Cruise quilt - hand stitched patchwork. Machine quilted. Started on the balcony during a summer 2009 cruise around the Med. fantastic memories associated with the quilt. Really pleased with result as made up from scraps.

The Neverending U.F.O. - I saw this quilt on Simply Quilts and started it in (I think) 2003. At that time the "Y" seam was WAY out of my skill level. I switched to a paper-pieced version of the same blocks. This quilt took me years to complete as the paper-pieced version of a lemoyne star is a little bit tedious. Worked out well because there's a bigger variety of scraps when you drag it out over so many years!

Jack

Jill - Fell in love with the quilts. I didn't have anyone to make them for at the time, but knew they'ld come in handy. I used Nancy Halvorsen fabrics.

Elegant Star - I fell in love with this quilt. Most of the quilting on it is 1/2 inch apart. I was inspired to do this after taking a machine quilting course from Harriet Hargrave at the 2008 Vermont Quilt Festival. It was very intense and took well over a month to do. The first time I did a scalloped edge.

Country Village - I did this quilt using mostly "dated" Thimbleberries fabric.

Future - no 4 in a series of four. It's waiting for quilting. It has taken me 5 years until I could make it. Picture will come, when it's finished. That's what I wrote last year (2009). Now after a lot of struggle it's finally finished. It's the worst quilt of my life. It has been troubling me since the design came up and it never stopped. At a point I was very near to give up and throw it away, but I gave it one more chance and now it's finished. I had it on my wall for 24 hours. A good friend saw it and fell in love with it, so she brought it home and it is now hanging in her clinic. She is a psychotherapist so a lot of people will get to see it there.

Now - The quilt is the third in a series of four

Chaos - The first in a series of four
