Study in Color 1 - I made this quilt as one of two. Using the same fabric for both I just reversed the location of the colors. i wanted to see how they compared. First quilt I ever quilted.

Butterfly Fairey - My first appliquee project.

Pearls of Wisdom - This quilt is the result of an on-line class through Machine Quilter's Resource. More photos are on my Webshots album.

Old Workshirts Never Die... They Just Get Retooled - Nick didn't want to let go of his favorite old work shirts, and asked if I would use them in a quilt for him. He also threw in a few favorite pair of old boxer shorts!! I cut them and backed the fabrics with a light interfacing. He likes the simple drawings of the children at our school, so I fashioned the center which features a primitive design of a Russian Orthodox Church, in which I printed icons for the windows. I also used two raccoon embroideries which were on a favorite old towel of his. He had wanted old jeans for the back, but it would have been impossible to quilt. I found a great fabric with a tool motif. And, of course, there is a tiny acorn at the base of the tree.

Watercolor Garden - My 1st Watercolor quilt. There is a machine emb bee on the quilt. I also made a machine emb. butterfly and then attached him to the top for a 3D affect.

Batman - Made for the son of a friend. He loves Batman and I had this fabric for years. So when she said his bday was coming up I thought time to use the fabric.

Lord of the Rings close-up - I've been asked for a closeup of the block so here it is.

Margaret - Hoffman/Sulky 2009 challenge quilt. Set in the mid 1920s. Inspired by a Dover Art Deco drawing (greatly changed). I designed the vases, the flowers on the dress and belt and redesigned a royalty free dog design and embroidered them from Sulky threads. The quilting is all free motion on a domestic machine. This is in memory of my mother in law who would have been in her early twenties about the time this scene is set.

Circles - Made this at Jennie Rayment Workshop

Jared's Quilt

Sunset Dream - I have only just started quilting and thought I would have a go at the convergence quilt shown on the show by Ricky Tims. I spray dyed some fabric in orange and green contrasting colours and bound it in black

Party Quilt - This was a class that taught us a basic block that we then adapted to our own rendition of a "Party Quilt".

Starstruck - Quilt made for my husband for our 20th Anniversary - Pictures of 1937 Chevrolets that he has restored incorporated in the quilt.

Sassy Stripes - Made as a wedding gift. Will make it's home on a red sofa.

Sherryl's Tulips - Pattern was changed from a 9 1/2 inch block to a 12 inch block

Christmas Runner II - Yet another runner, for the dresser this time. I had a lovely bundle of Christmas prints arrive and just dove in.
