Annabeth's Quilt - I made this for my granddaughter, Annabeth. This is the 5th red and white quilt that I have made for a grandchild. My daughter has always loved red and white quilts and when it came time for baby quilts, she wanted red and white.
Tree of Life - Tree of Life was created using HSTs from the SOTTTs exchange. It all started with Edyta Sitar's first show on TQS. 160 quilters from around the world participated in this exchange. The quilt's roots are from the exchange, where a quilt (tree) grew. I quilted little fairies and magical creatures into the quilt to show how we all participated in the growth of this tree quilt. There are about 700 HSTs on it.
Batman - I purchased this pattern off craftsy.com. The original pattern only had one border so I decided to add the outside border with the bat signal on it. This quilt was made for my son Ryan for his birthday.
The Hues of Amber - I love amber, exploring the variations from the deep burgundy/brown to the butterscotch. I chose Fallert's gradation fabrics to showcase the shades I envisioned. As I was working on my design it seemed to spin on the wall.
Montana Tigers - From photos of my flowerbeds, I used three of Fallert's gradations, trapunto, feeling free motion quilting. A quilt is complete once it is shared.
The Monumental Way - I don't know how one could take a class or read a book of Katie Pasquini Masopust and not say "I have to try it"! Escaping from a very long, snow filled, cold winter I went to the Studio to create the warmth of the desert. Fallert's gradations gave life to my vision.
Some Bunny Loves You - A few years ago my daughter had a little dwarf bunny named Licorice who was a sweet little thing and when she passed I wanted to make a quilt in memory of her.
Sunshine - This is a portrait of my daughter from a recent trip to Mexico. It took me a long time to complete. She is a beautiful girl and I was afraid I couldn't do her beauty justice!
Traveling on the longest days - I made this quilt for the SewBatik Challenge at the Vermont Quilt Festival 2013. The theme was the Summer Solstice. It has 57 different fabrics, 392 pieces.
Lakeside Cottage - The 12 blocks were redesigned from a BOM I was taking. Each block was redrawn as a foundation pattern using EQ7. The layout is original as well as the center medallion.
The blocks were originally 12" and I shrunk them to 5"
A new life awaits - Made for a dear friend who is going through a rough time - the quilt is made from the Sakura Park range of fabric as she loves everything Japanese. My son has written the label in Japanese script which I think she will love.
