Mexican Star - This was made in my second quilt class in Tampa, Fl., December, 2004. It was a fun quilt to make but the quilting I did was on a small, but great Brother sewing machine, and was a challenging project. Nice job.
rambling rose - Machine pieced background, hand qpplequed design, i used the Pat Mclaughland method of applequing onto violeene first then slip stitched onto background, i also stuffed the centers. then heavily quilted by hand, final border is machined. ( fed up by this time )
CrazySquares & DesignerCranes - One of my first attempts at working with the crazy quilt block and broderie perse cranes. I was so proud of the final product that I hung it in my bedroom where I can see it everyday. Very striking.
Tiger, Tiger - This is a whole cloth quilt, painted in Tsunieko inks, following an outline tiger pattern from Patt Blair. The painted image is then thread painted.
Pueblo Kaleidescope - This kaleidescope was made from challenge fabrics from the Pueblo Quilt Expo. It was paper pieced from a design created from EQ5.
View from my window - The wallhanging was inspired by Rose Hughes techniques. Was a challenge quilt, contains paper foundation piecing, fused applique and machine quilt.
Phillipa's Quilt - Traditional dresden plate block used to create a bold, striking design from a collection of black and white prints set on a vibrant red background.
Magnolia - This was a Quilt University project for "Flower Power" by Susan Brittingham, Instructor. Since one of my favorite flowers is the magnolia, I selected it for my project. Photo of the subject is below the quilt.
angel auction quilt back - This was made for a silent auction to raise money for Annalise Pelton, a three year old little angel diagnosed with Neuroblastoma cancer, and her family. I know it went to a good home.
Lori's birthday quilt - I won this fabric, not my usual choice ,youngest daughter fell in love with the quilt as I was making it, I said she could have it for her 18th birthday.
A Gerber Daisy a Day - One of several I have made using the "Turning Twenty" patterns. Easy cutting and assembly and it goes quickly and just changing the color combinations gives a totally different look.
Luv doing quilt tops - so fortunate to have a long arm quilter nearby.
More to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pretty in Pink - Another Turning Twenty pattern used in my summer 2008 projects and it looks like there will be a few more in 2009.
This one for a "grand - daughter" who loves pink (and shoes)
Vera Who????? - Pattern is from a Quilting Magazine - (which one -I will have to research and add later)
This for a "grand-daughter" , a Very Bradley fan, just off to college.
Great for the dorm and "In Fashion"
