Rhapsody in Bloom - Designed while attending Rikki Tim's workshop in Paducah, KY in July, 2007. Thanks, Rikki!

Year 2 teachers Quilt - Made for my sons Year 2 teacher. I make a quilt every year for the teacher. Karen wanted Autumn tones. The childrens names are embroidered around the flowers.

Miranda's Whimsical Triangles - I enjoyed this class by JoAnn Belling in early 2007. It was a fun quilt to make for my new granddaughter. I used brights from my stash with a few extra fabrics to round it out.

Almost Mini Blues - I needed to complete a mini quilt for my quilt guild in California. I found this design by Nancy Rogers and loved her use of blues and batiks. I adapted it so it would meet the 12" requirements--or so I thought. I was off enough in my seam allowances that it came out 13" square. :( It worked out in my favor in the end. I made another one for the guild and kept this "almost" mini quilt for myself.

Now you see me, Now you don't - Miniature quilt made from 80 x 1 inch blocks, foundation pieced in silks. An original block design inspired by Black and White "Tudor" buildings. Different orientation of fabrics and block rotation provide movement across the quilt top and the "now you see me now you don't" look of the quilt.

Macey's Quilt - I found this easy pattern and fabric while on a trip to Oregon last February. Had new grandbabies coming in 2007 so I bought. This was the first quilt that I quilted on my HG Sixteen. It was so fun.

Unknown - Made by my great-grandmother. My Mom used to hang on Quilt Rack on wall or even put on guest bed. Survived thru several generations. After my mom passed away, I thankfully got this quilt as one of many quilt keepsakes.

Tea for Two Times 9 - I received all the teapots from a block exchange I participated in with avery talented and fun group of gals in a Bee I belonged to in Dallas. I received 18 blue and white teapots and then I set them with the tea cups that I machine appliqued. And the little squares on point on the outer border represent tea bags.

Anniversary Quilt - This quilt was made for my in-laws for their 50th Wedding anniversary. I love to do applique and am not really fond double wedding ring pattern, so I left the center open for applique that was inspired by a pattern by Nancy Pearson. Of course being from Texas, I had to add bluebonnets to the floral bouquet.

Ann's sampler - Ann admired the quilts I had made her sister who is my daughter-in-law and asked if I'd make one for her. Unable to say no, I told her I'd work on it in my spare time. I decided on a sampler using the Crazy Ann block on the 4 corners. The quilt was completed and sent to Ann within 6 months.

Brett Farve - Other side of quilt.

Brett Farve Rag Quilt - I made this quilt ( and hope to make several more like it) to donate for area charity/fundraisers. Any suggestions on what I can do to not have the number 4 from the other side of the quilt show? See picture of each side.

Neck Tie - This quilt is made from over 200 different neck ties.

Lake Sunset - I started this in a Class entitled "Branch Out" on the subject of trees, at Quilting by the Lake with teacher Rosalie Dace.

Bali Nights - I made this quilt for my son's 16th birthday.

Summer - This is a nice remembrance for my all too short stay in the Central Coast area of California. I lived not too far from Buellton for a couple years. This is another wall hanging of my "For Everything There is a Season" series. I just have Spring left to do.
