Tea Time Test - These tea pots are from my collection. I photographed the actual tea pots, blew the photos up, and made patterns directly from the photos. It's called "Tea Time Test" because it's an early attempt at applique and machine quilting and I was "testing" my skills.
Mom's Girls - This quilt was made for my mother from fabrics she used in making dresses for my sister and me. The sashing is from skirts belonging to my grandmother, who passed away in 2004.
Sunrise, Sunset - Made at QBL this summer in Anna Hergert's "Discovering Design Sources" class. It's based on a charcoal drawing in the sketch book that I had with me. I did the sketch in 1988, at the age of 12.
Jon's Celestial Quilt - Appliqued sun, moon and stars on Hoffman Celestial fabric. Sun and moon have faces. Quilted using pc quilter robotic system. Corners have sunface quilted pattern, body and borders have star quilted design.
Jonathan's Graduation Photo Quilt - I adapted 2 different quilt patterns in the making of this quilt to make it the size I wanted. This is my first Photo Quilt!
Scrabble - A friend commissioned me to make this quilt as a Christmas gift for his parents who are avid Scrabble players. He chose the words on the quilt - which were inside family jokes.
Rohan - I am a huge Tolkien fan, and my inspiration for this quilt was the people of Rohan who live in a country that is filled with green fields, blue streams and fair-haired people.
