"House on Willow Farm" - My son lives in a 100 year old renovated brick farm house and the farm is lined with twisted branch willow trees. I thought the design fit perfectly but had to add "Katie" the beagel.
Together We Can - Quilt created with my picture image machine applique process. Inspired by a photo taken of my son's classmates at a field day in Hinsdale, IL. They were carrying a huge earth ball across the field using teamwork to get it there.
WBB Butterfly - Quilt designed for the Milwaukee Art Quilters Challenge "Self Portrait of the Artist as an Animal"
Creeping Caterpillars, how did this quilt artist get so buggy? WBB grew up with a father who is an entomologist. Combine that with the creative challenge and this is what happens!
Pure Joy, Imagine That - This quilt was chosen as one of the 50 quilts for the 2006 Husqvarna Viking Gallery of Art. The image of my daughter leaping for joy, just for the fun of it inspired me. Ahhh, to frolic with jubilant mirth and delight for no other reason than just for the pleasure of it. Imagine that!
Solitude - This quilt is created with my picture image machine applique process and inspired by a photo taken of my son when we were visiting Monterrey Bay, CA. Misty, rainy December day at the sea shore.
Reflections of God's Skin - I wish the people of the world would take time to observe how nature celebrates diversity. Everywhere, the colors of God’s skin co-exist in harmony. All of the colors of the majestic, towering tree individually shine while at the same time unite in a harmonious symphony. I wish the colors of the people of the world would do the same.
Adam's quilt - Wanted something bright and colorful for my little one's "big boy" bed. Set a goal to learn how to match points -- and got a lot of practice along the way!
Just for me - Drafted this based on a photo of a wallhanging in Keepsake Quilting catalog. I learned the hard way how important it is to include seam allowances between blocks when calculating the quilt size! It's a bit narrow and short, but iwith one side of the bed against the wall, no one knows the difference :-)
Family Ties - Set out to learn machine applique on a small project that would use up some scraps. This was a lot of fun to make. Did the quilting myself -- still need a lot of practice on that. Sorry, I can't figure out how to make the image vertical.
