siapo of fabric - I have always liked orange as a colour and had just purchased a new sewing machine and was eager to try out the blanket stitching on it. This is the result, I think this quilt has a special glow to it.

Fatsia Japonica - This is the result of a class I took with Jenny Bowker, I loved the class as it pushed me out of my comfort zone.

Pacific Liberty - I purhcased the border stripe fabric and this is the quilt that grew as a result. I decided to hand quilt it and spent many hours doing so. I then machine quilted the outside triangles and when it was completed I was disapointed that it did not hang flat. I do have it hanging at home and still do love it.

Small Praise - This is a small preprinted block wall hanging, quilted in quarters on my Brother PR620 Embroidery machine. It was given to my Sunday School class.

Hourglass bag - I made this bag for my mom. For her birthday in 1906. It is a rather big bag. She wanted a bag for when she go to gymnastic. But she never uses it. She says it is to pretty to use lol. The Design I build this bag from had a pokket on the front. I put the pokket inside the bag. Since you else would not be able to see the design on the bag. The other side of the bag is indentical to the front you see on the picture. So it does not matter what side you have showing.
