Irish at a horse show, and I used reverse applique to make this quilt.
