Jenni's Quilt - Jenni's quilt for her new baby. Jenni was a Grade Seven student in my class years ago. Her parents are still good friends of ours, and it seemed a good idea to make her a quilt.

Civil War Patch Stars - This Quilt was made to be used as a rolled cot blanket on the backside of a horse. My son gave it to his girlfriend for her birthday. Somehow it never made it to the horse. I have made several of this size quilt. This one was a lot of fun, a lot of bit's and pieces.

Will's Dream - This Quilt is in Kaye England's pattern book "Somewhere in Time". I started this Quilt as a Cot size quilt and once my son saw how it was turning out, he decided he wanted it for his bed. I love working in 1800 prints and scrap's. This was lot's of fun.

Silas' Baby Quilt - My first grandbaby quilt using basic primary color. I located all the fabrics at Bay Window Quilts Shop in Perham, MN. It was just what I wanted to do for this first babe.

Batik Ladies - We'd just been to Houston, and had to have a memory of Ricky's spectacular work. Strangely, I tuned into Alex's show and thought I saw my quilt at the end of her program. I don't know if someone else had the same idea, or if great minds think alike. It flashed by so quickly, I couldn't really say that it was the same! I liked using his idea as the border for the batiked ladies that I'd picked up in Palm Springs.

The Wedding Quilt - I made this quilt for my special nephew for his wedding. His new wife, Lori, loves quilts and appreciates all the work that goes into one, so I know that this quilt would be appreciated and enjoyed.

Gracie's Baby Quilt - Another baby quilt utilizing Terry Atkinson's design Lucky Stars (Copyright 2002). This quilt was done in primary colors utilizing various fabric collections on the market right now. The background fabric is Vintage Alphabet on cream by Moda.

My Red and White Quilt - My own spin on a general PinWheel pattern...made in my favorite colors....this quilt took second place at the Reno, NV state fair in 1999...this little one is my oldest Granddaughter Siana at the age of 4...this quilt now lives at my sisters house.

Mary Ellens Quilts - This Hugs and Kisses pattern was made into this bright little quilt given by me to a friend as a Thank you present...

Hugs for Susan - Signature quilt made for one of my staff members to comfort her as she underwent treatment for breast cancer.

Eliza's Baby Quilt - This quilt pattern is Lucky Stars by Terry Atkinson (Copyright 2002) of Atkinson Designs. My daughter chose Kaye England's collection "Kaye's Cottage". I quilted it heavily with my Bernina machine and used "Libby Lehman's Bottom Line" on top and bottom. The border was pieced of different solids from the fabric line and bound by machine. I did embroider the baby's name, DOB and Baptismal Date on the front as well as "Grma Judy" on the back. The batting was Warm and Natural. The dense quilting with the Bottom Line did not stiffen the quilt as one might expect, so after washing and tumble drying (yes, it is a baby quilt), the soft effect was perfect for a new baby. This is the 3rd quilt I have made from this pattern and love the process each time I make it.

Candy Galore - I wanted to make a quilt for my nephew that a young boy would like. Who doesn't like candy? I used bright colors to match the colors in the candy printed fabric. I used jelly beans, gumballs, and lollipops as my candied fabric.

Above Healdsburg - I used an aerial photo of my town as the inspiration for this quilt. I experimented with reverse applique to add different layers of fabric. The river fabric was fabric I'd dyed by pouring dye as the fabric hung draped over a rod, which made for a streaky result. I love how it looks like light reflecting off of water.

Hearts and Flowers - This quilt was made for my best friend (over 50 years) for her 62nd birthday.

My Mother's Quilt - My mother hand pieced the blocks on "old domestic" when she was 15 and never did anything with them. In 1997, while preparing to sell their home and move to a retirement community, she threw a plastic bag at me and said, "Here, you are the only one I know who might do something with these.". I had never seen them before. I machine pieced the top and hand-quilted the quilt and then gave it to her for her 83rd birthday. She proudly showed anyone who would look. Sadly, she died in December, 1005. I now have "custody" until my granddaughter who is name after he can appreciate it.

Melissabeth's Garden - A combination of applique, dimensional applique and various blocks which was machine pieced, hand appliqued, machine and hand quilted as the mood struck. Basically is is a medalion quilt with multiple borders.

Spring - This quilt was foundation pieced in the center. Threads creating the "branch" in the border and I made small "dogwood" blossoms using a pen to high light the edges. It took honorable mention in a local quilt contest.
