Wong's 50th Anniversary - I designed this quilt using EQ5 software, Digital Scrapbooking Software, Photoshop Elements 5 for photo editing, Embird Embroidery software for the embroidery work, Kaleidoscope Kreater 2.0 software for backgrounds to some of the photos.
Shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day - The Boys and Girls Club does a benefit auction each year right around St. Patrick's day. This year, I gave them shamrocks!
Strait of Greens - This was a fun guild get together to sit and sew. I chose to make this quilt using the border with a flying crane. The corner squares I used machine embroider to do a crane in gold that I down loaded for free. A great quilt to use a variety of FQ's.
The colors in the quilt are made to go with the border and I used one of my favorite fabric line of Fossil Ferns.
Greens & Flowers - Made this quilt during a quilt guild all nighter to sit and sew. The corner squares have machine embroidered flowers to go with the quilt.
Mini Amish baskets in KS - Carol Doak came to our quilt guild and gave a workshop. This is the little quilt I made during the workshop. It was a fun time.
Momdoll's Baskets - Interesting quilt is a variety of plaid fabrics with off white background. One basket is facing a different way than the rest. An enjoyable quilt to own and look at. It hangs on the wall of my guest room.
Momdoll's Triangles - Quilt was made for my mother by her mother. I am happy to have had this quilt and have given it to my daughter who has it displayed on a wall of her home.
I Dreamed I Was A Flower - This quilt is the result of a recent class with Rosemary Eichorn on collage. Very fun class, and I even finished my project!! I like to add a touch of whimsy, so put the cats in from the Catberry Tails line by Debra Mason. The words in the bottom right of the photo say "I dreamt I was a flower".
Once More On My Adventure Brave and New - This quilt celebrates some of the many adventures that I have experienced so far in my life. I've combined my love of flowers, stained glass, photography, and quilting.
Celebrating Chandler - This small art quilt was done with "cartooned" photos of Chandler printed on muslin and then pieced together. The quilt was embellished with lots of ribbon, metallic thread, beads, buttons, etc. There is an overlay of fine smokey tuille which held the ribbon pieces, thread, etc., in place while I quilted it.
Marvelous Memories for Ashley - Using a traced template from a 1930 era quilt, I used scraps left from clothing items and photos of Ashley to create a memory quilt for her.
Not Grandma's Flower Garden - This quilt was the result of a quilt challenge between friends. The theme was "Flowers, Flowers, Flowers". We each gave three fat quarters to the others in the group and could add only 2 fabrics. It was interesting to put so many different fabrics together in one quilt and make them work.
My Cousin, My Friend - I like the secondary pattern created by the bear paw blocks. One month from start to finish for a my cousin and best friend's Christmas gift! Whew!
My Mother, The Star - My first quilt ever and boy was I hooked. Mom has never used it for fear it will get damaged. I handpieced and handquilted it which is my preference.
Carolyn's Converge - I won this beautiful piece of hand dyed fabric at my guild during a Kid's Quilt challenge. I took a class on how to make Ricky Tims Convergence quilt and had it pieced in a day. The borders were cut freehand and I quilted it very simply on my home machine.
April Showers - It's a lovely traditional block and applique quilt. I chose as near as fabric colours as i fell in love with with the picture in the mag. Its a mix of hand applique and quilting with machine applique and quilting especially in the border. I started this in 2005 and finished earlier this year.
