8 to the Bar - I wanted to use my music fabric and my own design. It was shown at Quilt Colorado last June and at "Symphony of Quilts" in Mesa, AZ this past March.

God's Promise - I made this quilt for a childhood friend who collects Noah's Ark things. Another childhood friend of ours hand embroidered the animals in the border. There are more photos on my Webshot's album here: http://entertainment.webshots.com/album/571134684NJknKm?vhost=entertainment

Baby Grand - I made this for my stepmother's 70th birthday. She is a piano teacher.

Round Barn on St. Mary's Road

My First Lone Star - This class was taught by Peggy Hunting. There were no patterns involved we just went through the steps that she taught.

The Birth of Logic - I LOVE labyrinths! It was quite a challenge to make this highly structured form from the coiled wrapped closeline technique. After it was formed: how to get it under the needle to sew it!! It evolved into this organic form that needed it's own showcase. The tail reminded me of an umbilical cord...hence the name.

Connectivity - The secondary patterns that emerged as blocks were turned, reminded me of how we are all connected. I believe it is important to focus on our similarities and connectivity, rather than on our differences in order to have a more peaceful journey through life. Embellishments inspired by Libby Lehman.

Curvy Cabin - I designed the traditional Log Cabin block to gently curve, giving it a contemporary look, for my entry into the Valley Quilters Guild's Challenge "Something Old is New Again". The free-motion quilting uses my interpretation of McTavishing designs.

Spring - This quilt was made for a school fundraiser . The blocks are made by second graders, then I put it together adding the sashing & borders. It was alot of fun just looking at the art work while I quilted. The auction is not for another week I hope it does well.

MY Happy Quilt - Made with scrps and fat quarters, this lap quilt used some 40 yr.old fabric from my stash and just to look at it makes me happy, hense the name "Happy Quilt".

Purple Garden Windmill - This is the third quilt I made.

English Garden - I saw this quilt on a shop hop in Sarasota and made it for my daughter that Christmas.

Scrappy Stars - Very large quilt that just seem to grow! this was a gift for my youngest son and his wife.

Chenille Hot Pad - This is a hot pad made out of homespun material. I took a class at the Creative Cloth Closet taught by owner, Denise Hovey. I gave this hot pad to my daughter-in-law, Victoria Lautaret as a Christmas gift.
