Acadia National Park - Simple design of center panel, squares, folded borders to highlight Northcott's Acadia National Park fabric. Gift to oldest step-daughter who was married there.

Americana - A small, scrappy, embelllished quilt constructed with leftover blocks and fabric from an earlier project, the only purchases being the binding fabric and the batting.

Delectable Mountains with matching shams - Picture was taken when newly-made. Also made curtains, dust ruffle along with coordinating table runners and wall hanging using other Eleanor Burns patterns. Worn out by constant washing (cats sleep on it).

Nine-Patch Party Quilt - Made from fabric left over from my Delectable Mountains quilt.

Forest Play - This project was a guild challenge using specific fabrics and a theme.

Bouquet of Wishes - Black and white cotton fabrics with colorful daisy applique and button centers. Quilting is a vase a and flowers in the middle flowers and branches with leaves in 2 corners. I found some pre cut black and white print squares in the bin at the local quilt store and thought it would be a good challenge to use them I added a few more and the quilt was born. I was made as a gift for a cancer patient when I asked her friend to tell me something about her wardrobe (can usually tell what colors a person like by what they wear) he said she wear black and white a lot, so I started with the black and white squares ....then a few days later he said she does where colorful tops some times, so I added the flowers for extra punch..

Baby - Donated fabric used to make this bright cheery Linus quilt

Natalie's Quilt - This quilt is a gift for my Grand Neice Natalie. It is white and purple. The quilting is that of Minnie and Mickie, Mickie ears and will have Natalies name on it .

Remi's Quilt - Soccer quilt for Grandson

Emmy's Quilt - This quilt was made for my first grandchild, Emmy (Emerson Louise). The top is made up of twenty 12" square blocks, using fabrics that are predominantly pink and green.

Sara and Scott's Signature Wedding Quilt - A miniature version of this quilt, 14 1/2" X 14 1/2", was printed in the Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting Magazine. I decided to enlarge it, and have the wedding guests sign the corner blocks of the Ohio Star Blocks. Guests signed the 3" squares, which were ironed onto freezer paper, and then the wedding quilt was constructed after the wedding. All of the fabrics are batiks.

Star of Wonder - This quilt has a Nancy Halvorson preprinted panel by Benartex in the center. There are additonal borders and sashings added for interest. Most of this came in a kit from a quilt shop I found on vacation this summer. It is free hand machine quilted with stippling within the cheater blocks of the preprinted panel to make it appear pieced as the rest of the quilt. This was a quick and fun quilt to make.

Anna Cate's Star Quilt - I chose to use bright fabrics for this baby quilt for Anna Cate, my great niece. There is only one large star quilt block, with two borders, so it went together easily.

Some of My Best Friends are Just Flakes - This wall hanging was made for the Childrens Emergency Fund Auction. It placed third in the OQG 2007 Show and sold for $300 at the Auction. Connie & I just looked through magazines, shop demos, stuff we had sitting around and drew our version of what we wanted to applique on each block.

When Galaxies Collide - Hand dyed spirals with a batik convergence border. This is a top only, that I'm going to be making into Roman blinds for my living room.

Molly's Quilt - Basting the Ricky Tims way - A quick gift for a good neighbour. I finished it simply with machine quilting in the ditch. Thanks Ricky for the suggestion for basting - I did two quilts that morning, one with a tacking gun and one with safety pins, and found it much easier on the frame. I just wish someone would invent clamps which were not so heavy.....

The Boy's quilt - Like old Welsh and North Country quilts, simply made by sewing together rectangles from a tailor's sample book (which I scrounged off a shop in Leeds). Cotton Velvet for the border, wool wadding. All made very quickly because the Boy had just moved to London and was living in a cold and draughty flat.
