Sticks and Stones 1 won the Modern Quilt Category at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham UK in August 2017.
The patchwork and the quiting were all improvised and it was fun to play aorund with the fabric.
I made this mini quilt thinking my teacher Jinny Beyer and as a gift for her. It is a sign of respect for her and American people.
This quilt is my first American patriotic quilt and I sewed it earlier Ukrainian patriotic quilt.
This quilt is tessellation.
2017 BOM, done in Black, Red & White. I also call it the 'free' quilt becasue no 'new' fabric was purchased to make it - specifically for it! Ya know, sometimes Red just speaks and you must buy!
Just finished this after receiving the last months pattern. I love it, not sure how I will quilt it. It was a well written pattern

Thought I'd share my version of Halo Medallion. It was a lesson in precision piece and I love how it turned out!
Sue Garman's provideded by TQS is my first BOM and I really enjoyed the challenge especially the flying geese blocks. The quilt top is completed and being quilted by the talented Richard Larson.
The difference between possible and impossible is perception. A long time practitioner of Zentangle I wanted to adapt tangles (patterns) to continuous line free-motion quilting. Several were simple, many took a little more work and others I thought were not possible. Altering my mindset from “impossible” to “I haven’t figured it out yet!” led me to discover how to quilt ‘tripoli’ one of the tangles featured in this quilt.
Made with rows from Southeaster Wisconsin. First submittal to Sew Much More in Waukesha, WI so got 25 fat quarters!
Scrappy Hidden Wells. I used 2 1/2 strips. This was made for my church and was donated to an immigrant family that is new in my area. It was made to be used as a sofa comforter so it is smaller than a regular sized quilt.
New Year's quilt for Quilt fest in Ukraine. Bright, colorful made in the form of balls on the Christmas tree. Balls have volume and all want to touch them. Each ball has its own original design. The entire quilt is embroidered with French knots resembling snow. I congratulate everyone on the New Year - let everything be fine!
A lap quilt designed for the comfort of DH in his recliner. The first quilt I cut with an Accuquilt cutter.
This is a scrap quilt -- an effort to use up tiny scraps saved from multiple projects -- randomly pieced and free-motion quilted.
Years ago I did two Edyta Sitar exchanges. One for batik strips and one for HST's (Alex and Ricky signed theirs!) This is what I made from those exchanges. Kept trying to figure out what to do and whallah, the quilt fairies told me to put them all together. Pieced and quilted them up in 2016. Posted now because of Edyta Sitar doing the Quilt Show BOM for 2018. Used the tones of all the fabrics to make movement in the quilt.
