A Touch of the Orient - Red and Black Sampler quilt machine pieced and quilted by owner. The border of oriental women inspired both the name and style of quilting.
Beautiful Bounty - I saw this project on Simply Quilts, Nov. of 2004. I thought it would be fun to do and it was. It was demonstrated by Rami Kim. It is called the Chop Key Flower Technique.
Redwork - This quilt was made from my guild's August block-of-the-month-any redwork pattern. I won ten ,12 and a half inch blocks. I added 2 more to make this wallhanging.
Tea Pots on Parade - This is a round robin quilt. There were 12 in my group, it took a year to get all the blocks. I set them in a twist and turn pattern.
Fruit and Vegies - Our guild had a workshop for this table runner. I had fruit and vegitable fabric with idea how to use. So I thought, why not! Bright and Happy...
Anna Louisa - Adapted from design by Pat Morris - used with permission. The disintegrating stars show the steady loss of abilities and memories of a person with Alzheimer's disease.
This quilt is in the queue to be auctioned for Art for Alzheimers. It is dedicated to my grandmother, Anna Louisa.
Sudoko - A Variety of Oriental fabrics, with basic directions, and a puzzle to solve for the pattern. Could not resist, since I love doing sudoko puzzles.
Bugs for Jayden - When I saw this fabric in a bundle I had to make this quilt for my grandson. This was my second quilt. The first one was for him too!
Chile Peppas - I loved the fabric and thought it would be fun to make a kaleidescopic dresden plate quilt. It was a lot of fun to make. Here's a little secret ... I had "squishies" behind some of the scattered chile peppers and needed to cover up my errors in learning to machine quilt. The peppers look like they're part of the entire plan. It wasn't part of the plan until I made "squishies" in my machine quilting.
Find the Baby - This is my interpretation of a picture someone sent me on e-mail. I was to find the baby (which I did instantly). Can you find the baby? Anyway, I thought the photo would make a wonderful quilt and I think it did! It took over 40 hours to "snippet" the design.
WOW It's Gunzel - I made this as a class sample and when I finished it I immediately thought of my late father. He loved red. It is machine and hand quilted
John Loves Java - I loved the wacky, off-kilter coffee cups in this pattern and made a wall hanging with many different, bright & coffee-themed fabrics. It hangs in my husband's office.
Hearts - This was a guild workshop project. I used all of my colorful scraps from other projects. I was the only "bright" in my guild at the time. It was very flashy compared to all the others. It lays on our dining room table every February.
Autumn's Quilt - This is my first completed quilt! For the birth of my niece, Autumn, I decided she needed something extra special from Aunt Wanda. I pulled the fabrics from my fabric stash I had accumulated when sewing my daughter’s clothing when she was small.
