You Are My Sunshine - This was one of my first quilts and I thought this would be a great nap time quilt for a younger child. It was my first excursion into choosing my own fabrics.

Carmel macchiato - This was a quilter's night out class where we sewed till 3:00 a.m. I love the warm earthy colors in this quilt!

Garden Window - This is my first quilt. It was shown on a TV show (Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting) where they featured how easy making all those half-square triangles was and this inspired me to just do it. Learning to quilt was something I wanted to do for a very long time. I am very pleased with how it turned out.

Flannel Brick Road - I made this quilt for my son, Scott. This is my second quilt. Completed February 2007.

Scrappy Bear's Path - I took a class at the Puyallup, WA Sewing & Stitchery Expo in late February 2007 and this was the class project taught by Marti Michell and Marilyn Paul. I finished this in May of 2007.

Bear Lake Beauty - This is a 12 block quilt. Each block was fused and hand appliqued. The quilt was machined pieced and hand quilted.

Turning Twenty - I made this quilt for my daughter. This is my fourth quilt. Completed in June 2007.

Through the Looking Glass - This is a queen-sized quilt. I learned a lot making this quilt. How to match points, since there are so many of them... And finally I got up enough nerve to do some "official" free-motion quilting. See my blog for additional photos of this quilt as a work in progress. This is my fifth quilt. Completed September 2007.

Grandma's Family Hug - I made this quilt for my grandmother using the handprints of her immediate family (mine is in lower right corner) and centered them around a few words of love. I gave the quilt to her for Christmas the year before she died.

Kevin's Random Ties - Made of a ties from a good friend, silk rescued from an old futon, and muslin to foundation piece. Piecing order for tie fabric was chosen using a deck of cards shuffled to test out a random approach to piecing.

My Learning Quilt - This was my FIRST quilt that I titled "My Learning Quilt". I started it in 1986 at a Mo. Homemakers Extension meeting and finished it finally on January 6, 2006!

Jordan's Crayola Quilt - It's called Jordan's Crayola Quilt for the Bright Primary colors and for my grand-daughter Jordan.

Heroes and Victims - Panels painted on the backes of my old police shirts representing 911 from devastation to the start of recovery. Background quilted with a diverse selection of vitims' names.

Sweet Treats - A small Christmas themed wall quilt from a block of the month program based on Pat Sloan's book. I fuzed and hand appliqued on top of a pieced background.

What a Bore - Quilt based on a Picture taken in Alaska while waiting for the Bore Tide to come in.

Fall Dreams - Made from a wonderful picture of my daughter taken while day dreaming on the porch
