A Cabin for Dad

Finally One For Me

The Divorce Chronicles:Staying on the Bright Side2 - This is #2 in my series TDC. I thought this looked like spinning wheels and there were many days that it felt like that was all I was doing...spinning my wheels and getting nowhere during the divorce. I plan to quilt this with three circles, small, medium and large working from the center of each "wheel". That should give it a nice radiating look and create alot more movement.

A Star for Grandma

The Divorce Chronicles:Staying on the Bright Side1 - My divorce was ugly and it uprooted me and my three Saint Bernards. Quilting and my Saints along with family and friends have kept me going during this dark time. So I challenged myself to make 12 quilts this year, using black batik as the background representing the divorce and bright colors to represent hope, rebirth, life, love, fun, etc. I never used black so much before this and found I love it!

Auntie's Angel's-Scott - made this one for Aidan's uncle Scott for Christmas. He is a huge fan of the Oakland Raiders, so black and white seemed perfect for this one. simple triangles twisted and turned to make the eyes go everywhere!

Work in Progress - My children have named this one for me, due to the fact that i have been working on it for over a year now. The current piece has new borders attached to it and my vision is to have a king sized quilt top by the time it is finally finished. Maybe within the next year this vision will be achieved. Wish me luck!

Gavin's Rag Quilt - made for a family friend, third quilt ever!
