Here Come the Blooms - This quilt will be traveling the country this year (2014-2015) as part of the "Hoffman Fabric Challenge" exhibit. Although the challenge fabric was not really an appropriate fabric for a "One Block Wonder" quilt, I felt that I could still make some fun kaleidoscopes with the challenge fabric and some Paula Nadelstren fabrics I had in my stash. It ended up looking like my spring garden, flowers in all stages of growth and bloom.

My Totoro - I made this machined applique quilt for my granddaughter. It is now going to be made into a wall hanging because her mother wants it on the wall. It is rough edged applique.

Rebird and Berries Mini Quilt - Designed for the Moda Bake Shop using a Mini Charm Border, Applique Bird, Perfect Circle Berries and Bias Stems. A lovely additional to any home decor!!

Starlette - Starlette is Star Struck's little sister at approximately one third of its size. I has 4,582 half inch hexagons, and appliqued circles and ovals.

1938 - I made this quilt from an old street photo taken in Wellington, New Zealand in August 1938. The quilt depicts my Father aged 4, holding hands with his Mother , together with his Aunt. I always loved the photo and enjoyed how it show that even as times change , family and what that means, stays the same. This quilt won 1st place in the art human image catagory at Road to California in 2014.

Highlands Houses - I rescued a shirt my Dad never wore from the donation pile, and turned it into this little quilt. It was one wrong turn after another, but I guess I ended up with something unique at the end. Don't painters call that a "happy accident?" ;)

Geese Over The Hoffman Garden 2014 - This is my entry for the 2014 Hoffman Fabric Challenge.

I will be taking on this coming years challenge to better improve on my techniques! so happy to have participated!

The Pigness in Us All - This portrait quilt was part of an exhibition which included makers from south Africa, France and Japan.

I chose the Japanese director Haya Miyazaki who has a great regard for pigs.
