Sugar Plum Fairy - This quilt was my entry in the Hoffman Challenge this year. It didn't win but it was chosen to travel with the winners. I may not be able to attend the large quilt shows but my quilt will! I was very excited!
Flight School - In the summer of 2006 we had a split second glimpse of a gaggle of geese fly overhead - they were all over the place, bumping into each other. I said "What's wrong with those geese?" My husband said, "They're learning to fly in formation." Light bulb! Of course - Flight School!
Pink Callas - This was made using a new to me technique for curved piecing. Hanging it on point was my son-in-law's idea, and I think it really makes this quilt stand out.
Blue Christmas - I love blue Christmas decorations, so a blue quilt for Christmas seemed obvious. It took me several years to gather the fabrics, but making it was a lot of fun.
Hand Quilting #1 - My first attempt at hand quilting - techniques learned in Deb Southworth's class at Pieceful Hearts fabric store in Lisle, IL and through Roxanne McElroy's book, That Perfect Stitch.
Pastel Animal Trail Quilt - The embroidery designs are from Threadsketches. The background is in white fabric with pastel check fabric for the sashing and binding. It has been embroidered and then machine quilted using my DSM.
Zebra Quilt - I saw a quilt done by Angie of the yahoo group Home Quilting Systems and adapted the rail fence pattern to include the large squares of the Michael Miller Zebra fabric. I raw edge appliqued the Zebras to come out of the squares to give a 3 dimensional effect.
