Kindred Spirits - I made this shop model using the Laurel Burch cat and dog fabrics "Kindred Spirits" with the Thimbleberries Tree Farm throw pattern. The bright colors grew on me and since I love real cats and dogs, it seemed very appropriate.

A Chameleon Variation - This quilt and it's reverse companion are also displayed on the designer's website (http://kameleonquilt.com/) under "Quilts by Others" and I'm referred to as "Julie in Idaho".

Quilt Crossing Sampler - A Saturday Sampler quilt presented by the Quilt Crossing in Boise, Idaho. It was a BOM during 2002 and finished in 2003. I added the mini-blocks in the border.

Captured Pinwheels - I adapted and redrew the venetian chain and combined it with an unknow block reworked to add dimentional red triangles.

Tulips and Butterflies - My granddaughter picked this pattern. I knew it would be difficult because of the dreaded Y seam but am quite happy with the results.

Catherine's Choice Bureau - I saw a similar quilt in a Quilt Shop and adapted from there. Unfortunately I don't have any more information on it.

Christmas Bears - Red and White Chrismas quilt. Quilting is continuous line in bear paws and feathered wreaths in white spaces.

Fruit Loops - Guild challenge using five of their selected colors and a theme of fruit loops. I added the appliqued fruit.

Mary's Hearts - It was my first mini and I loved making it. Mary was very pleased with the quilt.

Butterflies are Free - I used a Kono Cotton jelly roll, brights. The butterflies and flowers are from Keepsake quilting and fused on the quilt top and blanket stitched by hand.

Star - I made the quilt for charity. I used Marty Michelle's flying geese ruler and don't remember where the pattern came from. I also did all of the quilting by free motion, another skill I'm trying to learn.

A Bouquet of French Flowers - I received 5 fat quarters from a friend who purchased them in France. I decided to try this technique and completed the top in a week in December 2003. I started hand quilting and completed it in early in 2004 while recovering from my open heart surgery. I used Carol Armstrong's hand quilting designs.

Flower Power - I hand draw Artist Trading Cards (ATC's) and I used one of my cards as the inspiration for this quilt. This was a guild challenge. We each selected one fabric and cut it into 12 fat quarters. We had to use all of the 12 plus we could add one fabric. It was lots of fun and I won the challenge.

Stars and Bars - Challenge quilt, had to be black and white with another color. I started the center years ago to make a black and white quilt and made the center, while taking an online quilt class on borders. Never finished the class or the quilt. Now it will be done!

GuangYing's Heart quilt - GuangYing's One Hundred Good Wishes Quilt. the first quilt I made.
