Batik Beauty - This is the first queen sized quilt I made and quilted on my new Mega Quilter and Inspira Frame.I added the hand-dyed border that was not called for in the pattern.
The Ball Park - This quilt was designed as a baseball diamond. quilted with baseballs, bats and the Olde English "D" for the Detroit Tigers. Center baseball is embroidered with the owners name.
DianeDoodles Butterfly-Fairy Nursery - A Mississippi Quilters Guild Quart bag Challenge Project. I saw the silks and cocoons in the bag and knew I had to design a 'Butterfly-fairy baby hatchery'. It was super fun!!

Sunflower wall hanging quilt .. for a friend - A wall hanging for a friends birthday, she grows huge sunflower's so when I saw this pattern in a magazine I just had to make it for her
Serenity - Pink - 8.5"x11" - this piece is part of a color study to match B&W print fabrics with fabric that read as a solid - back is "finished" and embellished as well
The Woodlands II The Fawn - Another in the series of three that was a tribute to Louis Tiffany. This is also a victorian applique quilt. Probably best described as an intermediate technique that is very easy to learn. See The Brook for more info.
The Woodlands I The Brook - This is an awesome technique that I learned from Marie Seroskie from her patterns. I love that the quilt appears to be so very difficult when in fact the actual process is rather simple . I have recently taken stained glass classes (actual glass) and along with the knowledge I learned from Marie's patterns, I can easily convert glass patterns to fabric or vise versa! How cool is that? It measures 18 1/2" x 37".
Memories of Jacob - I wanted to make a wall hanging for my friends whose son had passed away. The words in the border are his Confirmation verse, he was 17 and loved the color orange.
